Demo sites: construction

Website design for construction companies and trade contractors

A construction website shows the RBQ licence number in plain view, real before-and-after project photos, a clear list of the towns served and a quote form that lets the client attach pictures. The phone number stays visible on mobile, because most calls come from a job site or a driveway.

. 5 demo websites. The brands, copy and images in these demos are invented for demonstration purposes.

Why does the RBQ licence number belong on a contractor's website?

In Quebec, a construction contractor has to show its Régie du bâtiment licence number in its advertising, and a website counts as advertising. Homeowners use that number too: they look the company up in the RBQ registry before they call. A roofer or renovation contractor who buries it on a back page loses calls, especially from people who have been burned before. The right spot is the footer of every page, plus the quote page. Master electricians and plumbers who belong to the CMEQ or the CMMTQ are the exception: the RBQ exempts them from showing the number, because their corporation's logo identifies them.

What kind of project photos make a homeowner pick up the phone?

Stock photos fool nobody. What gets the phone ringing is a before-and-after shot from the same angle: the dated kitchen, then the same room redone, or the worn shingles, then the new metal roof. For a new home builder, a series that follows one house from footings to key handover beats ten finished facades. A demolition company can show the same lot before, during and after, with what was sorted and sent for recycling. Each project deserves its own page with the town, the type of work, the season and the problem that had to be solved. Those pages rank on their own in Google for searches like roof replacement in Laval.

How does an online quote request cut down on wasted site visits?

A good quote form asks what the estimator would ask on the phone: type of work, town or address, when the client wants it done, and photos of the area. With three pictures of a backed-up drain or an original electrical panel, the plumber or electrician already knows whether a visit is needed and what to bring. A landscaper sees the yard before blocking off a morning for it. The form asks only for what is needed to price the job, explains what the information is used for, as Quebec's Law 25 requires, and sends the request straight to the company inbox. Nothing gets lost between two job sites.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions: Construction

Do I have to show my RBQ licence number on my website?
Yes. A contractor holding a licence from the Régie du bâtiment du Québec must include the licence number in its advertising, and that includes the website and social media posts. Only CMEQ and CMMTQ members are exempt, since their corporation's logo is enough. The simplest way is to put it in the footer so it shows on every page.
Can a website really bring in more quote requests?
It can, if people find you and trust what they see when they land. A page per service and per area served, real projects with photos and a short form make the difference. A site that is only a home page and a phone number rarely shows up in local searches.
I'm a roofer and my work is seasonal. Should my website change through the year?
It helps. The site can push roof inspections in spring, snow removal from roofs in winter or storm repairs after a big wind. The core content stays the same. You mostly swap the home page message and the featured services, which you can do yourself in the editor.
Can I list my warranties and insurance on my website?
Yes, and it often reassures homeowners more than anything else. Just list what you actually have: liability insurance, the Garantie de construction résidentielle plan for new homes if you are accredited, your own workmanship warranty. Advertising a warranty or accreditation you don't hold can get you in trouble under Quebec's Consumer Protection Act.
How much does a site like these cost, and how long does it take to go live?
The price is set after a no-commitment scoping meeting, based on the number of pages, the languages, the copy to write and features like booking or an online store. A simple showcase site goes live quickly; an online store or a client portal takes longer. If you have a fixed date, we build the schedule around it.
Do I own the website?
Yes. The domain name is registered in your name, the copy, images and analytics are yours, and the code is handed over on request.
