Websites and SEO for
contractors & home services.

Homeowners pick a contractor in about five minutes on their phone. They look at your photos, check your reviews, see if you serve their town, and either call you or the next guy. We build sites and local SEO for trades and home service companies that win that five minutes. Across Halton, Peel and the GTA.

Free consultation: we look at your current site and Google Business Profile and tell you straight what’s worth fixing. No pitch, no obligation.

What makes trades
websites different

You don’t need a fancy site. You need one that gets the phone ringing with the right jobs, in the towns you actually want to drive to.

Urgent or seasonal

A burst pipe or a dead furnace is a same-hour decision. Spring is landscaping season, fall is furnace season. Your site has to be ready for both kinds of customer.

Proof sells the job

Real project photos, before-and-afters, licensing and insurance. Homeowners want to see your work and know you’re legit before they let you in the house.

Service area

You serve eight towns but only rank in one. Service area pages done properly, not a list of town names in the footer, fix that.

Pages that bring
in jobs

One page per service you want more of, backed by real photos and the towns you serve. These are the usual starting points by trade.

Electricians and other trades

Searches like: electrician for panel upgrade, EV charger installation, pot lights

Service pages for the jobs you want more of, with your licence number shown and permits explained in plain language.

Service area pages

Searches like: roofer Milton, landscaping Georgetown, plumber Burlington

A real page for each main town you serve, with jobs you’ve done there, not a copy-and-paste page with the town name swapped.

Contractor website design
and SEO services

Everything a trade or home service business needs to show up, look credible and turn searches into booked jobs.

Contractor website design

Fast, mobile-first sites with click-to-call everywhere, quote request forms that ask the right questions, and project galleries you can add to yourself from your phone. See our website design work.

Local SEO for trades

Keyword research by service and town, one page per service, internal links that tell Google which page owns which job, and service area pages built properly.

Google Business Profile

Categories, services, service area, photos and posts on your Google Business Profile. For most trades the map pack brings in more calls than the website does, so we treat it as part of the job.

Reviews and reputation

Simple systems to ask happy customers for reviews after each job, and help responding to the bad ones without making it worse.

Quote forms and lead tracking

Forms that collect the photos, address and details you need to quote, and call tracking so you know which pages and searches are bringing in the work.

Maintenance and seasonal updates

Updates, backups and security handled, plus seasonal changes like swapping spring promos for snow removal, done for you. See maintenance & hosting.

Built to earn trust fast

Homeowners are wary of contractors they find online. A few things make a big difference to whether they call:

Fixed quotes.
No mystery invoices.

Every build gets a fixed, itemized quote before any work starts. Our $999 starter package covers three pages, template builds start around $1,500, fully custom sites run $3,000 to $6,000+, and online stores start at $4,000. SEO and Google Business Profile work is quoted separately, month to month, with no long-term contract. Not sure what you need? The free consultation includes a look at the site you have now.

FAQ

How much does a contractor website cost?

A small trades business can start with our $999 three-page starter or a template build from around $1,500. A full custom site with separate service pages, galleries and service area pages usually runs $3,000 to $6,000. Every quote is fixed and itemized before work starts.

Can I add project photos myself?

Yes. We set up the gallery so you can add photos from your phone after each job. Fresh project photos are one of the best things you can do for your site and your Google profile.

What happened to your landscaping page?

Landscaping now lives here with the rest of the home service trades. Everything we offered landscape companies, from before-and-after galleries to seasonal SEO, is still part of what we do.

Do I need a page for every town I serve?

Only for the towns you really want work in, and only if each page has something real on it, like jobs you’ve done there. Thin copy-and-paste town pages can hurt you more than help.

How long does local SEO take for a contractor?

Google Business Profile and map pack improvements often show in 1 to 3 months. Ranking a service page in a competitive town, like roofing in Oakville or Mississauga, usually takes 4 to 9 months.

Do you work with contractors outside Halton?

Yes. Most of our trades clients are in Halton and Peel, but we work across the GTA and further out remotely.
