Builder website design that wins the big job.
Extensions and renovations are the most researched purchase a homeowner makes short of the house itself. They will read everything you have before they ring. £50 every four weeks with no build fee, covering hosting, edits and upkeep.
An illustration of the kind of site we build, your work, your name, your area
Sitework builds hand-coded, mobile-first websites for UK builders for £50 every four weeks with no build fee, covering hosting, unlimited edits and upkeep. You see free mockups of your business before you pay a penny, and the site is yours after twelve months.
Why builders need a website
Nobody spends forty thousand pounds on the strength of a Facebook page.
A builder is asking a customer for more money than any other trade, and that customer behaves accordingly. They will look you up, read reviews, check you are a real company, look for finished work like theirs and want to know you will still exist in eighteen months. Your own website is where your finished projects, your accreditations and your process live in one place you control. It ranks for "builder" plus your town, and it sends the enquiry to you without a lead fee attached.
Built for your trade
Get found for every job you do.
Homeowners search the project, not the trade: "loft conversion cost", "single storey extension builder", "garage conversion near me". Each one gets its own section so it can rank on its own terms.
Built to get found locally
Every site ships with clean titles, local-business and FAQ schema, a sitemap and fast mobile loading, the groundwork that helps you appear when someone searches "builders near me" or your trade plus your town. Membership of the Federation of Master Builders, registration with NHBC or another warranty provider, a TrustMark listing or CIOB membership all shorten the distance between a quote and a signature. Where you hold them, they go near the top of the page.
If you work across several towns rather than one, each one can have its own page rather than a list of place names crammed into the footer. That is what the Sussex town pages do, and the same approach works anywhere in the UK. It is included from the Groundwork plan upwards.
What it costs, and how it compares
A builder website from Sitework is £50 every four weeks with no build fee, versus the £1,500, £5,000 agencies quote. Here is how the usual options stack up.
| Option | Upfront | Ongoing | You own it? | Builds trust? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sitework | £0, no build fee | £50/4wks, everything in | Yes | Credentials, reviews & services |
| Directory (Checkatrade etc.) | Setup fee | ~£100+/mo plus lead fees | No, it's their platform | Shared listing, not a site |
| DIY builder (Wix, Squarespace) | £0, £150 | £14, £40/mo | Yes | Only if you build & maintain it |
| Traditional agency | £1,500, £5,000 | Hosting extra, edits billed | Yes | Yes, but you pay up front |
Directory and agency figures are typical UK ranges, not fixed quotes, lead fees on trade directories vary by trade and area. Sitework has no lead fees: hosting, SSL, backups and unlimited small edits are included in the £50 every four weeks. That is thirteen payments a year, not twelve.
