Phone-ringing sites for tradespeople.

We build websites for plumbers, electricians, roofers, gas engineers, locksmiths, decorators, and home-services trades that need to show up in local search, win emergency calls, and make it dead simple for a mobile visitor to tap and call.

Where it goes wrong

Trade customers usually need someone quickly and choose from the first few results. These are the problems that lose those calls.

What's broken today

  • Your site takes 6 seconds to load on mobile and visitors leave before the phone number even appears
  • No emergency pages, so you miss the highest-intent calls of the day
  • Checkatrade and Yell rank above your own site, even for your own business name
  • A contact form is your only call to action; on mobile, the phone number should be the hero

What we ship instead

  • Pages aim to load the main content in under 2 seconds, so the call button is there almost instantly
  • Emergency pages targeting '24 hour [trade] [town]' searches
  • Working toward a spot in the Google Maps box for your core trade in your main towns (depends on competition and reviews)
  • Review structured data, accreditations, and a mobile-first call to action stack

Mobile first means a click-to-call hero

Most trade traffic is mobile, and a big chunk is emergency. We design every hero around a giant tap-to-call button, the phone number written as plain text (not an image, so Google can read it), a one-line trust signal (Gas Safe, NICEIC, 24/7), and your service area. Everything else sits below the fold.

  • Tap-to-call button pinned above the fold
  • Phone number as plain text so Google can show it in results
  • Accreditation logos that link out so people can verify them
  • Average response time stated up front

Separate emergency and standard-rate pages

We build a parallel set of emergency pages ('Emergency Plumber [Town]', '24 Hour Electrician [Town]') with their own messaging, pricing tone, and trust copy. They rank fast because the intent is obvious and most competitors write generic copy.

Reviews, accreditations, and the proof stack

Gas Safe, NICEIC, NAPIT, Worcester Accredited, Trustpilot, Checkatrade, Google reviews. We pull these into one proof bar and add the structured data Google needs so review stars are eligible to appear in search results (Google decides when to show them).

Quoting and callout pricing shown honestly

Trade buyers are wary of hidden callout charges and vague 'quote on request' pages. We build a pricing guidance page that states typical price ranges by job type, callout charges, and what affects the final quote, so visitors are not left guessing before they call. This reduces time-wasting enquiries from people whose budget was never realistic.

  • Typical price ranges shown by job type
  • Callout charge and minimum job size stated upfront
  • Clear explanation of what changes the final quote

Repeat business and maintenance contract pages

Boilers need servicing, gutters need clearing, alarms need testing. We build maintenance contract pages that turn one-off callouts into recurring revenue, with a simple sign-up flow and reminder emails handled outside the site. This is often the highest-margin work a trade business can build, and it rarely gets its own page on a typical tradesperson's site.

Questions

No. The mobile-first one-page version of this build is the best-value site a sole trader can buy. We size the scope to the business.

That is the goal. Structured data, internal linking, and a proper About and Reviews page on your own domain are designed to push your site above directory listings for your own brand name over time.

A 4 to 6 page mobile-first trade site can launch in 2 to 3 weeks. Local SEO then keeps building for 60 to 120 days after.

Yes. We build maintenance contract pages with a simple sign-up flow, which is often the highest-margin work a trade business can offer and rarely gets its own page on a typical site.
