Contractors & home services

Contractor websites that book jobs.

A contractor website has one job: get a homeowner to call or request a quote before they call someone else. Elevate & Code builds websites for handymen, roofers, countertop and shower installers, cleaners and other home service businesses across the Bay Area and Sacramento, built to show the quality customers can't see until the job is done.

What makes a good contractor website?

It shows who will show up, what they fix, where they work and how to reach them, then proves it with real work and reviews.

  • Phone number on every screen

    One tap to call, especially on a phone.

  • Services in plain words

    The jobs customers search for, listed the way they'd say them.

  • Service area

    The towns you cover, so Google and customers know you're local.

  • Proof

    Your license, reviews, real job photos and before-and-afters.

  • Quote form that asks the right questions

    Project type and details up front, so you can price it faster.

How do contractors stand out when every site looks the same?

By showing the part of the job customers can't see: the prep, the care, the person who shows up. That's what justifies a higher price.

The Handy Butler site leans on Jacob's own butler logo and walks through a house in a scroll-driven video, stopping at the everyday fixes he handles. Jacob got his first customer from the website, and a Yelp rep called it the coolest site he'd seen.

Do contractors need SEO?

Yes. Most homeowners search "[service] near me" or "[service] in [town]". A site with a page per service, your service area and local schema, plus a Google Business Profile, is how you appear there.

“Got my first customer off the website. They used chat to find a handyman in the area. Yelp reached out not even 9 hours after I added my business, and the guy said the website was the coolest he's seen, with the video going through the house.” Jacob Fewx

Frequently asked questions

Can you show my contractor license on the site?

Yes, and we add it to your schema markup so Google can connect your business to the state license record.

I don't have good photos. Can I still get a site?

Yes. We can launch with your logo, story and process, label any example images clearly as illustrations, and swap in real job photos as they come. Real before-and-after photos are what convince customers most.

Can customers request quotes online?

Yes. The form asks for project type and details, sends you an alert, and confirms with the customer automatically.

Do you build for my trade?

We've built for handymen, countertop and shower installers, roofers and cleaning companies, and the approach works for any trade.
