Quote requests
A short form where customers tell you what they need, where they are and attach a few photos. It lands in your inbox with everything you need to price it up.

Things I can build into your site.
Getting people in touch
Make it easy for someone to go from “they look good” to actually getting hold of you.
Tap to call and WhatsApp
Big, obvious buttons that ring you or open a WhatsApp chat. Most of your visitors are on their phones, so this is often how the work comes in.
Your Google reviews
Your star rating and latest reviews pulled onto the site automatically, so new customers see what old ones thought without leaving the page.
Opening hours with live readout
Opening or service times that show whether you’re open right now, with bank holidays and one-off closures you can add yourself.
Showing off your work
For trades especially, the photos do the selling. These help them do it properly.
BeforeAfter
Before and after sliders
Drag the handle across a photo to see the job before and after. It shows the difference you made far better than two photos side by side.
Rough price£3,450 to £4,200
Example prices for the demo, not a real quote.
Instant price estimates
Customers answer a couple of questions and get a ballpark figure there and then. It weeds out the time-wasters and gets the serious ones asking for a proper quote.
Gallery of recent jobs
Photos of your work, sorted by type of job so someone after a new driveway isn’t scrolling past fencing. Add new ones from your phone.
“Do you cover my area?” checker
Customers type in their postcode and find out straight away whether you work there. No more calls from three counties over.
Bookings and payments
Let people book and pay at any hour, without you answering the phone to do it.

Online booking
Appointments, classes, table bookings or hall hire. People pick a free slot, get a confirmation email and a reminder the day before.
Deposits and card payments
Take a deposit when someone books, or the full amount up front. Card, Apple Pay and Google Pay, paid straight into your bank, and far fewer people forget to turn up.
Gift vouchers
People buy a voucher online and it’s emailed with a code to use. Handy for cafés, salons and anyone who gets asked “do you do gift cards?”
A small online shop
Not a full Amazon, just a handful of things people can buy and pay for online, with delivery or collection. School uniform, merch, homemade jam.
Payment subscriptions (weekly, monthly or yearly)
Customers sign up once and are charged automatically every week, month or year. Good for food boxes, memberships and regular orders. They can cancel whenever they like, and the money goes straight into your bank.
Event tickets
Sell tickets for the school disco, quiz night or summer fête. Set how many there are, and it stops selling when they’re gone.
Fundraising
For PTAs, churches and charities: more ways to raise money, less counting coins.
St Mary’s roof appeal
£0 raised of £5,000
£0 raised of £5,000- Margaret£20 + Gift Aid
- The Wright family£50
Donations
One-off or monthly donations, with Gift Aid ticked off at the same time and a progress bar towards your target so people can see it working.
Lucky Squares£1 a square · prize pot £26
Tap a free square to pick it.
Lucky Squares and small lotteries
Lucky Squares, 100 clubs and raffles, all run online. People pick and pay for their squares, and the draw happens on screen for everyone to see.
Sponsorship pages
A page for the fun run, sponsored silence or bake-off, with a running total and a list of who’s chipped in.
Keeping people in the loop
The stuff that keeps a site useful long after launch day.
News and events you can edit yourself
A simple dashboard for posting news, adding events and changing photos. No need to email me every time something changes, unless you want to.
Newsletter sign-up
A sign-up box that adds people straight to your mailing list, whether that’s Mailchimp or something else.
Online forms
Permission slips, membership applications, volunteer sign-ups. Replies come to you neatly, and nobody has to find a pen.
Members-only area
Logins for committee members, staff or volunteers to get at minutes, documents and rotas, with different access for different roles.
Volunteer rotas
People pick their own slot on the cake stall or the church flowers, and get a reminder nearer the time.
Behind the scenes
Not flashy, but they’re on every site I build.
Getting found on Google
On every plan: your site built so people searching locally find you, your Google Business Profile set up properly, and advice on reviews, replies and photos to keep it working for you.
