Websites for contractors
Contractor website design for general contractors
A remodel or an addition is the biggest check most homeowners ever write to a contractor. Before they call, they read your site closely: what you build, how a project runs from plans to the final walk-through, and whether you’re licensed for it.
A sample we built: Kettlewood Builders
Sample · fictional business
The Kettlewood sample sits on a blueprint-style grid, shows its license and B classification in a strip just below the opening section, and walks through how projects usually run, from plans and permits to the final walk-through. Kettlewood Builders is a fictional business in the made-up town of Wrenford, with a (555) phone number and an .example address. We built it to show our work. It isn’t a customer.
What a contractor’s website needs
Your license class and number
General building contractors in California hold a B license, and the Contractors State License Board tells licensed contractors to include their number in all advertising, websites included. Homeowners about to sign a large contract look it up.
Project types, one by one
Additions, kitchens, bathrooms, accessory dwelling units, structural repairs: each is its own search and its own kind of customer. Give each one a clear description of what it involves.
How a project runs
Owners worry about the unknowns: permits, schedules, who’s on site and when. A plain walk-through of how your projects go, first visit to final walk-through, answers those before the first meeting.
Photos of finished work
Nothing sells a remodel like the last one. A preview uses stock-style images made with AI; once you keep the site, send photos of your projects and we build a gallery from them.
Where you build
Your service area, stated plainly, so homeowners outside it don’t spend a call finding out.
Reviews, in full
Your Google reviews show live on the site, exactly as written, the way homeowners read them before hiring for a big job.
The license rule is from the Contractors State License Board: industry bulletin 20-21.
From your license record to a finished site
Your record with the Contractors State License Board gives us your license number and classification, and your website tells us what you build. We write every page from those, and the work the site offers stays within the classifications you hold.
Every page carries your license number. The site never calls you bonded or insured: California doesn’t allow contractors to advertise a bond, and we leave insurance out as well.
If you keep it, you confirm the details that matter before launch. From then on, ask for changes by text, email or the owner portal: a new project photo, a new kind of work, different hours.

Questions contractors ask
- Can we show projects we built for past clients?
- Yes, with your photos, once you keep the site. A preview never uses your images, so it starts with stock-style pictures and yours replace them.
- We already have a site with a portfolio. What happens to it?
- Nothing, unless you keep ours. If you do, it can go live on your current domain, and the domain stays yours either way.
- Is there a setup fee for a bigger site?
- No. Neither plan has a setup fee, and the price is the same $99 or $150 a month whatever your trade.
