WEB DESIGN FOR CONTRACTORS
Contractor Websites Built to Win the Jobs Worth Winning
Word of mouth built your business, but word of mouth has a ceiling. The bigger jobs, the general contracts, the customers who compare three bids before calling anyone: those people check your website first, and they judge the build quality of your site the way you judge someone else's framing.
Skald Studio designs contractor websites from scratch. Real project galleries instead of stock photos, license and insurance credentials where they build trust, and the local search structure that puts you in front of people actively planning a project. You own the finished code outright.
What Usually Goes Wrong
The referral ceiling
Referrals are gold, but they only reach people who already know someone you worked for. A contractor website that ranks brings in the jobs your network never hears about.
Your work is invisible
You have hundreds of photos of finished projects on a phone somewhere. Organized into a proper gallery with locations and scope details, they are the most persuasive sales tool you own.
Trust decides bids
Licensing, insurance, years in business, real reviews: buyers look for reasons to shortlist you or scratch you off. We design contractor website layouts that put proof in front of doubt.
Big-job buyers do homework
A kitchen remodel or an addition is a five-figure decision. Those buyers read service pages, compare portfolios, and check every credential. Thin websites lose bids before you ever hear about them.

Common Questions
How much does a contractor website cost?
Our Starter build is $2,500 for up to five custom pages: home, services, project gallery, about, contact. Contractors who want per-service or per-city pages and a CMS run $6,500. One decent job covers it.
Can you show examples of contractor website design?
Yes. Our portfolio includes work for trade and product businesses, and on the discovery call we will walk through builds relevant to your trade, plus exactly how we would structure yours.
Do you handle plumbing, HVAC, and other specialty trades?
Yes. General contractors, remodelers, roofers, plumbers, electricians, lawn and landscape companies. The structure changes by trade, which is exactly why we do not use templates.
What about getting found on Google?
Local SEO is built into the site structure from the start: the pages, headings, schema, and speed that local rankings are made of. Ongoing SEO campaigns are available after launch if you want to press the advantage.
