Web Design for Tradespeople

WEB DESIGN FOR TRADESPEOPLE

Lead-generating websites built for UK tradespeople. Plumbers, electricians, builders, joiners — sites that show up on Google Maps, work on every phone, and turn visitors into bookings.

01 / WHY SPECIALIST

Why Tradespeople Need a Specialist Web Designer

Most tradespeople I've worked with were getting hammered by Checkatrade fees, paying middlemen for leads they should be getting direct. A proper website with local SEO and Google Business Profile setup gets you found by customers in your area — without the percentage cuts.

02 / WHAT YOU NEED

What Your Website Actually Needs

01

Quote Request Form

A simple form on every page that captures name, postcode and job type — no 12-field monsters. Quotes hit your phone instantly via email and SMS.

02

Service Area Map

Postcodes you cover, drawn on a map. Stops time-wasters from outside your area while showing local customers you're nearby.

03

Photo Gallery of Recent Jobs

Before/after photos build instant trust. I'll set up a structure where you can drop in new job photos via your phone in seconds.

04

Google Reviews Embedded

Live Google review feed on the homepage. New 5-star review on Google = automatic update on the site. Massive trust signal.

05

Click-to-Call Phone Button

On mobile (where 80% of trade enquiries come from), a permanent floating call button. Customer taps once, you're on the phone.

06

Emergency Service Highlighting

If you do 24/7 callouts, a hero bar across the top advertising it. Emergency searches convert at 5-10x normal rates.

04 / FAQ

Tradespeople Web Design FAQs

How much does a website cost for a tradesperson?

Starter sites for tradespeople begin at £499 — perfect for a single-trade business. Includes 5 pages (home, about, services, gallery, contact), mobile-first design, quote form, Google Maps integration. Professional package at £999 adds a CMS so you can update jobs and reviews yourself, plus full Google Business Profile setup.

Will my trades website rank for local searches?

Local SEO is built into every site: schema markup with your service areas, Google Business Profile setup and optimisation, location-targeted page content, page-speed optimisation, and proper local citations. Most tradespeople I work with hit page 1 for their main local keyword within 8-12 weeks.

Can the website handle multiple trades or services?

Yes — sites can be structured around multiple service categories (e.g. emergency callouts, installations, repairs, maintenance) each with their own dedicated landing page that ranks separately. Useful if you cover boilers, gas safety, and bathroom installs as separate keywords.

Do I need a separate phone line for the website?

No — your existing mobile or business number works. The site uses a tel: link so customers tap once on mobile to call you. If you want call tracking, that can be added separately for £15/month so you know which marketing channel is generating which calls.

How fast can the website be live?

Starter trades sites typically launch in 2 weeks (sooner if you have content ready). Professional sites with a CMS take 3-4 weeks. Emergency turnaround possible if you've just lost a website or are pivoting from a directory.

What happens if Google Business Profile gets suspended?

Suspensions on trades GBPs are common and usually fixable. If yours gets suspended (or you've already had it suspended), I'll help with the reinstatement appeal as part of the Professional package. Most reinstatements take 1-3 weeks.
