Scale Start: £45/mo · Scale Up: £79/mo · No VAT, £0 upfront
Why builders need a website
Building projects are big, considered decisions. Before anyone trusts you with a renovation or a new build, they research you thoroughly, and that starts with your website.
Big jobs need big trust
A homeowner spending six figures won't call a builder who looks unprofessional online. Your website is where that confidence is won or lost.
Clients research for weeks
Unlike a quick trade call-out, building clients compare carefully. A strong website keeps you on the shortlist the whole way through.
Show the quality of your builds
Completed homes, extensions and loft conversions, photographed well, do the convincing for you.
Credentials matter
Your insurances, FMB or trade body memberships and certifications, displayed up front, separate you from the cowboys.
What we build for builders
Every Scalesites build is shaped around how building clients choose who to trust, set up to showcase your work and your credentials.

Builder website FAQs
How much does a builder website cost?
With Scalesites it's £45 a month for Scale Start or £79 a month for Scale Up, with nothing to pay upfront and no VAT to add. Both run on a 12-month minimum term, so a first year on Scale Start costs £540. Our tradesman website cost guide compares that with DIY builders, freelancers and lead platforms like Checkatrade.
How quickly can my website go live?
Within 2 weeks, and most go live in 5–7 working days. You approve a free preview before you pay anything, then we connect your domain, SSL and Google Business Profile.
Will a website help me get found and win larger jobs?
Yes. Every build includes local SEO and Google Business Profile setup, displays your credentials and showcases your best work: exactly what bigger jobs are decided on.
Do I need to provide all the content and photos?
Whatever you've got helps, but it doesn't need to be polished. Send us your services, credentials and project photos, and we'll write the copy and lay it out for you.
Do I own the website?
Completely. The domain, the site and the content are yours, with no hostage situations. There's a 12-month minimum term that lets us launch with £0 upfront, then it's month-to-month.
