For construction and trade contractors in Reading, the website is not a brochure. It is the front door, the price list and the receptionist. We build it that way: bookable, honest about prices, and quick enough to survive a phone on a bad signal.
Reading is a high-income commuter town where appointments are booked in the evening for the same week. Real-time availability matters more than anything else.
Your customers do not search for Reading as a whole. They search for their bit of it. We build around the areas that matter to you and leave out the ones that do not.
The same three things cost construction and trade contractors money almost everywhere, and all three are fixable on a website.
A single 'Services' list ranks for nothing. The facilities manager is searching for one specific job, not for a contractor in general.
A footer listing forty towns convinces nobody and ranks for none of them. An actual page per area does both.
Accreditations, insurance, certifications and years trading are the whole decision for commercial work, and they are usually three clicks down.
Everything below is something we have already shipped for a business like yours.
Site address, job type, access, scale, photographs and urgency captured in one pass, so your first reply is a price rather than a question.
What the job involves, what governs it, what it costs and what happens next. Ren-Lock has seventeen of them, from fire door installation to emergency lock extraction.
Twenty-eight for Ren-Lock. London boroughs plus Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Bristol, Nottingham and the Home Counties. Real coverage, written up, not a list.
Landlords, managing agents, commercial premises and homeowners want different things. Each gets its own page and its own language.
HMO duties, fire door regulations, servicing intervals, certificate renewals. The content a responsible person searches for is the content that wins the contract.
Accreditations, insurance, years trading and the fact that a person answers the phone, on the page, not in a PDF.
Webukit is our own platform: the control room behind every site we build. Most agencies hand you a brochure and leave. We hand you a website that takes bookings, takes money, remembers your customers and keeps them coming back, and we do not charge you a monthly platform fee for it.
Survey, service and installation slots with travel time and realistic job durations.
Scoping forms with photo uploads, site details and access arrangements.
Site records with certificate and servicing dates against each address.
Automatic reminders when a service, certificate or inspection falls due: the most reliable repeat work in the trade.
Not mock-ups and not a stock-photo portfolio. These are working businesses you can visit right now, taking real bookings and real payments through the platform we build on.
That is the real number for a contracting business website in Reading. Bigger sites: a 400-product shop, a 40-page SEO estate, a bespoke booking flow: cost more, and we tell you what before we start. There is never a monthly platform fee for Webukit while we look after your site.
Most agencies hand you a login and disappear. We load your services, connect your payments and stay on the other end of a message.
One form, ten minutes. Your services, your prices, your area and what you want the site to do.
A real designer builds your layout, your palette and your copy from your services, your room and your customers, not from a stock template.
Services, prices, staff, menus, products, Stripe, Google Business Profile. You do not have to type any of it in.
We publish it, submit it to Google, and keep it running. Changes are a message, not an invoice.
Yes, and for a servicing trade it is the single highest-return thing on the site. Extinguisher services, certificate expiries and inspection intervals are known dates: a reminder converts most of them without anybody chasing.
They go where a commercial buyer can see them, on the pages where they matter. For regulated work it is usually the deciding factor, and burying it costs you contracts.
From £150 for the core build. A service-by-area estate costs more because there are more pages, but not proportionally more: the pages are generated from your service list and coverage, which is how Ren-Lock got to fifty-six pages without a fifty-six-page bill.
Yes. We are based in Canary Wharf, London and work with businesses across the UK, including Reading. Everything from the brief to the launch is done remotely, which is why a site starts at £150 rather than at four figures.
That is what it is built for. Your services get their own pages, your area is written into the content properly rather than stuffed into a footer, the site ships with local business structured data, and we line your Google Business Profile up with it. Nobody can guarantee a position, but this is the work that decides one.
Same platform, different thinking. Each trade has its own page because each one sells in its own way.
We build the same thing, tuned to each place. If your town is not here, ask. We will build the page for it.
Tell us about the business and we come back with a real number, usually the same working day. Sites start at £150 and Webukit is included.
Name, email and phone number are all required. We ring you back.
We have your enquiry and we will come back to you from a real email address, usually the same working day.
