Website for electricians, plumbers and builders: what should it include?
What a website for an electrician, plumber, builder or other contractor should include, with a real example: the Switch Electrical website we built.
What should an electrician’s, plumber’s or builder’s website include?
It should make it easy to call, show the services you offer and the areas you cover, and give customers a short way to ask for a quote, on phones as well as computers. When we built the Switch Electrical website, that meant a page for each main service, an areas-covered page, an articles section and an enquiry form.
The essentials
Most customers looking for an electrician, plumber or builder want the same answers quickly.
- A phone number they can tap, always within reach.
- The services you offer, each with its own page.
- The towns and areas you cover, named in plain words.
- A short enquiry form for a quote.
- Pages that load quickly and read clearly on a phone.
A real example: Switch Electrical
Switch Electrical & Mechanical Services is an electrical contractor working across Gateshead and Newcastle. The website we built has service pages for house rewires, landlord EICRs, and solar, battery and EV charging, an areas-covered page, an articles section and an enquiry form.
Business tools if you want them
Our CRM and business tools are optional extras. If you later want enquiries, quotes and jobs in one place, we can connect them to your website then.
