subcontractor website design

Subcontractor website design built around your trade, not the word "construction"

Subcontractor website design ranks by targeting the specific trade by name, concrete, framing, electrical rough-in or another single scope, rather than competing under the broad word "construction" against every general contractor in the area.

Who it is for

Who is subcontractor website design for?

Specialty and trade contractors, such as concrete, framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing and drywall, who win work both from general contractors hiring subs and from owners hiring directly.

Ground conditions

Signs you need it

  • GCs have to call to confirm you are licensed and insured.

  • Your site talks about "construction services" rather than your trade.

  • You cannot tell from an enquiry whether it is a GC or a homeowner.

  • Your project photos do not show the scope you actually performed.

01

Trade-specific pages, not a catch-all

A page built around "construction services" competes against general contractors for a term it cannot win. Pages built around the specific trade compete in a much smaller, much more relevant field, where the buyer for that exact trade is actually searching.

02

Speaking to homeowners, commercial clients and hiring GCs separately

A homeowner, a commercial client and a general contractor evaluating a new sub are three different audiences with three different concerns. Separate pages address each, rather than one page trying to speak to all three at once.

Three buyers, three pages: homeowners; commercial clients; hiring general contractors. The form asks who is enquiring.

03

Licenses, certifications and insurance, clearly placed

A general contractor deciding whether to bring on a new sub looks specifically for licenses, certifications and insurance. A dedicated page puts that information where it is expected, rather than buried in a footer or missing entirely.

Risk, reversed

What if the site does not deliver?

Then the work continues at our cost, not yours. The guarantees below are written into our terms, with their limits stated as plainly as the promises.

  • The build fee comes last

    The $697 build fee is invoiced only after your site is live and you have told us you are satisfied with it.

  • 90+ PageSpeed, guaranteed

    On mobile and desktop for pages we build and host. If a page falls below it because of our work, we fix it at no charge.

  • Local rankings in a stated window

    If your site is not ranking for local searches in your area within 3 to 5 months of launch, we keep doing the search work at no extra charge until it is.

  • Your domain, your content

    The domain is registered in your name. Leave, and we transfer it free and export your content within 14 days.

  • No long contract

    Month to month. Cancel by email with 2 business days notice before your next invoice and no further invoice is raised.

  • The limits, plainly

    Neither guarantee covers changes you or third parties make, content published against our advice, or rankings for terms outside your area or services. The remedy is the corrective work, not a refund: all sales are final, except a duplicate or incorrect charge made by us. Full detail in the terms and the refund policy.

Client reviews

Client reviews from contractors like you

  • We expected a prettier website; what we actually use every day is the new form. It asks for project location, work scope and proposed start month before anything is sent, which is the information we used to chase by email. The first message is usually enough to act on now.
    Monica NewburyOperations coordinator, Structural alteration specialistStamford, CT · Foundation plan

    Inquiry form and response workflow for renovation inquiries

  • Our deliberately awkward question was: what if the renovation inquiries form breaks? The answer became a published fallback plus a delivery check we can run ourselves. We now know the fallback exists before the day we need it.
    Kirsten GrenvilleFront office supervisor, Timber frame extension specialistCedar Rapids, IA · Foundation plan

    Contact resilience and delivery checks for renovation inquiries

  • We reviewed the draft on handsets rather than a big screen, deliberately. Key information comes first and the contact option is clearly labeled. The days of talking customers through the menu are over.

Questions about subcontractor website design

Should we build around our trade name or "construction services"?

Your trade name. A page built around "construction services" competes against every general contractor in the area, while a page named for your specific trade competes in a much smaller, more relevant field.

Can the site speak to general contractors hiring us as a sub?

Yes, through a dedicated GC partnership page addressing reliability, scheduling and repeat work, separate from the homeowner-facing pages.

Where do licenses and insurance appear?

On their own clearly labeled page, where a general contractor evaluating a new sub looks for that information specifically.

Can the quote form distinguish a homeowner from a GC enquiry?

Yes. The form asks who is enquiring, so the routed request and first reply match the relationship.

Do subcontractors need a website?

If you want work beyond your existing GC relationships, yes. General contractors check a sub's licensing, insurance and past scopes online, and owners search by trade and town.

Can the site help us get on GC bid lists?

It helps by making prequalification easy: a GC partnership page with your trade scopes, licenses, insurance, safety information and capacity, and a form for bid invitations.

Should each trade scope have its own page?

Yes, if you perform several. A concrete contractor doing foundations, flatwork and decorative work reaches three different buyers with three pages.

Can the quote form route GC and homeowner enquiries differently?

Yes. The form asks who is enquiring, and the enquiry can be tagged or routed differently in your CRM.
