Website Design for Builders Who Want Better Jobs, Not More Tyre Kickers
Homeowners planning a new home or an extension look closely at a builder’s website before they pick up the phone. We build websites for builders that show the quality of your work, make you easy to trust and bring in enquiries for the jobs you actually want.

Your Builds Are Better Than Your Website Makes Them Look
Most builders win work through word of mouth. But even a referral looks you up before they call, and if your website looks like an afterthought, they quietly move on to the next builder on their list.
A new home, a second storey or a renovation is one of the biggest purchases most people will ever make. They want to see what you have built, check you are licensed and get a feel for how you work, all before they send an enquiry.
A good builder website does that job for you. It shows your best projects properly, answers the questions people have early, and makes it easy for the right clients to get in touch, so you spend less time quoting jobs that were never going to go ahead.
It is all part of our wider website design service, built around the way people choose a builder.
Websites We Have Built for Builders and Construction Businesses
Every number below is published in full in our case studies.
Matthew had a DIY Wix website for two years and it never brought in a single lead. His new website shows his custom homes, additions and decks properly, and it has brought in 53 enquiries since launch.
After three websites that never produced a lead, Soldani’s new website was built around Alfonso’s own work. It brought in 14 enquiries and more than $100,000 of work in under five months.
We added pages for commercial, government and civil projects and a separate enquiry form for bigger jobs. Website enquiries rose from 59 to 172 in a year.

What Every Builder Website Needs
People take their time choosing a builder, so your website has to answer their questions and earn their trust before they ever speak to you.
Project Galleries That Do Your Work Justice
Large, fast-loading photos of your finished builds, each with the suburb and a short story about the job. This is what people spend the most time looking at, so it gets the most care.
A Page for Every Type of Build
New homes, knock down rebuilds, extensions, second storeys and renovations each get their own page, so people find the work they are planning and Google understands what you build.
Licence, Insurance and Reviews Up Front
Your licence number, memberships and Google reviews are easy to find on every page. In NSW, your licence number has to appear on your website anyway, and it helps people trust you faster.
Enquiry Forms That Sort Serious Projects
A simple form that asks for the type of build, the suburb and a rough budget, so you can see which enquiries are worth a site visit before you spend an afternoon quoting.
A Design That Matches the Standard of Your Work
If you build high-end homes, your website should look like it. We design around your brand and your photos, not a template that every other builder is using.
SEO Built In From Day One
Keyword research, page titles and a page structure planned around the builds and areas you want more of, so your website is ready to be found from launch. Our SEO for builders builds on this if you want to grow further.
Websites for Every Kind of Builder
- Custom and new home builders
- Renovation and extension builders
- Knock down rebuild and duplex builders
- Granny flat and second storey builders
- Commercial and fit-out builders
- Civil, excavation and landscape construction
If you are a specialist trade rather than a builder, such as a roofer, electrician or concreter, our page on websites for tradies explains how we approach the work you do.
A Website Built for a Long Decision
A roofer is often called the same day. A builder can be researched for months before anyone gets in touch, because the job is worth tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars.
That is why a builder website needs more than a phone number and a gallery. It needs to answer the questions people ask early, such as what an extension costs, how long a build takes and how you work, so that when they are ready, you are the builder they already trust.

How Much Does a Builder Website Cost?
Most builder websites are multi-page, because each type of build and each area you work in needs its own page. Our multi-page websites start from $4,500 + GST, and one-page websites start from $1,997 + GST.
Every website is quoted at a fixed price, so you know the full cost before anything starts. You can pay with a 50% deposit and 50% on completion, or spread the cost with a payment plan over 12 or 24 months.
For a builder, one extra job from your website usually covers the cost many times over, which is why a good website is an investment, not just a cost. Our guide to how much a website costs in Australia explains what changes the price.
The People Building Your Website
We are Jordan and Simone, the husband-and-wife team behind JS Website Design. We started the business in Penrith in 2017, and since then we have built more than 100 websites, including websites for builders, landscapers and construction businesses across Western Sydney and the Blue Mountains.
When you work with us, you deal with us directly, from the first call through to launch day. A small, trusted team helps with parts of each build, and we stay closely involved in every project, so you always know who is looking after your website.
What Our Clients Say
Website Design for Builders FAQs
How much does a website for a builder cost?
Most builders need a multi-page website, which starts from $4,500 + GST. One-page websites start from $1,997 + GST. You get a fixed quote before anything starts, and you can pay over 12 or 24 months.
What should a builder's website include?
At a minimum, a page for each type of build you want more of, project galleries with real photos, your licence number and reviews, and a simple enquiry form that works on a phone. Pages for the areas you build in help you get found locally.
Does my licence number need to be on my website?
In NSW, yes. A builder’s name and licence number must appear in all advertising, and that includes your website. It also helps you win work, because many people check a builder’s licence before they get in touch.
I don't have good photos of my work. Can you still help?
Yes. Most builders have more than they think on their phone. We help you choose the best ones, and for key projects it can be worth booking a professional photographer, which we can talk through with you.
Can I add new projects myself?
Yes. Your website is built on WordPress, and we show you how to add a new project and photos before launch. If you would rather we handle it, our care plan covers small updates each month.
Will a new website help me get found on Google?
Every website we build includes keyword research and SEO setup, so it is ready to be found from launch. Brownjohn Constructions now ranks on page one for 53 searches. If you want to grow further, our SEO for builders builds on that foundation.
How long does a builder website take?
It depends mostly on how many pages you need and how quickly photos and feedback come through. We give you a clear timeline before we start and keep you updated along the way.
Do you work with builders outside Penrith?
Yes. We are based in Penrith and build websites for builders across Western Sydney, the Blue Mountains and Australia wide.
