Home/Websites for plumbers
Websites for plumbers that make the phone ring.
When a pipe bursts at 10pm, nobody flicks through a directory. They grab their phone and search. We build plumber websites that show up, look trustworthy in seconds and put a tap-to-call button under their thumb - designed, written and run for you for £39.99 a month.
Illustration: what customers see on their phone
Most plumbing searches happen on a phone, often in a hurry.
Why plumbers need a website
Word of mouth gets you known. A website gets you chosen.
Plenty of good plumbers run on recommendations and a busy van. But look at what happens after the recommendation: the customer searches your name. If nothing comes up, or just a Facebook page with three posts from 2021, a lot of them quietly ring the next plumber instead.
Emergencies are searched, not remembered
Burst pipes, no hot water, a boiler showing a fault code on a January morning - these are panic searches like “emergency plumber near me”. The customer calls the first plumber who looks local, available and trustworthy. Your website is how you become that plumber, even if they have never heard of you.
Stop paying for every lead
Lead and directory sites charge a membership or a fee per job enquiry, and you are listed alongside every competitor in your postcode. Those enquiries are often shared with several other trades. Customers who find your own website ring you, and only you, at no extra cost per call.
Trust matters when you are going into someone’s home
People are letting a stranger into their house, sometimes to work on their gas supply. A proper website with your Gas Safe registration, insurance, accreditations, real photos of your work and honest reviews answers their worries before they pick up the phone - and makes it easier to quote properly for bigger jobs.
Win the jobs you actually want
If you would rather fit bathrooms and boilers than unblock sinks, your website can say so. Separate pages for boiler installation, bathroom fitting or underfloor heating attract those customers and push your diary towards the higher-value work.
Built around real searches
What your customers type into Google - and how your site answers.
We don’t write generic “welcome to our website” filler. Every page is written around the searches people make when they need a plumber in your area.
emergency plumber near me
A clear 24/7 call-out section, your response time and a call button at the top of the page.
boiler repair [your town]
A dedicated boiler repair & servicing page listing the makes you work on and the areas you cover.
new boiler cost
Honest “from” prices or a guide to what affects the price - the page that turns researchers into quote requests.
blocked drain plumber
Each service gets its own section, so Google can match you to specific jobs, not just “plumber”.
bathroom fitters near me
A gallery of finished bathrooms - the thing renovation customers look at before anything else.
gas safe engineer [your town]
Your Gas Safe registration shown clearly and linked to the official register for instant reassurance.
What goes on a plumber’s website
Everything a plumbing business needs - nothing it doesn’t.
Your 3-5 page site is planned around how plumbing customers behave: in a hurry, on a phone, wanting to know you’re local and legit.
Tap-to-call on every page
A sticky call button on mobile, so an emergency customer is one tap away from ringing you.
Gas Safe & accreditations
Gas Safe, WaterSafe, CIPHE, manufacturer approvals and insurance - shown where customers look for them.
Areas you cover
Your towns and postcodes listed clearly, plus a map - so local customers (and Google) know you’re nearby.
Service-by-service pages
Boilers, leaks, drains, bathrooms, heating - each explained in plain English so you rank for each job.
Job photo gallery
Before-and-after shots of your work. Phone photos are fine - we crop and tidy them up.
Your reviews, front and centre
Pull in your best Google, Checkatrade or Facebook reviews so new customers see what others say.
Quote request form
For non-urgent jobs: customers describe the work and it lands in your inbox, ready to price up in the evening.
Hours & call-out info
Normal hours, out-of-hours availability and call-out charges spelled out, so you get fewer time-wasting calls.
Your options
Your own website vs lead sites vs a Facebook page.
Most plumbers use a mix. Here’s where each one fits - and why the website is the piece you control.
| Your own website | Lead / directory sites | Facebook page only | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cost per enquiry | None - flat monthly fee | Membership or pay-per-lead | Free, but reach is limited unless you pay for ads |
| Competitors on the page | Just you | Listed next to other local plumbers | Ads and other pages alongside |
| Shows up in Google searches | Yes - for your name, services and towns | The directory ranks, not you | Rarely for service searches |
| Looks professional | Your brand, your photos, your words | Standard profile layout | Depends how often you post |
| If you stop paying | Take your domain with you | Profile and reviews disappear | Nothing to lose, but nothing built |
Keep your directory listings if they work for you - we’ll link to them from your site and show off your ratings. The website just means you’re not relying on them.
Plumber website cost
How much should a plumbing website cost?
A typical web design agency quote for a small plumbing business is £1,000 to £3,000 upfront, plus hosting, plus an hourly rate every time you want something changed. DIY builders like Wix look cheaper at £15-£30 a month, but you are the one writing, designing and fixing it - after a ten-hour day on the tools.
We think a plumber’s website should work like a good boiler service plan: a fixed monthly cost and someone else keeping it running. For £39.99 a month we design your site, write all the copy, register your domain, host it, keep it secure and make changes when you ask.
Put simply: if your website brings in one extra job a month, it has paid for itself several times over.

FAQ
Questions plumbers ask us.
How much does a website for a plumber cost?
Agencies typically charge £1,000-£3,000 upfront for a plumbing website, then extra for hosting and changes. With GetOnWeb it is £39.99 a month with no setup fee: design, every word of copy, your domain, hosting and an hour of changes each month are all included. Cancel anytime.
I already get work from Checkatrade / MyBuilder. Do I still need a website?
Lead sites are useful, but you pay for every lead or a monthly membership, and you are listed right next to your competitors. Your own website is where people land when they search your business name, check your reviews, or hear about you from a neighbour. It also lets you put your directory badges and ratings in front of customers on your own terms.
Will my website show up when people search "plumber near me"?
We build every page so Google understands what you do and where: your services, the towns you cover, your address and opening hours, all marked up properly. Pairing the site with a Google Business Profile is the strongest combination for local searches. Nobody can honestly guarantee a #1 spot, but a well-built local site gives you a real chance.
Can customers call me straight from the website?
Yes. Your phone number sits at the top of every page, and on mobiles there is a tap-to-call button that stays on screen as people scroll. Most plumbing enquiries come from phones, so this is the single most important feature on the site.
Can you show my Gas Safe registration and accreditations?
Yes. If you are Gas Safe registered we show your registration and link to the Gas Safe Register so customers can check it themselves. WaterSafe, CIPHE membership, manufacturer approvals (Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Baxi and so on) and insurance details can all go on the site too.
I am a one-man band. Is it worth it?
That is exactly who we built this for. You get a site that looks like an established firm, without spending evenings on Wix. One extra boiler service or bathroom job a month more than covers the cost.
How do I update prices, photos or the areas I cover?
Just send us a message. One hour of changes is included every month - enough for new job photos, a price update, a new town or a seasonal offer like boiler servicing before winter.
Do I own the domain name?
We register it for your business and manage it as part of the service. If you ever leave, we transfer it to your own account for a one-off £20 and it is entirely yours.
