Work like theirs
People want to read about extensions, lofts and renovations like the one they're planning: what was built, how long it took, what went well.
An extension is one of the biggest things a household ever pays for, and people check a builder out properly before they ring. We build you a site that answers their questions and shows you're established, live in 24 hours, then look after it for £99 a month.
Building work is expensive, disruptive and hard to undo, so homeowners and commercial clients do their homework. Your site should make that homework easy.

Big jobs are quoted after a visit. Spelling out your process (site visit, written quote, payment stages) answers the question everyone has.

Memberships such as the Federation of Master Builders or TrustMark, your insurance and how long you've been trading, stated plainly and only if true.
A short about page with the people who'll actually turn up and run the job.
Good builders are booked ahead. Saying when you're taking jobs from stops time-wasting on both sides.
Where most builders' sites start. Add the work you're known for and drop what you don't do.
The shape of the home page we'd build you. The firm here is made up.

If you offer an insurance-backed guarantee or a warranty, explain what it covers and for how long.

Most building work still comes from recommendations. Your site is where those recommendations go to check you out.
