Who is this for?

You are good at the job. Your customers say so. The problem is the website, or the lack of one.

You might recognise some of this:

  • "My site was built by my nephew in 2014 and it does not even work on a phone."
  • "I am paying Checkatrade every month and still fighting six other firms for the same job."
  • "Summer comes and the phone just stops."
  • "Customers ask for my Gas Safe number on the doorstep because there is nowhere online to check it."
  • "I keep losing boiler installs to a firm with worse reviews but a better site."

If any of that sounds familiar, a proper website is the fix. Not a pretty brochure. A site that gets the phone ringing.

What do you get?

Every build includes the same core kit, sized to your business.

Mobile-first design:

most of your customers find you on a phone with water on the floor, so every page is designed for a small screen first and a desktop second.

Click-to-call and a short quote form:

one tap rings your mobile, and the form asks only what you need to price the job, such as postcode, job type and a photo.

Service and area pages:

separate pages for boiler repairs, bathrooms, leaks, power flushes or whatever you want more of, plus pages for the towns you cover, each written to match how people actually search.

Gas Safe number placement:

if you do gas work, your registration number sits where customers look for it, and we know the Gas Safe Register rules on using its logo and build with them in mind.

Genuine Google reviews on the site:

a widget pulls your real reviews straight from Google, so they update on their own and nothing is invented.

Schema, speed and hosting:

structured data tells Google your trade, area and opening hours, pages load fast on 4G, and we set up hosting, SSL and backups for you.

You own the domain and the website. Always.

Do I need a website if I am already on Checkatrade?

Short answer: a directory profile and a website do different jobs. Checkatrade, MyBuilder and Rated People put you in a list next to competitors, and the platform owns the customer relationship. Your website puts you on your own page with nobody else on it.

Most of the plumbers we speak to keep one directory listing for the reviews and the badge, then use their own site to win work without paying per lead. If you are weighing it up, read our guide: is Checkatrade worth it?

Around 480 people a month in the UK search "plumber website design", according to DataforSEO data from October 2026. Plenty of your rivals are thinking about this too.

What does a plumbing website look like when it is done well?

It answers three questions in the first screen: what you do, where you do it, and how to get hold of you. Then it proves you are safe to let into the house.

Here are a few sample layouts we have designed for the trade.

What could your website look like?

These are example designs only. Each one is an illustrative homepage for a made-up plumbing or heating business. Your website is designed from scratch around your own business, brand and van livery.

All business names, web addresses and phone numbers in these examples are made up (phone numbers are from Ofcom's ranges reserved for fiction). Photos are free stock images from Pexels, used for illustration.

Each design keeps the phone button in view as the visitor scrolls. Trust signals, such as your Gas Safe number, insurance and any WaterSafe or APHC membership you actually hold, sit near the top. We only show logos you are entitled to use, because Trading Standards rules say so, and you remain responsible for what your website says.

What about the trades you do not want more of?

A good website is as much about filtering as attracting. If you are tired of dripping-tap jobs across the river, we keep those low on the site and lead with boiler swaps, bathrooms or whatever pays you best. The pages you build are the work you get.

How does it work?

  1. Quick call: a short chat at a time that suits you between jobs, so we understand your services, areas and the work you want more of.
  2. Fixed quote: you get a fixed price in writing within one working day, held for seven days.
  3. Build and write: we write every page in plain trade language, design the site and send you a private preview link to check on your phone.
  4. Launch: once you approve, we connect your domain, submit the site to Google and set up your Google Business Profile link.

How much does a plumbing website cost?

It depends on how many services, areas and engineers you have. A one-van plumber needs fewer pages than a firm with eight engineers covering three counties. Every quote is fixed, so there are no surprises halfway through.

Frequently asked questions

What does a plumbing website include?

Everything a customer needs to trust you and get in touch. That means service pages, area pages, click-to-call, a quote form, your Gas Safe details where relevant, genuine Google reviews, schema and hosting set up for speed.

Should I get a website or just stay on Checkatrade?

Many plumbers do both. A directory profile rents you a spot among rivals, while your own site is an asset you keep, and our guide on whether Checkatrade is worth it sets out the trade-off.

Can you use photos from my phone?

Yes, and we prefer them. Real photos of your van, your team and your finished jobs beat stock images every time, so we crop and compress what you already have.

Do I need a separate page for every service?

For the jobs you want more of, yes. A dedicated page for boiler installs or leak detection gives Google a clear answer to match against that search, which a single long services page cannot do.

What if I already have a logo?

We build around it. If you do not have one, we can tidy up your van livery into a simple web version so the site and the van look like the same business.

Will my website show my Google reviews?

Yes. We add a widget that pulls your real Google reviews onto the site, so nothing is copied, edited or made up.

How do I get changes made after launch?

On our £50 a month care plan, small edits are included, so you email us the change and we make it. Without the plan, we quote for changes as and when you need them.
