Web Design Edmonton for Trades: Convert More Leads for Plumbers, Electricians & Contractors
Picture this: It’s -25°C, a pipe bursts in Windermere, and a homeowner searches “plumber near me” on their phone. They’ll call the first local site that loads fast, looks trustworthy, and makes it easy to tap “Call Now.” If that’s not your website, you’re losing the job before you even know it was up for grabs.
At Superjet Sites, we build fast, clean, affordable websites for Edmonton trades that turn clicks into calls. We also offer simple monthly plans for ongoing site care and help with getting found on Google—so you stay busy without babysitting your website.
What your website should do (in plain English)
- Load quickly, even on spotty cell service.
- Make calling, texting, or booking a no-brainer.
- Show real proof: reviews, photos, certifications.
- Explain services in everyday language.
- Make it clear where you work (Edmonton, St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Spruce Grove, Leduc, Fort Saskatchewan—say it clearly).
- Look great on phones.
- Answer “Do you do emergency calls?” and “How soon can you come?” right away.
Why this matters for local trades
- People in a hurry choose the business that’s easiest to contact, period.
- Most searches for local services happen on phones—especially for “uh-oh” moments like no heat, no power, or roof leaks.
- Your website is your 24/7 dispatcher. If it’s slow or confusing, jobs slip away.
If you haven’t claimed or updated your Google Business Profile (the panel that shows your phone number, reviews, and hours), you’re leaving calls on the table. Google’s own help guide explains how accurate info and good reviews help you show up for local searches: Improve your local ranking on Google.
A simple page layout that wins more calls
- Big, clear headline: what you do + where you work (e.g., “Emergency Electricians in Edmonton”).
- Tap-to-call buttons at the top and bottom.
- Short list of services with plain-English explanations.
- Real photos of your team and trucks (not stock photos of shiny tools).
- Trust signals: reviews, years in business, safety certifications (WCB, COR), warranties.
- Service area map or list of neighborhoods.
- Quick answers: pricing ranges, after-hours availability, how fast you can get there.
- A short form for free estimates—5 fields max.
The 5‑minute “phone test” (do this right now)
- Search your service + “Edmonton” on your phone.
- Tap your site. Does it load in under 3 seconds?
- Can you call or text in one tap?
- Can you find services and service areas without scrolling forever?
- Do reviews and photos make you feel confident?
If you said “not really” to any of these, you’re likely losing leads.
