Websites for general contractors

Nobody hires a contractor casually. By the time someone lands on your site they have heard a horror story, from a neighbor or a relative or the internet, about a job that ran double and finished late. They are not browsing. They are looking for reasons to trust you, and reasons not to.

This website has a different job

They are looking for reasons to trust you. And reasons not to.

That makes a contractor website a different object from a shop's. It is not there to be pretty. It is there to answer the questions someone is too polite to ask on the phone: have you done work like mine, are you licensed and insured, do you finish, and what does it actually cost.

The other half of its job runs the opposite direction. A good contractor site turns away as many people as it attracts, by being blunt about the work you take on, the sizes you handle, and how far you travel. Fewer estimates, better ones.

What I build into it

  • Project pages that survive a skeptic

    Real jobs, real photos, the neighborhood named where you can. A homeowner wants to see work like theirs, not a stock kitchen.

  • The questions, answered up front

    Licensing, insurance, how you price, how long a job takes, what you do not do. Every one you answer on the page is one you do not lose a lead over.

  • A service area that says where you work

    Plainly, by town. It is the strongest local search signal you have, and it stops the calls from three counties away.

  • A quote path built for a phone

    A short form and a tap-to-call number, reachable without scrolling. Most of this traffic arrives on a phone between jobs.

Who you're hiring

Built by someone who knows the trade

I spent about a decade in custom home building, real estate, and land development before Melsmark, selling to the same homeowners and property managers your site has to convince. So the conversation about your website starts from how your work actually gets sold, not from a template. You will not be explaining your own business to your web designer.

Most contractors land in the Momentum range, because a project gallery and a page per service are worth the extra pages.

Questions from general contractors

How much does a contractor website cost?
Websites run $1,200 to $3,200 depending on pages, and most contractors land around $2,200 because a gallery and a page per service earn their keep. Hosting and updates are $75 a month after launch.
Can the site filter out the tire kickers?
That is half its job. Being plain about the work you take, the sizes you handle, and where you travel means fewer estimates and better ones. A quote form that asks the right three questions does the rest.
Do you understand how construction actually gets sold?
Yes. I spent about a decade in home building, real estate, and land development before this. You will not be explaining your own business to your web designer.
How long does it take?
Usually one to four weeks from kickoff to live. What slows it down is waiting on photos and content, so I tell you up front exactly what I need.
