Website Design for Builders

Websites for residential builders and renovation companies that walk a homeowner through your finished projects, show your licence where they'll check it, and let them send plans with their quote request.

What a builder's website needs to show

Most people take their time choosing a builder. They often read your site with a partner, come back to it after the first meeting and compare it with other builders before signing anything. What they're looking for is evidence: finished jobs, a current licence and a clear idea of how you run a build.

  • Projects written up one at a time

    Each build gets its own entry: the suburb, the brief (a rear extension, a second storey, a knock-down rebuild) and photos from slab and frame through to handover. Three properly captioned projects tell a client far more than forty loose photos in a grid.

  • Your licence or registration number on every page

    Builders in NSW, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia must show a licence or registration number in their advertising, and Queensland's QBCC names websites specifically. We put the number and the name it's held under in the footer of every page, with a link to your state's public register so a client can check it themselves.

  • HIA or Master Builders membership, shown properly

    If you belong to the Housing Industry Association or your state's Master Builders association, we add the member logo from the artwork the association gives you and follow its usage rules. Master Builders Queensland, for example, offers members a "Proud Member" logo for their website, and Master Builders WA publishes usage guidelines for its member logo.

  • A quote form that accepts plans

    Clients who've already been to an architect or draftsperson want to send the drawings. Your form can take PDF plans and photos, along with the suburb, a rough budget, preferred start date and whether council approval is in place, so you know what you're pricing before you book a site visit.

  • How a build runs with you

    A short section on your process: first meeting, site visit, quote, contract, approvals, the main construction stages and handover. People comparing builders want to know who their contact will be, how variations are priced and how often they'll get an update.

  • Build types named the way clients search

    Many homeowners search for the job itself, such as "knock down rebuild" or "second storey extension", rather than just "builder". On the 8-page site, each build type you want more of gets its own page with matching projects and the areas you build in; on smaller sites, they become headings on the home page.

Builder websites we've built

Our closest match is Bright Building & Renovations, a licensed Adelaide renovation builder. Simple Engineers isn't a builder, but its quote form takes file uploads, the same set-up a builder needs for plans.

Home page of the Bright Building & Renovations website

Bright Building & Renovations

Trades & construction · Adelaide, Adelaide Hills & Fleurieu

An Adelaide renovation builder holding a South Australian building licence. Of the 30 pages we built, seven cover services and seven cover the areas they build in, with planning guides alongside. Their licence number sits in the footer beside a link to the CBS licence register, and the seven-step quote form asks about budget, start date and whether the client already has plans or drawings.

  • Payment. No deposit. We build your draft first, you ask for as many changes as you like, and you pay once you approve it. If you don't go ahead, you owe nothing.
  • GST. WebCraft Studio isn't registered for GST, so no GST is added.
  • Timing. Most sites are live within 5–10 days of us getting your words and photos; bigger sites (up to 8 pages) take 2–3 weeks.
  • Hosting. After launch, hosting is $30 a month: hosting, security monitoring, backups, email support and unlimited text and image changes on your existing pages. New pages or features are quoted first. No contract, cancel anytime.
  • Domain and email. We register your domain in your name (about $20 a year), connect it to your site and set up your business email.

Questions builders ask us

Which licence details should go on a builder's website?

The licence or registration you build under, and the name it's held in. In NSW that's your contractor licence from Building Commission NSW; in Victoria, your registration with the Building and Plumbing Commission (which replaced the VBA in July 2025); in Queensland, your QBCC licence; in South Australia, your building work contractor's licence from Consumer and Business Services; and in Western Australia, your building contractor registration with the Building Services Board. If you trade under a different name, show both.

Can clients upload plans with their quote request?

Yes. Your quote form can accept PDFs and photos, so a client can attach an architect's drawings, a draftsperson's plans or photos of the existing house. The files arrive with the enquiry, and you decide which questions the form asks.

We've done plenty of builds but have few good photos. Is that a problem?

Start with your best three to six jobs. Phone photos taken in daylight after the site is cleaned up work well, and we crop and size them so they load quickly. Keep progress shots too: clients like seeing the slab, frame and lock-up stages. Adding photos to an existing projects page later is covered by the $30 monthly hosting; a new page is quoted first.

Which package suits a building company?

A builder who mostly works from referrals can do well with the one-page site at $399. Most building companies are better served by the 3-page site at $899 because it gives projects their own page. If you offer several build types and want a page for each, plus your process and an about page, the 8-page site at $1,499 fits.

Do you work with builders outside South Australia?

Yes. We're a web design team based on Hutt St in Adelaide, South Australia, and we work with businesses Australia-wide by phone and email. Our clients so far are in SA, NSW, VIC and QLD; Bright Building & Renovations, our builder client, is in Adelaide.
