Website design for tradies.
Trade businesses win work through clear service descriptions, fast contact options and authentic evidence of tidy workmanship.
We build websites for plumbers, electricians, builders and landscapers across Australia, designed to turn local visitors into booked jobs.
What a trade website needs
- One-tap phone calls and mobile contact forms
- Explicit service areas and trade credentials
- Clear separation of domestic and commercial work
- Project galleries showing real completed jobs
- Transparent pricing with no hidden tiers
Commercial clarity
Clear information. Fast local enquiries.
When homeowners and site managers look for a trade contractor, they rarely want to read long essays. They have an immediate requirement to solve: an electrical fault, a burst pipe, a home extension or a complete outdoor renovation.
A good trade website answers three questions within seconds: do you service my suburb, do you handle this specific task, and how quickly can I contact you? If those answers are buried behind slow layouts or generic stock photos, visitors leave to call another contractor.
We design trade websites around that buying reality. Phone numbers stay tap-friendly, service areas are stated plainly, and project galleries show actual Australian homes and job sites rather than overseas stock libraries.
Trade essentials
What trade businesses need from a website
A trade website has a distinct commercial job. It is an enquiry engine built for phones, helping property owners make contact with confidence.
Clear service territory
Listing the exact regions, suburbs and council areas you service prevents out-of-area enquiries and helps local clients confirm you operate nearby.
Licensing and credentials
Contractor licence numbers, trade certifications, insurance coverage and safety standards displayed where property owners can see them.
Job galleries and workmanship
Photographs of completed domestic and commercial projects. Genuine photos of tidy switchboards, clean pipework and finished renovations build instant confidence.
Service scope definitions
Clear separation between emergency callouts, scheduled maintenance, installations and major project contracts so clients select the right service path.
Local search foundations
Crawlable page structure, suburb targeting, business schema and meta tags so your trade business is correctly indexed in Australian search results.

Common trade website questions answered
What is the most important feature of a tradie website?
Clear contact options on mobile. Most trade clients search when they have an urgent issue or need a quote quickly. A visible phone button, direct form and explicit suburb coverage are essential.
How much does a tradie website cost with Kavera?
For sole traders and small trade teams, our fixed-format Launch Website is $49/month ($199 setup. Or $599 once-off with first-year hosting included, then $199/year. Domain registration is separate.

Which package suits plumbers and electricians?
Plumbers and electricians usually fit our Launch Website for a straightforward 1 to 5-page site, or our Business Website if they need separate pages for emergency repairs, hot water, switchboards, rewiring and commercial contracts.
Why do builders and landscapers need a Premium CMS website?
Building and landscaping contracts represent significant investments for property owners. Clients evaluate craftsmanship through detailed photography, project views and comprehensive case studies. A Premium CMS site gives builders and landscapers unlimited pages and client-editable galleries to showcase finished projects properly.
Can I update project photos myself after launch?
With our Premium CMS package, yes. You receive a structured content management system where you can upload new project photos, write project descriptions and update your portfolio without needing developer assistance.
Does a trade website guarantee Google rankings?
No website can guarantee search rankings or enquiries. We build clean technical foundations, mobile responsiveness, semantic headings, metadata and schema, but ongoing search visibility depends on market competition, content quality and authority over time.
