I want this oneA website that makes someone comfortable enough to hand you a £40,000 job.
An extension is the most money most people will ever hand to a stranger. Your site’s job is to make you not a stranger.
01 · Your customers
What they’re actually trying to find out
Three questions, usually on a phone, usually in under a minute. A site that answers them wins the job before anyone else is even rung.
01
Have you done one like mine?
A single-storey rear extension, a loft conversion, a garage conversion. They want to see the same job, finished, on a house like theirs.
02
Will you handle the paperwork?
Building regs, planning, party wall agreements. Saying plainly what you take care of removes the biggest worry they have.
03
Are you insured, and will I get a guarantee?
Public liability, and what happens if something goes wrong in two years. People won’t ask, but they will notice if it isn’t said.
02 · What goes on it
What I’d put on a site for builders
Not a template with your logo dropped in. This is what actually earns its place on a site for your trade.
- Finished projects, grouped by type, with photos from more than one angle
- What you handle: regs, planning, party wall, skips, scaffolding
- Insurance and any guarantee you offer, stated plainly
- How a job runs from first visit to handover, in steps
- The area you work in — big jobs are local jobs
- A form that takes a photo and a rough description
03 · Price
What it costs
Business website
A page per service and a proper gallery. Better if you want to be found for each job separately.
