The problem
Your competitor has a website. It's not fancy but it exists. When a homeowner searches "plumber near me" or looks up your name before calling, you need something to show up. Wix takes a weekend. Hiring someone takes $2,000. You keep pushing it off.
Why we built it
We built the website builder for contractors who need a professional online presence without spending a weekend on it. Pick your trade, add your photos, write two sentences — DIRT does the rest. You get a live site optimized for local search in an afternoon.
How it works
- 1
In DIRT (Leads or higher), tap "Website" and start the builder.
- 2
Select your trade, add your service area and contact info, upload a few photos.
- 3
Your site goes live at dirttrades.com/s/your-name — or connect your own domain.
What changes for your business
Before
No website. Competitors show up in Google. You don't.
After
Live contractor site in an afternoon. Shows up in local search. Looks professional.
Common questions
What is the best website builder for contractors?
The one you'll actually finish. Generic builders like Wix require layout decisions and copy from scratch — which is why most contractors never get the site live. DIRT's builder is trade-specific: pick your trade, add your city and photos, write two sentences about your work, and your site is live. Takes an afternoon, not a weekend.
How do I build a contractor website without any design skills?
In DIRT (Leads or higher), tap "Website" and start the builder. Select your trade, add your service city and contact info, upload a few photos. DIRT handles layout, mobile optimization, and local SEO structure automatically.
How long does it take to build a contractor website?
About 30 minutes for the initial build. Longer if you're gathering photos and writing a bio — but the structure goes live in under an hour. You can always add to it later.
What should a contractor website include?
Your trade and location so Google knows what you do and where, contact info and a lead form, photos of real work, and a short description of what you do. DIRT's template includes all of it — you fill in the specifics.
How much does a contractor website cost?
DIRT's website builder is included with the Leads plan. Hiring a web designer runs $1,500–$5,000 upfront plus maintenance. A Wix or Squarespace site is $17–$45/month at mid-2026 pricing, and still requires your time to build.
Will my DIRT contractor site show up on Google?
Your site is built with local SEO structure from day one — trade, city, and service area baked into the page title and metadata. DIRT submits your sitemap automatically. Indexing typically takes 2–4 weeks after the site publishes.
Can I connect my own domain name?
Yes. Your site goes live at dirttrades.com/s/your-name by default. Connect your own domain in settings — DIRT walks you through the two DNS records you need to add at your registrar.
What plan do I need to use the website builder?
The website builder is part of Leads and higher. The free Solo tier gives you the full core app — invoicing, job costing, profit tracking. Upgrade when you're ready to add marketing.
