Web design for trades
Web design for trades — electricians, plumbers, builders & more
Pettifer Works builds web design for trades — electricians, plumbers, builders, and installers — from £250 with click-to-call, service pages, and local SEO. Based in Colchester, Essex.
Trades customers search on their phone, often in a hurry. Your site needs to load fast, show what you do clearly, display your area, and make calling or requesting a quote effortless. We build trade websites that win local enquiries — not brochureware that hides your number.

Who is this for?
Built for tradespeople and trade businesses who rely on local search and phone enquiries.

The problem
If customers cannot call you in two taps, you lose the job
Trade sites often bury phone numbers, load slowly on 4G, or fail to mention areas covered — so Google sends the click to a competitor.
- Your number is hard to find on mobile
- No clear list of services or areas covered
- Site looks outdated compared to larger competitors
- You rely on Checkatrade but want your own leads
- Photos of recent work are missing or low quality
