What a contractor site needs here

A Seattle contractor website that wins the estimate

Lithium Marketing builds contractor websites in WordPress for Seattle service businesses, and each one has a single job: turn a visit into a phone call or an estimate request. In Seattle, 52.8% of homes were built before 1980, so the projects on your site should look like the city’s housing: a rewired older house, a repiped basement, a dated kitchen opened up, each labeled with the neighborhood and what changed.

Seattle has newer housing too, with 21% of homes built in 2010 or later. A site that separates the two, older-home repairs in one gallery and work on newer houses in another, lets each owner find a project that looks like theirs.

Seattle homes and owners

Seattle’s housing and what your website should show

Owners live in only 43.7% of Seattle’s occupied homes. If landlords or property managers send you work, give them a page of their own: how you arrange tenant access, how you bill an owner who lives elsewhere and what photos you send back after the job.

Seattle sits in a major earthquake zone. If you do seismic retrofits, foundation bolting or chimney bracing, give that work its own page with photos of finished jobs, because a single line in a services list won’t show a homeowner what the work involves.

Remodelers and painters

What King County remodelers and painters need on screen

Residential remodelers top the King County chart at 1,651. With that many in the county, the gallery is where a remodeler can stand apart, so we sort finished kitchens, baths and additions onto their own pages, each with a note on the problem it solved.

The county’s 531 painting contractors need something slightly different: a site that opens on finished interiors and exteriors, puts the estimate button right beside them and spells out what a quote includes, from prep to cleanup.

How the build runs

From kickoff to launch: building your Seattle site

Your part is photos, answers and approvals; we handle the writing, design and build.

1

Agree on the page list

On a kickoff call we settle which services, project types and Seattle neighborhoods get their own pages.

2

Write copy around your jobs

You send job photos and your service list, and we write every page so it answers what a customer wants to know before calling.

3

Sign off on the design

We show you the homepage and one service page as designs; once you approve them, every other page follows the same pattern.

4

Test, launch and train

Every form, call link and tracking tag gets tested before the site goes live, and a private Loom video shows you how to post a finished job yourself.

What every Lithium website includes

The same eight parts go into every website build, wherever the business is.

A plumbing case

Sarkinen Plumbing’s rebuilt website, plus its SEO and Google Ads

Sarkinen Plumbing serves the Portland area, not Seattle. Lithium rebuilt its website and ran its SEO and Google Ads, and the numbers on the card are the product of all three. Chris Martin of Mt. Hood Pro Painting gives his account of working with Lithium in the quote.

“Ever since we've used Lithium Marketing, our phone has been ringing off the hook and we can hardly keep up with the leads we get from Google, Facebook or through our website. Most of our leads other than referrals are through Google and it's all because of Lithium Marketing.”

Published price

$5,000

Larger sites get a fixed proposal after a 30-minute discovery call. Six to nine weeks from kickoff to launch. You own the domain, hosting account, WordPress install and content.

FAQ

Seattle website questions from contractors

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].

Is $5,000 enough for a contractor website in Seattle?

For most contractors, yes. About 90% of Lithium’s builds come in at the typical price. The exceptions are sites with far more pages, such as a builder who wants forty project write-ups, and you see that larger price in writing before anything is built.

How long does a new website take?

Six to nine weeks from kickoff to launch. Most of the schedule depends on how quickly photos and feedback come back, so having job photos and your service list ready for the kickoff call keeps the build on pace.

What happens to my website if I stop working with Lithium?

The site stays yours. Your business owns the domain, the WordPress install and all of the content, so ending the relationship changes nothing about who controls it.

Will the site be fast on a phone with all those project photos?

Yes. We build to Google’s Core Web Vitals targets for loading speed, responsiveness and layout stability, and we compress gallery photos so they load quickly. Every page gets checked on a phone before launch.

Do you host the site, or do I?

Either works. You can host it wherever you like, or use Lithium’s optional hosting and maintenance at $99/month, which covers secure hosting, daily backups, software and security updates and basic website changes.
