Websites for Decorators

Websites for Decorators

Decorating is judged entirely on the finish, and the finish photographs beautifully. Crisp cutting-in, a flawless sprayed door, wallpaper matched across a chimney breast: pictures like these win work on their own. Fruitcake Media builds websites for painters and decorators from £39 a month that put your finish in front of the people searching for it.

Why decorators with websites stay booked

Most decorating enquiries now start with a local search. Homeowners look for a decorator, compare the few that appear, and contact the ones whose work they can actually see. A professional website with a strong gallery does the persuading before you arrive to quote. It also frames you as a business rather than a bloke with a brush, which matters for the better-paying work: full house redecorations, new-build snagging, commercial contracts and landlord portfolios.

A website also smooths the seasonal swings every decorator knows. Exterior work fills the summer diary; a website that promotes interior work, from hallways to full refurbishments, keeps enquiries arriving through autumn and winter. And because customers can see your standard in advance, the enquiries you get are from people who already want your quality, not just the cheapest quote.

What your decorating website should include

• A gallery organised by room and job type, interior and exterior, domestic and commercial
• Close-up shots that show the detail: woodwork, cutting-in, paper joins and sprayed finishes
• The services you offer beyond brush and roller, such as spraying, wallpapering and plaster repair
• The areas you cover, so local customers and search engines both find you
• Genuine customer reviews, because decorating is bought on trust as well as looks
• A tap-to-call number and a short quote form with the option to attach photos of the job

Getting found locally

Decorating is a local service and local search is where the work is. SEO foundations are built into every website we produce, and our monthly SEO service helps busy firms rank across every town they cover. We build websites for trades across Cheshire and across the UK.

Pricing without the upfront hit

Our pay monthly packages start at £39 a month with no lump sum to find. Hosting, SSL, daily backups, updates and real human support are all included, and you can add new job photos yourself from your phone, so your gallery grows as fast as your portfolio.

What a decorator's website costs to run

Most sole-trader decorators start on the £39 a month Starter package: a gallery-led site with services, areas covered and contact. Firms running teams usually choose Active at £79 a month for the blog (perfect for project write-ups), quarterly health checks and manual SEO work including Google Business Profile setup. Nothing is paid upfront, so the site starts earning from the first job it wins.

Common questions from decorators

How important are photographs, really?

They are the whole sale. A tight, well-lit shot of crisp cutting-in or matched wallpaper does more than any paragraph. We build the gallery to be updated from your phone, so every finished room can join it.

Should I list prices?

Day rates and guide prices filter enquiries brilliantly: the customers who contact you already accept your range. If you prefer to quote per job, a clear how-I-quote section does the same filtering work.

Do I need a page for every service?

Interior, exterior, wallpapering and spraying each deserve their own page, because each is its own search. A homeowner searching for a wallpaper specialist should land on wallpaper, not a generic homepage.

How quickly can the site go live?

Most decorator websites are live within two to four weeks of starting, faster when your photographs and details arrive early.
