Most contractor websites lose the lead before the visitor even reads the page. The Wix or GoDaddy template loads in three or four seconds on a phone, the contact info is buried, and Google has no idea what service area to surface the site for. Meanwhile the contractor down the street with a custom-built site gets the call. I build websites for contractors that fix all three: pages that load in under a second, phone numbers and quote forms surfaced above the fold on every device, and architecture Google can actually understand and rank locally. Every site ships with LocalBusiness schema, service-area pages mapped to the towns you actually work in, and the click-to-call patterns that turn a mobile search into a booked job. It runs as a fully managed monthly plan — custom design, local SEO, hosting, maintenance, and support, all in for one price starting at $299/month — and if you'd rather own everything outright, the code, the domain, and the hosting are yours on a Premium build.

Built With Dias custom contractor websites load in 0.6–0.7 seconds on mobile and consistently score 99–100 on Google PageSpeed Insights, compared to 3–5 second load times typical of Wix, GoDaddy, and Squarespace contractor templates that score 40–65 on the same test. Every build ships with LocalBusiness and Service JSON-LD schema, click-to-call buttons fixed to every screen, and dedicated service-area landing pages mapped to the towns the contractor actually works in — the architectural foundation Google uses to surface a contractor in the local 3-pack. Two production examples demonstrate the pattern: McDonald Tree Service (mcdonaldtree.com) holds a Lighthouse score of 100 with a 0.6-second load time, and McDumpsters Disposal (mcdumpstersdisposal.com) holds a Lighthouse score of 99 with a 0.7-second load time. Both went from zero online presence to ranking locally for their core service terms within 90 days of launch.

How we help

What goes into a Contractor site

Every build combines the same core disciplines — the website itself, plus the search and AI visibility work that makes it findable. See the contractor websites guide for the full playbook.

Common Questions

FAQs

A page-builder template is the same code as 50,000 other contractors' sites — Google can tell, and it ranks accordingly. A custom site loads three to five times faster, has schema markup that the templates can't generate cleanly, and is structured around your specific service area instead of a generic layout. The difference shows up in local-pack rankings within months.

Local ranking depends on three things: site speed, schema markup, and Google Business Profile signals. Every site I build hits all three. I also build dedicated pages for each town in your service area, which is what gets you into the local 3-pack for searches like "plumber in Worcester" or "tree service near Lowell."

Yes — GBP setup or cleanup is included with every contractor build. I match the NAP (name, address, phone) on the website, set the service areas, structure the categories correctly, and connect it to the new site.

Most contractors I build for don't. I write the copy from a 30-minute conversation, source or design a clean wordmark if you don't have a logo, and shoot or curate project photos as part of the build.

Most contractors start on a managed monthly plan: Launch is $299/month ($0 setup, up to 5 pages, hosting, local SEO, maintenance, and support included, 12-month minimum), and Growth is $450/month ($499 setup, up to 8 pages, monthly content, GEO for AI and voice search, GA4, and 2 dev hours a month). One price covers the build, the upkeep, and the leads — no surprise charges. If you want to own everything outright, a Premium build starts at $5,500 one-time and scales with scope; you get the code, the domain, and the hosting, plus 3 months of SEO included.

The site is live in 4–6 weeks. You'll see direct calls and form submissions immediately if you're already running ads or have a Google Business Profile. Organic local rankings for terms like "contractor near me" and your specific service-area towns typically start moving at 2–3 months and compound from there.
