Yes. The site, the copy, the images we produce for it and the domain are yours. We hand over access at launch, and you're not locked into us to keep it running. That's stated in your project agreement rather than assumed.
Contractor website design
A website that sells the job before you quote it.
Custom website design for contractors and local service businesses anywhere in the United States — $2,500 for five pages, $300 for each one after that. Built out of Stephens City, Virginia, for crews who want a site that pulls its weight instead of sitting there looking nice.

Why contractors are different
Your website has one job: turn a stranger with a leaking roof into a booked appointment.
Websites for contractors don't get browsed. They get scanned — on a phone, in a driveway, by somebody comparing you to two other names they found ninety seconds ago.
That changes what a site has to do. It has to load fast on one bar of signal. It has to say what you do and where you do it above the fold. It has to put your phone number where a thumb already is. And it has to look like a company that shows up on time — because that's the only evidence a stranger has before they call.
We build for that reality instead of designing something pretty and hoping. Every page is laid out around the decision the visitor is actually making, and every one of them ends with an obvious next step.

What the five pages usually look like
Most trades do their best work with a tight, focused site. A typical build: Home, Services, About, Reviews & Work, and Contact. That's enough to answer every question a first-time visitor has without making them hunt.
Need a separate page for each service you offer — roof replacement, roof repair, gutters — because that's how people search? That's exactly what the $300 add-on pages are for. Priced before we build them, never after.
The on-page SEO foundations, specifically
"SEO foundations" gets used as a shrug by a lot of agencies, so here's what it means on our builds: one clear H1 per page, title tags and meta descriptions written per page rather than generated, clean crawlable HTML, sensible URLs, image alt text, fast Core Web Vitals, and structured data describing your business, your address and your services to Google.
It's the groundwork that lets you rank. It isn't a ranking promise — see below.
What it's not
- Not a $99/month template with your logo swapped in
- Not recycled copy with your town's name dropped in
- Not a build-it-and-vanish arrangement
- Not a guarantee of any particular Google position — nobody can sell you that honestly
How a build runs
Two to three weeks, start to live.
-
Week oneStrategy & message
A call about the business: what you do, where you do it, who you want more of, and what you keep having to explain to customers. That conversation becomes the site map and the copy outline.
-
Week twoDesign & build
You see real design with your real words in it — not a demo with somebody else's words in it. We build it responsive and fast from the first pixel rather than bolting mobile on at the end.
-
Week threeReview & launch
You review, we revise, then it goes live with forms tested, analytics ready and a short handoff so you know how to change your own hours. The biggest variable is how fast you send feedback.
A great site nobody finds is a business card.
Your website is what gets you chosen. Your Google profile is what gets you found in the first place. Most contractors need both working together — see how Google Business Profile management works, or compare them side by side on the services and pricing page.
Website questions
The ones we get every time.
Three that are specific to the build. The rest — timelines, cancellation, service area — live on the FAQ page.
Usually, yes — and if your current setup is slow or expensive we'll say so and give you the honest comparison rather than quietly moving you somewhere we prefer. If you don't have a domain yet, we'll help you pick and register one in your own name.
Each additional page is $300, quoted before it's built. Contractors most often add a page per service or per town they work in, because that's how customers search. We'll tell you which extra pages are actually worth it and which ones are just more to maintain.
