Website-as-a-Service for home-service companies

The $10,000 website.
Without the
$10,000 bill.

A professionally built, conversion-focused home-service website — designed, written, hosted, secured, maintained and supported for one predictable monthly price. No five-figure upfront invoice. No DIY website project. No chasing a freelancer every time something needs to change.

The offer, plainly

What you get starting at $299/month

Not a scorecard of marketing metrics. This is a website product — here's what the product actually is.

01

Professional website

Built for a real home-service company — not a template you have to assemble yourself on a Sunday night.

02

Copy included

We write the core website copy with your input. You don't get an empty document and a homework assignment.

03

Target launch: 7–14 days

A productized process designed to move far faster than a traditional two-to-four-month website project.

04

Hosting + maintenance

Hosting, SSL, security, backups and updates. The technical infrastructure is our problem, not yours.

05

Ongoing support

The website doesn't become abandoned software the day after launch. Real people, still answering.

The traditional website problem

The two bad options most operators get offered

For twenty years, buying a website meant picking between a big invoice and a second job. There's usually a third option now.

01

Option 1 — the big custom project

$8K–$20K+ upfront. Potentially excellent work. But expensive, slow, and often more than a smaller home-service company actually needs.

02

Option 2 — DIY

Cheap. But now the owner has another job: design it, write it, maintain it, troubleshoot it, optimize it. Usually at 10pm, badly, forever.

03

Option 3 — Website-as-a-Service

A professional website delivered through a standardized process and paid monthly instead of requiring a major upfront investment. That's the middle ground we're trying to create.

04

The hostage site

The version of any of the above where an agency owns your domain and hosting, so leaving means starting over. We don't do that, and neither should anyone else.

The obvious question

Okay. How can you possibly build a good website for $299/month?

Because we're not reinventing website development from scratch every time a home-service company hires us.

A traditional custom project can involve custom discovery, custom UX, completely bespoke design, several concepts, extensive wireframing, large stakeholder groups, many revision rounds and specialized development. That work can absolutely justify a five-figure price. Most home-service companies just don’t need all of it.

We use a productized website system built specifically for home services. We standardized the parts that don’t need reinventing — then customize the parts that make you you. And because we earn recurring revenue instead of needing the whole project profitable on day one, we can charge far less at the start.

Standardized

  • Page structures
  • Conversion patterns
  • Development systems
  • Technical infrastructure
  • Mobile behavior
  • Lead forms
  • SEO fundamentals
  • Launch process
  • Hosting
  • Maintenance
  • Onboarding

Customized to you

  • Your brand
  • Your services
  • Your market
  • Your photography
  • Your reviews
  • Your team
  • Your differentiators
  • Your offers

Productized doesn’t mean generic. It means we stopped rebuilding the wheel every time a roofer needs a website.

The honest part

So what's the trade-off?

You're trading unlimited customization for a set of things most home-service companies value more.

What you gain

  • Much lower upfront cost
  • Faster delivery
  • Predictable monthly pricing
  • Ongoing maintenance
  • Ongoing support
  • A proven home-service website system

What you give up

  • Months of brand discovery
  • Completely original art direction
  • Custom illustration
  • Highly specialized UX
  • Complex integrations
  • Advanced interactive features

If you need those, our Website-as-a-Service product isn’t the right solution — and we’ll recommend a custom engagement when a custom engagement actually makes sense.

We don’t need this to be the right website for everybody. It needs to be the right website for the companies it was built for.

Speed without sloppiness

How do we get a website live in 7–14 days?

Not by rushing the work. By removing the parts of traditional website development that don't need to be reinvented every time.

  5. Days 10–14

    QA + launch

    The unglamorous part that decides whether a launch goes well or quietly costs you traffic.

    • Mobile checks
    • Link checks
    • Analytics + Search Console
    • Metadata review
    • Redirect mapping
    • Technical SEO review
    • Domain connection

Complex websites, large migrations, delayed feedback, missing photography or unusual integrations can extend this timeline. 7–14 days is our target, not a guarantee.

Accountability, both ways

What can slow the process down?

