What is the best cheap website option for a UK tradesperson (plumber, electrician, builder)?
For UK tradespeople who want to be found without doing the work themselves, a fixed-price done-for-you service is usually the best value: you send photos of past jobs and your contact details, and the site is built for you. SiteExperts builds trade websites for a one-off £99.99, typically live within a few working days, versus £2,000+ at a traditional agency.
Tradespeople get most of their work from local searches and word of mouth, so the website has one job: convince someone who already found you that you are legitimate, and make it effortless to call. The three things that matter for a trade site are a clear list of services and areas covered, real photos of finished work, and a phone number visible on every screen. Fancy design comes a distant fourth. DIY builders technically cost less per month, but most tradespeople never finish the site because the work happens in the evening after a full day on the tools. A done-for-you service removes that problem: you send the photos, someone else assembles the site. We publish our own completion data: 82% of trade clients who start a DIY builder never publish, while done-for-you sites launch in an average of four working days.
