Web design for tradies
Websites for tradies that make the phone ring
For electricians, plumbers, builders, roofers and every trade in between. A clear, fast site that tells locals what you do, where you go and how to reach you, live in 72 hours.
Plenty of tradie work starts with a search
Someone’s hot water cylinder dies, or they want a quote for a deck. They search, they find two or three names, and they ring the one that looks most sorted. If your name leads to an old Facebook page or a domain that’s lapsed, that call goes to someone else.
You don’t need a big site. You need one that answers the questions people have before they ring, works on a phone with one bar of signal, and makes calling you the easiest thing on the page.
What a good tradie website needs
Call and quote buttons on every screen
Most people looking for a tradie are on their phone, often mid-problem. A tap-to-call button and a short quote form stay in reach wherever they scroll.
The towns you cover, by name
“Servicing the region” tells nobody anything. Listing the towns and areas you travel to helps locals see you cover them, and helps search engines match you to searches like “electrician Twizel”.
What you do, and what you don’t
Clear service lists save you calls you can’t take. Heat pumps but not solar? Renovations but not new builds? Say so, and the right jobs come through.
Proof you’re the real deal
Your registration or licence details, photos of real jobs, and a link to your Google reviews. In New Zealand, for example, people can check an electrician on the public register, so we make the numbers easy to find.
Fast on rural connections
Small pages, compressed photos, no heavy plugins. Many of the people searching for you are on patchy mobile coverage, so the site loads quickly anywhere.
Your Google Business Profile, tidied
Your Maps listing is often seen before your website. We check your hours, service area, categories and photos match what the site says.

Tarn Electrical
A design study by our team: a made-up business, designed the way we’d design yours. Open it on your phone to see how it feels.
Open the Tarn Electrical designNew Zealand first, Australia and Canada too
We started in New Zealand, where plenty of tradies work in small towns and rural areas. Word of mouth still matters there, but people check you online first. The same approach works for tradies anywhere in Australia, and for trades and contractors in Canada.
Everything happens by email, so you don’t lose a morning on site for a meeting. You see your homepage design first, reply with changes when you get a minute, and approve the words before anything goes live.
In New Zealand? See websites for NZ tradies, with your LBP, EWRB or PGDB registration up front.

Questions we get asked
Anything else? Email us and you’ll hear back within 24 hours.
How much does a tradie website cost?
Our fixed prices start at $1,490 for a one-page site with call, quote and map buttons. Business, at $2,490, suits most tradies: up to 6 pages, copywriting, a quote or enquiry form and local search set-up. The optional care plan is $49/month for hosting, backups and small changes.
I get most of my work from word of mouth. Do I still need a website?
Word of mouth gets your name passed on. What happens next is a search. A clear site confirms you’re real, that you cover their area and that you’re easy to reach, so the referral turns into a call.
I already have a Facebook page. Isn’t that enough?
Facebook is useful for showing recent jobs, but not everyone has an account, it’s hard to scan for services and areas, and you don’t control how it looks. A website is yours, and we can link your Facebook from it.
Will it help me show up on Google Maps?
Maps rankings mostly come from your Google Business Profile, how close you are to the person searching, and your reviews. We tidy your profile and make sure the site and the profile say the same thing. Nobody can honestly promise a Maps position, and we won’t.
Can I update it myself?
Yes, if you’d like to. Or send us an email on the care plan and we’ll change your hours, add a service or post new job photos for you.
