Contractor Website Design and Hosting

Homeowners Hire What They Can See

People rarely hire a contractor off a phone number alone. They want to see work you have done. A good contractor website puts your best jobs up front, with clear photos and a line or two about each one.

We sort your gallery by type of work. Kitchens go in one place and roofs in another. Decks and additions get their own spots. A homeowner planning a new bathroom can find bathrooms fast, without scrolling past everything else.

Before and after shots work well when you have them. So do photos taken during the job, since they show how you work and how you leave a site.

Put Your License and Insurance Where People Look

Many homeowners check that a contractor is licensed and insured before they call. Make that easy. We add your license number and insurance info to the footer and to your about page. If your state has a site where people can look up a license, we can link to it so they can check for themselves.

This small step can settle a doubt before it costs you a lead.

List the Towns You Actually Work In

Search engines match contractors to places. A page that says where you work helps both people and Google. We build a service area section that names the towns and counties you cover. If you do a lot of work in one area, it can get its own page with jobs from that area.

We keep it honest. We only list places you really serve.

Estimate Requests With Photos

The best estimate form asks a few simple questions and lets people send photos. A picture of a sagging deck or a stained ceiling tells you a lot before you drive out. The form sends each request to your business email with the photos attached or linked.

Keep the form short. Ask for name, phone, address, type of job, a short note, and photos. You can ask the rest on the call.

Plan for Busy and Slow Seasons

Most trades have a rhythm. Roofing and siding pick up when the weather is good. Interior work may carry you through winter. Your site can shift with you. We can feature the work you want more of each season, or add a note when your schedule is booked out for a while.

What Your Site Runs On

• Domain. Your company name, or a clear short version of it. See domains and our tips on picking a domain name.
• Hosting. Galleries hold a lot of photos. We size them so pages stay quick, and we host them on fast servers. See hosting.
• Email. Addresses like [email protected] or [email protected]. Estimates sent from your own domain look more professional than a free inbox. See email.
• SSL. A secure link for every page and form, so the browser does not warn visitors away. See SSL.

We also set up the records that help your emails land in the inbox and not in spam. Our guide on SPF, DKIM and DMARC explains what those are.

What We Need From You

• Photos of past jobs, the more the better
• Your license number and insurance details
• The towns you serve and the work you want more of

We handle the rest. See pricing or contact us to get started.

Common Questions

Do I need a website if I get most jobs by word of mouth?

Yes, because people who hear your name will look you up before they call. A site with your past work and license info backs up what they heard.

Can customers send photos with their estimate request?

Yes. We build estimate forms that accept photos and send them to your business email.

How many project photos should I have?

Start with your best work in each type of job you want more of. You can add more jobs any time, and we can help you do it.

Should I show my license number on my site?

In most cases, yes. It helps homeowners trust you, and some states have rules about showing it in ads, so check what your state requires.

Can you move my site from another host?

Yes. We move your pages, email and domain with care so nothing goes dark. See our guide on moving off GoDaddy.
