What does the $2,199 starting price include?+
Core Multi-Page includes the main business pages, a dedicated page for every agreed service, professional copywriting, image selection, mobile design, enquiry forms, licence display and the foundations for local and AI search. Extra suburb coverage or additional systems are scoped before you commit.
How much does a plumber website cost in New Zealand?+
It depends on what the site needs to do, from cheap template and DIY sites at the bottom to big-agency builds at the top. Ours start at $2,199 for the Core Multi-Page build, scoped up front so there are no surprises. Hosting and maintenance are separate after the included period and start from $59 a month. Either way, your business owns the site outright.
Do I own the website?+
Yes. Your business owns the website outright. Hosting and ongoing maintenance are separate after the included period and start from $59 a month.
Can you guarantee a number-one Google ranking for my plumbing website?+
No honest agency can guarantee a Google position. But what we do ensure is that we build the foundations: useful service and area content, a fast mobile experience, consistent business details, clear calls to action and a Google Business Profile that matches the website. Results still depend on competition, authority, reviews and time.
What makes a good plumber website design?+
A good plumber website design puts the job the customer is searching for front and centre: a fast, mobile-first layout with tap-to-call at the top, a dedicated page for each service (emergency, blocked drains, hot water, gas, etc), your licence and reviews where doubt appears, and a Google Business Profile that matches. Looks matter, but the design is judged on one thing: whether it turns a search into a phone call.
Do we need to meet in person to build my plumbing site?+
No. The build runs by phone, email and video call. We can use material you already have, including your existing site, Google listing, social profiles and job photos, so you are not left writing pages after a day on the tools.
Do you build websites for plumbers outside the major cities?+
Yes, we build for plumbers anywhere in New Zealand. The whole build runs by phone, email and video, so where you are based makes no difference. Wherever you work, we structure the site around the suburbs you cover, not ours, whether that is one of the main centres or a regional town.
I already have a website. Will I lose my Google rankings if you rebuild it?+
No, protecting what you already rank for is part of the job. We map every page your current site holds before anything changes, carry the addresses across or redirect them properly, and monitor things after launch.
How long does it take to build a plumber website?+
Seven days from your discovery call to launch, as long as we have your photos and business details. Most of your time is that first call, 30 to 45 minutes. We write the copy, sort the photos and set up your Google Business Profile while you stay on the tools. If you want changes after the first draft, we build those in before go-live.
Do I need a website if I already get most of my work from word of mouth?+
Word of mouth is great, but it has a ceiling and it is out of your control. When someone gets your name from a mate, the first thing they usually do is search you to check you are real, licensed and reviewed. No website, or an old one, plants doubt at the exact moment they are deciding. A proper site backs up every referral and brings in the searches your competitors are already catching.
What is the difference between a website and a Google Business Profile?+
Your Google Business Profile is the free listing that shows in Google Maps and the local results, with your reviews, hours and phone number. Your website is the page people land on to decide whether to call you. You need both, and they work best together: the profile helps you get found, the website turns that visit into a booked job. We set up and match both so Google sees one consistent business.
How does the 30 day money back guarantee work?+
If within 30 days you decide the new site is not working for you, we refund you and can restore your old site. That's the guarantee.
What licensing should a plumbing website show in New Zealand?+
In New Zealand, sanitary plumbing, gasfitting and drainlaying are restricted under the Plumbers, Gasfitters, and Drainlayers Act 2006: apart from limited exemptions, such as supervised work, only people licensed by the Plumbers, Gasfitters, and Drainlayers Board (PGDB) can do them. Customers can check any tradesperson on the Board's public register, so we display your PGDB licence prominently in your website header, footer and structured data, where they will look for it before they call.
Why do plumbers need dedicated pages for specific plumbing services instead of one general page?+
Google and AI search engines match search queries to specific, dedicated URLs rather than general bullet points on a home page. A homeowner searching for emergency blocked drains or hot water heat pump installation expects an immediate, dedicated solution. Having individual pages for high-margin jobs like gas fitting, leak detection, and drain relining allows each service to rank independently on local Google search.
Can a plumbing website help get work outside the 5km Google Maps radius?+
Yes. While a Google Business Profile primarily appears in the local map pack within 3 to 5 kilometres of your registered address, a website with dedicated suburb and area pages ranks organically across your entire territory. Our Max and Pro packages build 10 to 20 local suburb pages so your business appears in searches across 10 to 20 surrounding suburbs, not just your home postcode.
What specific features must a plumber website have to turn visitors into phone calls?+
A high-converting plumber website requires seven core elements: a sticky tap-to-call button with 24/7 or emergency hours clarity, dedicated pages for each major service, local suburb coverage pages, your PGDB licence on show, verified customer reviews from Google, upfront pricing or call-out fee transparency, and fast mobile loading under two seconds.
