Local coverage
Decorators are judged on the finish, not on price alone
Decorating is a trade almost anyone could attempt themselves, which changes the sell entirely: the website's job is to prove that a professional finish is worth paying for, not just that the job will get done. Sharp lines, an even coat and a tidy site during the work are the actual product, and they're only provable through real, close-up photography.
Domestic customers usually compare on trust and turnaround as much as price: whether the quote is fair, whether the decorator will turn up when they say, and whether the finish will hold up. Landlord and letting agent work runs on a different clock entirely, wanting a void property repainted between tenants in days, not weeks, with as little back-and-forth as possible.
Colour and finish choice is also where a decorating site can genuinely help rather than just describe: a gallery organised by room type or finish lets an undecided customer picture their own space before they've even asked for a quote.
What tends to work here
What to fix
Four things missing from most decorators' sites
No before-and-after gallery, or a stale one
Decorating sells on visible finish quality. A handful of blurry photos from years ago undersells work that might genuinely be excellent.
No indication of price, even roughly
A rough guide by room size or job type keeps an undecided customer on the page rather than bouncing to a competitor who at least gave a starting figure.
Nothing aimed at landlords or letting agents
Void turnaround work runs on a completely different urgency to a homeowner's feature wall, and it deserves its own section speaking directly to that customer.
Interior and exterior work aren't distinguished
They're different skills, different weather dependencies and often different customers entirely. Lumping them together as one vague "decorating" service undersells both.

What it costs
What a Painters & Decorators website costs, on one scale
The three build packages against the same scale, so you can see where each one starts and where they meet.
£800 to £1,000. A straightforward service or brochure site.
£1,000 to £1,300. Fully responsive design, my default recommendation.
On application, for businesses where the website is core infrastructure.

Proof, not promises
Every one left by a real client on Google, Facebook, Trustpilot or Wix. Nothing here is a quote I chose because it flattered me.
Questions
Painters & Decorators web design questions
Do you build sites for decorators outside Medway, like in Tunbridge Wells or Sevenoaks?+
Yes. I'm based in Gillingham but build across Kent, and the site names the towns you actually cover so Google can match you to searches from each of them.
Can the gallery be organised by room type or finish?+
Yes, and I'd recommend it. Letting an undecided customer browse by the kind of job they want, rather than one long unsorted gallery, keeps them looking rather than leaving.
I do a lot of landlord turnaround work, can the site speak to that directly?+
Yes. It's a genuinely different customer to a homeowner planning a feature wall, and it deserves its own section rather than being buried in a general services list.
Should I put prices on the site if every job is different?+
A rough guide by room size or job type, yes, even if the final quote varies. It's far more useful to an undecided customer than "contact me for a quote" alone.
How is this different from a generic web design agency?+
I build around what actually sells decorating work: real, close-up photography of the finish, and a fast route for landlord and turnaround enquiries. A generic agency usually treats it like any other trade's site.
