The problem
Nobody picks a trade on looks alone. A trade website has to answer these questions in the first few seconds, or the customer goes back to Google.
Your name, your face, your vans and the towns you cover, where nobody has to look for them.
Google reviews that name the job, and the trade bodies and registrations you really hold, with a link to check.
Real photos of your own work, sorted by job, so a customer can see their kitchen, roof or bathroom in it.
One tap to call or WhatsApp for urgent work, and a short quote form for the jobs people plan in the evening.
What's on your site
Google ranks pages, not businesses. Every job you want more of gets its own page, written in the words people actually type.

yoursite.co.uk/our-work
Before and after photos of your own jobs, sorted so customers find work like theirs.

What it takes from you
Who builds it
There's no account manager and no junior. The two people you talk to are the two people who build your site.
“We will never lie to a client, even when telling the truth costs us money.”

One firm per trade, per area
We take one firm per trade in the town where they're based. It doesn't cover everywhere they're willing to travel. Once we build your website, we won't take on another firm in your trade based in your town. Plenty of designers build for the firm down the road. We won't.
When a town's taken, it's taken.

The guide
Good web design for tradesmen has nothing to do with looking clever. A trade website has three jobs: get found by people searching for your work, get chosen over the two or three other trades they're comparing, and get contacted while they're still on the page. Everything on the site should help with one of those three. Anything that doesn't is decoration.
Most tradesman websites fail at the first job before the other two get a chance. A single page that says "all aspects of building work undertaken" gives Google nothing to match against "loft conversion Rotherham" or "emergency plumber Hillsborough". Then the few people who do land on it have to hunt for a phone number, can't see a single photo of finished work, and leave for the next result.
So when we talk about websites for tradesmen, we mean a site built around the jobs you want more of, in the areas you actually cover, with the proof and the buttons in the places people look for them. That's the whole brief.
Every trade is a bit different (an electrician's site and a landscaper's site sell very different things), but the bones are the same. This is the page list we start from for nearly every trades website design:
On top of the pages, a few features pay for themselves on any trade website: a call button that stays on screen as people scroll on a phone, a WhatsApp link, click-to-call numbers, fast loading on a 4G signal, and a form that tells you instantly when someone's filled it in.
A customer comparing tradesmen online is mostly trying to avoid a cowboy. Your website wins when it removes that worry faster than your competitors' sites do. The proof that does the most work:
Notice that none of this is about fancy design. A clean, simple site with this proof beats a beautiful one without it, every time.
A website for a trade business only earns its keep if people find it. That's why we build every site to be set up for Google from day one, even if you never pay anyone for SEO:
Getting into the map results takes more than a website: it needs your Google Business Profile and reviews working too. If you want that handled every month, that's our Local SEO for tradesmen service.
In the UK you'll see anything from a few pounds a month for a DIY builder to several thousand pounds from a big agency. Roughly:
| Option | What you pay | What to watch |
|---|---|---|
| DIY website builder | A monthly subscription, plus your own time | Evenings and weekends you'd rather spend elsewhere, and the site is only as good as you make it |
| Freelancer or small studio | Usually hundreds to low thousands | Who writes the words, who owns the site, and what happens when you want a change |
| Big agency | Often several thousand, sometimes plus a monthly retainer | Long contracts, and paying for meetings you don't need |
| Monthly "website rental" | A monthly fee for as long as you stay | You often don't own the site, so leaving means starting again |
Ours is The website: £600 in one payment, or 12 monthly payments, with no VAT, no interest and no deposit. You see your homepage design before you pay anything, it's live within 7 days of you approving it, and it's yours outright once paid. The first year's hosting is included, then it's £20 a month if you want us to keep hosting it.

Questions
Something else on your mind? Ask us. You'll get a straight answer from one of us, usually the same day.
Ask us on WhatsAppThere isn't one. We design your homepage for free and send you a link to it within 24 hours. Love it, and we build the rest. Don't, and you owe nothing. No card details and nothing to sign.
Because Tandy & Co is a new business and we're building up our reviews, so we're keeping the price low for now. You still get the full website, written for you, not a cut-down version.
Nothing until you've seen and approved your homepage design. Then it's £600 in one payment, or £50 a month for 12 months by Direct Debit. No VAT, no interest and no deposit.
No. On the monthly plan, if you want to stop early, you pay off the rest and the website's yours.
Your homepage design comes within 24 hours of your answers. Once you've approved it and sent your photos and details, your website is live within 7 days.
No. We write every page from your answers about your jobs, your customers and the areas you cover. You check it all before it goes live.
Real photos of your work. Phone photos are fine, or we can use the ones on your Google or Facebook page, with your say-so. No stock photos of someone else's work.
Your email is left alone, because it runs separately from your website. Your current site stays up until the new one is ready, and the pages that bring you visitors now are pointed to their new addresses.
No honest person can promise you a position, and we won't. Google decides where your pages show up. What we can promise is that your site launches built for Google, with your services and the towns you cover. If you want more from Google after that, Local SEO is there month to month.
Yes. While we host it, small changes are free: send us new photos, wording or jobs on WhatsApp and we'll add them. We build the site and make the changes for you, so there's nothing to learn and nothing to break.
Keep the word of mouth: it's the best work going. But when someone passes on your name, most people still look you up before they ring. Your website is what they find, so it backs up the recommendation instead of putting them off.
Yes. Pay upfront and it's yours from day one. On the monthly plan, it's yours after the 12th payment. Your domain stays in your name throughout.
The first year is included. After that, keep it with us for £20 a month, with small changes free while we host it. Or take your website files and host it anywhere. No lock-in.
Then you owe nothing. If you like the style, we fine-tune the details as we build. If it's not for you at all, we can try a completely different design, or you can walk away.
