Web design for local service businesses

Websites for local service & home-service businesses

For landscaping, cleaning, trades and home services — a site that turns word-of-mouth into search traffic and enquiries. Fixed price, live in weeks.

Updated August 2026 · By Shaheer Malik, senior designer & developer

The problem I solve

  • A business running entirely on word-of-mouth with no way to be found
  • No site at all, or one built years ago on a builder nobody can edit
  • Enquiries lost because there is nowhere obvious to make contact

Quick answer

A local service business website costs around $700 for a landing page or $1,500 for a full site, and its job is to catch the people who heard your name and went looking, plus those searching for the service in your area. Photos of real jobs outperform stock imagery in this category.

How I approach it

Most local service businesses grow on referrals and hit a ceiling: the work is good, but nobody new can find it. A website does not replace word-of-mouth — it catches the people who heard your name and went looking, and the people searching for the service in your area.

So the structure is simple and specific: what you do, where you do it, what the work looks like, and how to get a quote. Photos of actual jobs beat stock images every time in this category, and if you do not have them yet, the site is built so they drop in later without a redesign.

It is built in Framer so you can update it yourself — change a price, add a photo, update your service area — without needing a developer for a ten-minute edit. That matters more here than in almost any other category.
