How much does a website for a general contractor cost?

From $4,500 one-time at Nabee Studio (standard from $7,500), or $499/mo for 24 months with the Maintenance Plan and hosting included. One scoping pass produces a fixed number — no hourly billing.

What should a general contractor website include?

Beyond presenting the business: the workflows that remove manual work — portfolio-driven lead capture and lead capture without a live answer — plus the integrations general contractors actually use.

Who maintains the website after launch?

We do. The Maintenance Plan ($299/mo, included in the payment plan) covers hosting, SSL, security, backups, updates, and small content changes — you never inherit a server login you didn't ask for.

Is a template or website builder good enough instead?

Sometimes — if the site just needs to exist and you're happy doing the manual work a template can't remove. The honest comparison is in our custom vs website builder guide.

Custom website for general contractors

Updated August 2026 · Nabee Studio

A custom website for a general contractor costs from $4,500 one-time at Nabee Studio, or $499/mo for 24 months with maintenance and hosting included. Unlike a template, it's designed around how a general contractor actually operates — removing the manual touchpoints (Presenting past projects in an outdated or thin gallery) that template sites force on you.

For a general contractor, the website is the portfolio and the professionalism — the two things a homeowner uses to decide whether to trust you with their house for the next several months. Finished-project photography, a clear explanation of your process, and real reviews do more to win a remodel than any pitch, because they let a nervous buyer picture their own project going smoothly in your hands. The work being roughly equal, the contractor who presents it best wins.

We build contractor sites that showcase the craftsmanship properly and pair every project story with an easy, professional consultation request — so a homeowner who's just fallen for your kitchen remodel has an obvious next step. The construction-management software you run projects in stays the operational backbone; the website's job is to fill the top of the funnel with the right projects and to make the first impression match the quality of the finished work. That's a targeted marketing build, not a gallery afterthought.

The reality for most general contractors

Weak portfolio presentation on a visual purchase

Homeowners buy remodels with their eyes and their trust, judging contractors by finished-project photos and reviews. A thin or dated gallery undersells real craftsmanship and loses projects to competitors who present their work well — the work being equal, presentation decides.

Leads missed while on the job site

The owner is often on-site with tools in hand, unable to answer the phone, so inquiries go to voicemail and to the next contractor on the list. Without a way to capture and route leads without a live answer, the business loses projects purely to being busy doing projects.

Long sales cycle with no follow-up discipline

From first inquiry to signed contract can take weeks of consultations, quotes, and revisions. Without systematic follow-up, promising projects stall and homeowners drift to a contractor who stayed in touch — and on remodel-sized tickets, each lost lead hurts.

What does it cost?

One scoping pass, one fixed number — no hourly billing. A custom website with a strong portfolio, clear process, and disciplined lead follow-up covers most general contractors; construction-management software runs the projects themselves.

Website — from $4,500 one-time (standard from $7,500), or $499/mo for 24 months with the Maintenance Plan and hosting included.

The monthly plan totals somewhat more than paying up front — that's the honest trade for spreading the cost and having us operate everything for two years. Details in the payment plan guide and on the pricing page.
