How much does a contractor website cost?
+
We give a fixed quote, agreed before work starts, based on the pages, features, integrations and content your firm needs. You get it within 1 business day of a short call, with a free audit of your current site. There is no hourly billing.
How long does website design for general contractors and remodelers take?
+
Most sites take 4 to 8 weeks. Sites with many project-type, cost guide and town pages take 8 to 12 weeks. You get a dated week-by-week plan and weekly written updates.
What makes remodeling contractor web design different from a regular small business site?
+
The sale. A remodel is researched for weeks, decided with a spouse and sold through a consultation, a design step and a fixed-price contract. So the site needs a page per project type, case studies with town and budget band, cost ranges, a how-we-work page and a consultation booking flow. A template built for one-call trades has none of that.
Do I need a website if most of my work comes from referrals?
+
Referrals still look you up before they call. BrightLocal found 18% of people who passed on a local business could not find a website. Your site is where a referral sees your projects, team, process and reviews and decides to call you.
Should I put prices on my remodeling website?
+
Not fixed prices, but cost ranges by project type and tier with what drives the number. Unclear pricing is one of the top reasons people pass on a local business, and ranges filter out buyers whose budget does not fit before you drive out.
Can the website send leads into Buildertrend, JobTread or Houzz Pro?
+
Yes. All three offer embeddable lead forms that create the lead in your account. We style the form to match your site, add the qualifying fields you want and track every submission in GA4.
Which platform do you build contractor websites on?
+
We name the platform in your written scope before you sign, chosen for what your office will actually update: most remodelers need a CMS where anyone can add a finished project, its photos, town and scope from a phone. If you already run a site you like, the free audit tells you whether to keep it. Whatever we use, the code, content and accounts are yours and can move to another developer.
Will I own my website and domain?
+
Yes, from day one: code, design, content, domain, analytics, Search Console and your Business Profile. There is no lock-in and no minimum term. After 30 days of free support you can choose an optional care plan or run the site yourself.
I rent my site from a marketing company on a 12-month term. Can I switch?
+
Usually, yes. Check your contract for domain ownership and exit terms first. We help you get the domain into your name, rebuild the pages that bring consultations and redirect every old URL, so search engines and old links land on the matching new page.
Do I need a page for every town I work in?
+
No. Google's spam policy names city pages that funnel visitors to one page as doorway abuse. We build a service area page and a small set of projects-in-town pages backed by real local jobs and photos.
Will my site show up in ChatGPT and Google's AI answers?
+
Nobody can guarantee that. We build what AI systems tend to cite: specific project-type and cost pages, a clear process, credentials stated as facts, GeneralContractor schema and consistent business profiles.
Should my contractor license number be on my website?
+
In many states, yes. California, Florida and Washington require the license or registration number in advertising. We put it in the footer of every page and on your estimate forms, and check your state's rule before launch.
What if clients do not want their homes shown online?
+
We add a photo and testimonial release to your project closeout, label projects by town rather than street and can show interior-only shots. Detailed case studies then do the work an in-home tour would.
Do you do construction company web development for GCs with commercial work?
+
Yes. Commercial work gets its own section with tenant improvement and build-out pages, project sheets, capabilities and an RFP or plan upload form, kept separate from the homeowner consultation flow.
