Why Most Builder Websites Fail to Generate Leads
You're brilliant at extensions, renovations, and new builds. But if your website looks like it was built in 2010, customers will call the builder with the professional-looking site instead.
DIY Websites That Look Amateur
Wix and Squarespace templates scream "I did this myself." Customers want to hire professionals, and that starts with looking like one online.
Missing Calls While You're on Site
You're managing a build when the phone rings. By the time you call back, they've already got quotes from three other builders.
No Reviews, No Trust
You do great work, but your Google reviews don't reflect it. Without a system, happy customers forget to leave feedback.
Paying Too Much for Too Little
Web agencies charge £150-200/month for a basic site. No review system, no lead tracking, no missed call handling. Just a website.
Watch: Real Builder Website Audit
Don't just take my word for it. Watch as I break down a real builder's loft conversions page and show exactly why it's not ranking — and the 7 fixes that will change that.
Key Takeaways
- Your H1 tag must include both your service keyword and target location
- Phone number and email should be visible and clickable in your header
- Add local case studies and project photos to prove your expertise
- Link from your homepage to service pages to pass authority

No Sales Team.
Just Results.
I'm Elliot. I started Local Ladder because I saw too many good builders and tradespeople getting ripped off by agencies selling "SEO packages" that did absolutely nothing.
I work directly with you. No account managers, no outsourcing to cheap overseas call centres. Just straightforward websites and marketing systems that get your phone ringing with extension enquiries, renovation projects, and new build opportunities.
If I don't think I can help you, I'll tell you. I prefer long-term partners over quick sales.
Our Clients Speak For Themselves
"Elliot was exceptional. We are ranking high and our business profile has vastly improved and is driving the traffic I'd expect."
"Elliot seriously knows his stuff. He gave us clear milestones and provided frequent and in depth reporting throughout. We couldn't be happier."
"We've seen a 20% increase in leads over the last three months. The fireplace installation pages are ranking great and the Google Business Profile integration is seamless."
