Trade Services + Website Refresh

Turn your website into a booking machine

When a homeowner Googles 'plumber in Darlington' or 'electrician near me', your website has about ten seconds to convince them to call. Make those seconds count.

Most trade service websites were built cheap and it shows. A template site with stock photos, a generic service list, and a contact form. Maybe a few reviews copied and pasted from Google. The result looks the same as every other plumber, electrician, or joiner website in the area.

The problem is homeowners and landlords use your website to decide whether to trust you in their home. They're checking that you're legitimate, that you serve their area, that other people have had good experiences, and that getting in touch is easy. If your site doesn't answer those questions quickly, they hit the back button and call someone else.

For trade businesses, a good website isn't about looking fancy. It's about building trust fast. Reviews, service areas, accreditations, and a clear way to make contact. That's what converts visitors into bookings.

We build trade websites that generate calls and bookings from local customers.

Real reviews pulled from Google automatically. Service area pages for every town you cover. Clear service descriptions with transparent pricing where appropriate. Click-to-call buttons that work on mobile. Online booking forms that let customers schedule without a phone call. And fast load times so you don't lose impatient visitors.

Our Process

1

We document your full service range, service areas, and unique selling points to build a clear site structure.

We sit down with you (or jump on a call) and map everything: every service you offer, every area you cover, your accreditations, your guarantees, and what makes you different from the other traders in the area. This becomes the blueprint for your new site.

We plan dedicated pages for each service and each key area, because "plumber in Sunderland" and "plumber in Durham" are different searches and need different pages.

2

Mobile-first design with prominent reviews, accreditations, and contact options on every page.

Over 70% of people searching for local trades are on their phone. Your site needs to load fast and make it obvious how to contact you. Click-to-call buttons, a WhatsApp link, and an online booking form all within the first screen.

Reviews from Google are pulled in automatically so they're always current. Accreditation badges (Gas Safe, NICEIC, TrustMark, Checkatrade) are displayed prominently. Trust signals on every page.

3

Fast, reliable site with online booking, review integration, and a CMS you can update yourself.

We build your site to load in under two seconds. Online booking forms connect to your calendar or send you an email with the booking details. Review widgets pull from Google automatically. The CMS lets you add new service pages or update pricing without needing us.

We handle the domain setup, Google Search Console verification, and any redirects from your old site so you don't lose existing search visibility.

Common Concerns

I already get enough work through word of mouth and Checkatrade.

That's great, but you're paying Checkatrade for leads that you could generate yourself. A good website ranking in Google for your local area brings in free enquiries month after month. Many of our trade clients reduce or eliminate their Checkatrade spend within six months of launching a proper website because they don't need it anymore.

I'm not tech savvy. I can't maintain a website.

You don't need to be. We set everything up so reviews pull through automatically and your key content rarely needs changing. If you do want to update something, the CMS is as simple as editing a Word document. And we're always a phone call away if you need a hand.

Websites are expensive and I'm not sure it'll pay for itself.

Let's do the maths. If your average job is worth £250 and a website brings you just two extra bookings a month, that's £500 a month in revenue. Over a year, that's £6,000 from a website that costs a fraction of that to build. Most of our trade clients see a return within the first few months.
