How much does a decorator website cost?

From £800 for one professionally designed page with a gallery, services and contact options — plenty for many sole-trader decorators. £1,600 covers up to five pages if you want interior, exterior and commercial work separated. Larger packages are £3,000 and £4,000.

How many project photographs should I provide?

Ten to fifteen good ones is a strong start. Wide shots of finished rooms, a few close-ups of clean lines and woodwork, and any before-and-after pairs. Daylight helps enormously; phone photos are fine. I'll handle cropping, compression and layout.

Can I add before-and-after galleries?

Yes. Paired images from the same angle are the most persuasive thing on a decorating website. If you don't have many yet, we launch with your best finished work and add pairs as you photograph new jobs.

Can I show interior and exterior services separately?

Yes. They're different jobs with different seasons, different concerns and often different customers, so separate pages or clearly divided sections usually work better than combining them.

Can my website target local searches?

Yes. Page titles, descriptions, an areas covered section and location-aware wording are all part of the build. If you want to compete harder in specific towns, Local SEO Setup is available as an add-on.

Can you redesign my existing decorating website?

Yes. Most decorating redesigns are about bigger, better-organised photographs and a clearer path to a quote. Send your site through the free Website Score first for an honest assessment.

Customers judge decorating with their eyes

Nobody can tell a good decorator from a bad one by reading. They tell by looking at a cut-in line, a wall with no roller marks, a hallway that looks finished rather than freshly painted. That's why a decorating website lives or dies on its photographs. Generic stock images of paint tins and smiling people in overalls say nothing — a well-lit photo of a room you actually finished says everything, and it says it in a second.

What a decorating website should show

Show the work, explain the services, prove people were happy, and make the next step obvious.

Who this is for

Sole-trader decorators, two-man teams, painting and decorating companies, and firms handling interior and exterior work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents or commercial clients. Whether you mostly do domestic repaints or a mix of housing contracts and private work, the site is shaped around the jobs you want more of.

Working directly with me

You send photographs and a short conversation about the work you want; I design, build and launch it. Sample layouts I show you are always presented as concepts, never dressed up as someone else's finished project.

The services a decorating website should explain

Interior painting, exterior painting, wallpapering, spray finishing, woodwork and staircases, plaster repairs and making good, commercial repaints. Listing them properly means someone searching for wallpaper hanging finds a line that matches their job rather than a general 'painting and decorating' page they have to interpret. It also lets you highlight the work you'd rather have more of.

How project galleries help customers decide

A gallery works best when it's organised — interiors, exteriors, commercial — rather than a single scroll of unlabelled photos. Add a line to each: the room, the finish, roughly how long it took. Ten strong, well-lit photographs beat fifty average ones. If you photograph each job as you leave it, the gallery keeps improving without any extra effort.

Showing residential and commercial work clearly

A homeowner wants to know you'll be tidy, careful with their carpets and finished when you said. A commercial client wants to know about out-of-hours work, insurance, scale and invoicing. Separating the two means each reads like it was written for them, which is far more convincing than a single paragraph trying to reassure everybody at once.

Preparation, protection and finish

Most decorating complaints come from poor preparation, and most customers have heard a story about it. A short section explaining how you mask, protect floors and furniture, fill and sand, and how many coats you apply, quietly separates you from whoever quoted £200 less. It's the sort of detail that reads as confidence rather than sales talk.

Reviews and reassurance

Genuine reviews sit near your gallery, where they back up what people are already looking at. I'll show Google reviews, feedback from trade platforms or written comments customers have sent you. Anything you hold — insurance, qualifications, memberships — is displayed when you supply it, and nothing is invented.

Quote forms that ask the right things

For decorating, a handful of questions gets you most of the way to a price: how many rooms, interior or exterior, whether it's a repaint or new plaster, rough timescale, and the town. Leave space for a short description and allow a photo or two. That's usually enough to decide whether to visit and roughly what to expect when you do.

Mobile contact

Your number is a tap-to-call button in the header on every page, with WhatsApp alongside if you use it. Galleries are built to swipe comfortably on a phone, and the quote form is short enough that nobody abandons it halfway through.
