How much does an auto repair website cost?
+
We quote one fixed price, agreed before work starts, based on the number of pages, features, integrations and content. You get it within 1 business day of a free audit of your current site. There is no hourly billing, and the hosting sits in your own account, not ours.
How long does it take to build an auto repair website?
+
Most repair shop sites take 4 to 8 weeks. Sites for several locations or with many service area pages take 8 to 12 weeks. You get a dated week-by-week plan before we start and a written update every week.
Can you connect online booking to Tekmetric, Shopmonkey or Mitchell 1?
+
Yes. We place the scheduler or request form from the shop system you run, add a plain link fallback, track each booking and test it with a real appointment before launch. We do not replace your shop software.
If I switch shop software, does my website break?
+
No. The website is separate from your shop system. If you move to another product, we swap the booking widget and keep everything else, including the pages that rank.
Do I need a website if my Google Business Profile already has great reviews?
+
Yes. Google can suspend or change a profile, and a mechanic on r/GoogleMyBusiness describes exactly that happening. Ads and AI tools need a page that answers the job being searched, such as brake repair with your warranty and diagnostic fee. And a profile cannot take a repair request with a photo or book into your scheduler. The profile gets you on the shortlist; the site turns the click into a repair order.
Should I post prices on my website?
+
It is your choice. Most shops do well with a middle path: starting prices for common jobs with what changes them, plus your labor rate, diagnostic fee and warranty, worded so the site never suggests that an online request is a written estimate.
Do I own the website, domain and content?
+
Yes, from day one. Code, design, content, domain, hosting and analytics accounts are in your name. There is no lock-in, so you can take the site to another developer at any time.
My site is rented from a marketing vendor. Can you move it?
+
Yes. We first find out who controls the domain, the Google accounts and the tracking numbers, then plan the move, keep the URLs that rank, redirect the rest and set up tracking before launch. We check that your name, address, phone and hours still match your Google profile afterward.
Will a new website get my phone ringing?
+
We do not guarantee rankings or lead numbers. What a new site changes is how many visitors book or ask: a page per service, online booking for fixed jobs, a repair request for symptoms, fast mobile pages and tracking that shows which page produced each repair order. On a rooftop solar installer's site (not a repair shop), the same approach took tracked enquiries from none to 7 to 10 a week.
I am a mobile mechanic with no shop. Can a website still get me found?
+
Yes. Google's guidelines say businesses that travel to customers use one service-area Business Profile with the address hidden, so the website does the work a storefront would. That means a page per service, service area pages for the towns you actually cover, your hours and phone, and a request form that asks where the car is. We never publish a home address.
I have several shops. One website or several?
+
One website, with a page and an AutoRepair schema entity for each location, its own hours and phone, and a booking form that starts with the location. Each shop keeps its own Google Business Profile.
Can the website help me win fleet accounts?
+
It can make you easy to choose. A fleet page with services, onboarding and billing terms you offer, plus a separate fleet request form routed to the right person, gives a fleet manager what a retail page does not.
How does my shop show up in ChatGPT and Google AI answers?
+
AI assistants lean on your Google profile, your reviews and your own site. We write your services, makes, hours, warranty and certifications as plain text, add AutoRepair schema per location and answer the questions drivers ask. No one can guarantee an AI mention, but a consistent, specific site gives assistants something accurate to cite.
What makes you different from another auto repair web design company?
+
We put the terms in writing first: a fixed quote in 1 business day, a dated plan, your ownership of everything and no lock-in. The build covers two booking paths, a how we work page, warranty and pricing pages, state rule wording and tracking by source, and we tell you plainly that we have not built for a repair shop before.
