We build fast, professional websites for builders that rank on Google, showcase your best work, and turn visitors into project enquiries. You focus on the builds — we'll handle the website.
If any of these sound like your situation, you're leaving money on the table every single day.
When someone searches "builder near me" or "local builders [town]" in your area, your competitors show up and you don't. Without proper local SEO, you're invisible to the homeowners who need you most.
Over 60% of your potential homeowners are searching on their phone. If your site is broken on mobile, they'll go to the next result — and that project is gone.
Your site gets traffic but you're not getting enquiries. There's no clear call-to-action, no easy way to request a quote, and no reason for someone to choose you over the competition.
You're busy running your building business. You don't have time to learn WordPress, mess with a website builder, or chase a freelancer who ghosted you. You just need it done properly.
Every feature is tailored to how building businesses win homeowners online.
Optimised for searches like "builder near me", "local builders [town]", and "house extension builder". We build your site to rank where your homeowners are searching.
A stunning visual gallery showcasing your best builds — extensions, renovations, new builds. Before-and-after photos that sell your craftsmanship before you even quote.
Dedicated pages for every town and area you cover — "Builder in Birmingham", "Extensions in Bristol". Each one is a new opportunity to rank on Google for local searches.
97+ Google PageSpeed score and sub-1.5-second load times. A fast site ranks higher, converts better, and doesn't lose impatient visitors to a loading spinner.
Federation of Master Builders badge, insurance certificates, project gallery, and customer testimonials. Everything that makes a homeowner feel confident choosing you over the competition.

Everything you need to know before getting started.
Our builder websites start from £800 for a professional single-page site, £1,500 for a multi-page site with project galleries, service area pages, and £2,500+ for a fully bespoke build with custom functionality and CRM integrations. All plans include a £40/month care plan covering hosting, security, backups, and ongoing support.
Most builder websites are designed, built, and live within 14 days of design approval. The design phase typically takes 3–5 days, and development takes another 7–10 days.
Every Velo builder website is built with on-page SEO as standard. For Professional and Premium plans, we also create dedicated location and service pages targeting local searches and integrate with Google Business Profile.
We handle as much as possible. If you have photos of your completed projects, your team on site, or your vehicles, that's ideal. If not, we can source professional imagery. We can write the copy for you based on a short conversation about your business.
No problem. We build your new site independently and only switch it over once you're completely happy. Your existing site stays live until the new one is ready.
Yes. Once the project is paid in full, you own the website design and all custom content. If you ever decide to leave the care plan, we'll help you migrate your site to your own hosting.
Homeowners planning extensions, renovations, or new builds are researching online before they invite anyone to quote. If your building business doesn't have a professional website showcasing your work, you're losing projects to competitors who do.
A professional builder website does more than just exist on the internet. It acts as a 24/7 salesperson for your building business, building trust with potential homeowners before they ever invite you to quote.
A great builder website needs to do three things: rank in local search results, build immediate trust through FMB membership, project galleries, and real testimonials, and make it effortless for homeowners to request a quote.
When someone searches for "builder near me" or "local builders in [town]", Google decides which websites to show based on page speed, mobile responsiveness, relevant content, and Google Business Profile integration. Every Velo builder website is built with these ranking factors in mind from the ground up.
homeowners need to trust you. Your website needs to communicate professionalism within seconds — FMB or trade body badges, project photos, and customer reviews, real photos, and clear descriptions of what you offer.
The single most important function of your builder website is converting visitors into enquiries. Every page should have a clear call to action, a simple way to get in touch, and a visible phone number with click-to-call functionality. A homeowner looking for a building project shouldn't have to work to find how to reach you — it should be immediately obvious, especially on mobile where over 60% of searches happen.
We've seen hundreds of builder websites, and the same problems appear again and again. Understanding these mistakes is the first step to making sure your website doesn't fall into the same traps.
At Velo, we build builder websites that work. Every design decision is focused on generating more enquiries for your building business. We understand your industry and we know that a fast, locally optimised website is the most cost-effective marketing investment a builder can make.
