Websites for tradies in Newcastle, built while you're on the tools
You can only be on one job at a time. A good website is in every customer's hand, showing off your work and your licence, with your number one tap away. That's what we build for tradies across Newcastle.

By John Byrne, Founder.A tradie website that works from your customer's phone
Most of your work comes from happy customers passing your number on. The website is the one job that never makes it onto the schedule.
Fair enough. You're flat out all day and quoting at night. A busy owner shouldn't be building a website on top of all that. That's our job.
Google looks at the phone version of your site when it decides where you rank. Your customers size you up on the same screen. So that's where we start: we build for the phone in your customer's hand.
Web design for tradies: what goes into the build
Everything a customer needs to ring you. All of it right where they'd look.
Your job photos
Your own work, front and centre. Those before-and-after shots deserve better than your camera roll.
A contact form for after hours
Not everyone rings, especially at 9pm on the couch. A short form takes their name, number and the job, so it's waiting for you when you're ready.
Fast on a phone
Nobody waits for a slow site, least of all on one bar of reception. We keep the pages light and the photos small, so your site doesn't leave them waiting.
Your licence number, shown properly
NSW Fair Trading says the rules on trade advertising cover online ads too, and for specialist work like electrical, plumbing and air conditioning they apply at any job value. So we put your name and licence number where customers can see them. They can check it online with Service NSW by number, name, ABN or location.
Mobile-friendly websites
One layout that reshapes itself for any screen. Web designers call it responsive design. Your customers just call it working.
Your reviews, where they count
The word of mouth you've already earned, put to work. Your best Google reviews sit right where customers decide whether to ring.
The areas you actually work
Your areas, spelled out. Locals can see you cover them, and people three hours away can see you don't.
Your Google profile, set up alongside
We usually set up your Google profile and Google Maps alongside the site, so your details match.
A logo, if you need one
If you haven't got one yet, we do logo design too, so the site and the signage look like one business.
If you already have a website, see website redesign.If it's only the writing you need, that's website copywriting.
We also do web design in Newcastle for practices and other local businesses.

The build, step by step
- Your trade. What you do, where you work, and the jobs you want more of.
- Words. We turn that into pages a stranger can read in a minute. Website copywriting shows how.
- Design. Your colours, your photos, your logo, all laid out for a phone first.
- Build. The design becomes a working website.
- Launch. Your site goes live and starts working 24/7.
- Your Google profile. Usually set up alongside the site, so customers see the same details in both places.
Once you're live, website maintenance keeps the site hosted, updated and checked. If you want help showing up on Google, the next step is our monthly plan for getting found on Google. Running ads? They need pages of their own, and Google Ads management looks after those.
The trades we build for
We like building for people who work with their hands: solar installers, air con techs, pest controllers, sparkies, plumbers and painters.
Some are owner-operators, flat out on the tools. Others run bigger crews, where the boss spends the day quoting and chasing. Either way, nobody's got time to build a website.
A painting business we built for, in their words:
"He took the time to understand our business, our services, and the areas we service across the Central Coast, Newcastle and Lake Macquarie, ensuring the website was tailored to our target market."
Paying it off with a payment plan
You don't have to find the whole amount up front.
Pay it off monthly over 6 or 12 months.
You see the price in writing before anything starts.
Build it and leave it, or keep us on?
One-off job
We build your website and that's the job done. Host it anywhere you like.

Tradie website questions from the ute
How long does it take to build a website?
Most websites go live in 1 to 2 months, depending on size. More pages mean more to write and check.
Can't I just build my own website?
You can. The template is the easy bit. The hard bit is the writing: what to say about each job so the right customer rings you and the wrong one doesn't. That's the part we take off your hands.
Who actually builds my website?
Our own development team builds every site, and we brief and check every page.
Why does one website cost more than another?
It depends on the size of the job. More pages mean more writing and more building, and extras like a logo add to it.
