Websites for trades & construction
Websites for tradies that make the phone ring. And the right phone.
Builders, electricians, plumbers, roofers, painters, arborists, steel fabricators. Your customers are on a phone, they need someone now or they’re planning something big, and they’ll pick whoever looks most capable in about four seconds. We build sites that pass that test and qualify the jobs you actually want. Free preview before you pay, fixed quote before you commit.

What matters
Five things a website for tradies and builders has to get right.
Built for a thumb, not a mouse
Most of your customers find you on a phone, often standing in the problem. Click-to-call at the top, a quote form that takes twenty seconds, and pages that load before they give up.
Real work, not stock photos
Nobody believes a stock photo of a smiling electrician. Your actual jobs, your van, your team, shot on a phone if need be and arranged so they do the selling.
Service areas, spelled out
“We cover Rototuna, Flagstaff and Cambridge” wins the local search and stops the calls from two hours away. We build a page for every area you actually work.
Qualify before they call
A high-end builder and an emergency plumber need opposite websites. One filters for serious projects, the other for speed. We work out which you are and build accordingly.
Reviews, front and centre
For trades, Google reviews are the decision. We wire in a simple way to ask every happy customer and display the results where they count.

Case study
Matthew Palmer Construction
A high-end residential builder whose old presence made him look like every other trade site. The new one puts the buildings first, the range in the headline, and gets him compared with architects rather than the cheapest quote.

Getting found, then getting more
A website is step one. Here’s how the next steps usually look for tradies and builders.
SEO
Local SEO (Google Business Profile, suburb pages, reviews) is the highest-return marketing for most tradies and builders, for a fixed monthly fee.
Ads
Google Ads work brilliantly for urgent trades (blocked drain, no power, roof leak) because people search the moment it happens. For planned work like renovations and landscaping, SEO and a strong portfolio do more per dollar. A management fee you know before you start.

Straight answers
Trades & construction questions, answered.
How much is a tradie website?
A business website with written copy, enquiry forms, service-area pages and local SEO foundations is our most common build, and it comes in under the typical NZ agency range. You get a fixed written quote after the free preview. How we work out the number.
I’m booked out. Why do I need a website?
Because booked out doesn’t last, and because the jobs you want (bigger, better-paying, closer to home) go to the business that looks most capable online. A good site lets you choose your work instead of taking what comes.
Can you get me on Google Maps?
Yes. Google Business Profile setup and optimisation is part of local SEO, and the foundations are included in every website build.
Do I have to write anything?
No. Twenty minutes on the phone about what you do and where you go is enough. We write it, you check it.
Should I run Google Ads?
If your work is urgent, probably yes. We’ll estimate what a lead would cost you first. If it’s planned work, we’ll usually suggest SEO before ads.