Almost every delayed launch we've seen comes down to one of these six. None of them are mysterious.

01

Missing access

If nobody knows the domain password, we can't point the domain. This is the single most common launch delay.

02

Missing information

We need accurate service, company and market information. We won't guess about what you do or where you do it.

03

Slow feedback

A seven-day review delay is a seven-day project delay. There's no version of this where that isn't true.

04

Large websites

A ten-page site and a seventy-five-page multi-location site are different projects with different timelines.

05

Custom functionality

Calculators, customer portals, unusual integrations or custom development need additional time.

06

Major rebranding

If you need a whole new identity, logo and brand strategy first, that's a separate project — and it should be.

Our goal is speed without sloppiness — and that takes both of us.

Exact scope

What exactly do I get for $299/month?

No 'starting package' hand-waving. Here's the line-item version, with the numbers we haven't finalized clearly marked instead of quietly implied.

Fit check

Is the $299 plan enough for your company?

We'd rather talk you into the right plan than sell you the cheap one and renegotiate in month three.

Probably yes if

  • You serve primarily one market
  • You have a straightforward service offering
  • You need roughly 5–10 core pages
  • You don't need advanced custom functionality
  • You want someone else handling the technical work
  • You need a professional digital foundation
  • You're currently on an outdated or DIY website

You may need a larger plan if

  • You have multiple locations
  • You offer a long list of services
  • You need dozens of service-area pages
  • You need ongoing SEO content production
  • You need advanced CRM or integrations
  • You operate multiple brands
  • You need custom functionality
  • Your site architecture is significantly larger

We’ll tell you before you commit. No surprise scope changes after onboarding.

The fair counterargument

If this is $299, why would anyone still pay $10,000+?

Because sometimes they should. A fully custom website earns its price when the company genuinely needs what it buys.

Bespoke brand strategy

Highly custom design

Extensive UX research

Advanced functionality

Custom integrations

Large multi-location architecture

Original illustration or animation

Complex interactive tools

Extensive stakeholder input

We’re not trying to replace every custom website project. We’re solving a more common problem: a good home-service company needs a professional website, and that shouldn’t always require a five-figure check.

Run the numbers

Isn't $299/month more expensive over time?

It can be. We're not going to hide the math from you — here it is.

1 year at $299/mo

$3,588

3 years at $299/mo

$10,764

5 years at $299/mo

$17,940

What those payments include

  • Hosting
  • Security
  • Maintenance
  • Backups
  • Support
  • Routine changes
  • Ongoing infrastructure
  • A site that doesn't go stale

The other side

A $10,000 website may have a lower long-term total if you keep it for many years and need very little support. But it may also require separate hosting, maintenance, redesigns, support and development fees — and those invoices rarely show up in the original comparison.

This isn’t financing disguised as a website. It’s a different ownership and service model: higher upfront with lower recurring service, or lower upfront with ongoing management. Pick the one that fits how you run your business.

Set expectations correctly

When the traffic comes, your website should do its job

Your website can't make homeowners search for your service. Traffic comes from Google, Maps, LSAs, Ads, referrals, social, AI search and direct. The website's job is turning that attention into action.

  • Clear services
  • Obvious trust signals
  • Strong reviews
  • Good project photography
  • Easy calls-to-action
  • Fast mobile performance
  • Simple forms
  • Clear service areas

Said precisely

Does the $299 website include SEO?

It includes an SEO foundation. It does not include an ongoing SEO campaign. Those are two very different products and conflating them is how people get disappointed.

Included — the foundation

  • Crawlable architecture
  • Search-friendly URLs
  • Page titles
  • Metadata
  • Proper heading structure
  • Mobile optimization
  • Search Console setup
  • Analytics
  • Basic schema where appropriate
  • Sitemap
  • Indexation setup
  • Service-page structure

Not included — ongoing SEO

  • Content production
  • New service and city pages
  • Local SEO campaign work
  • Authority and link building
  • Regular optimization cycles
  • Competitor analysis
  • Ongoing keyword expansion
  • AI search optimization

Ongoing search growth requires a separate or higher-level marketing plan.

Migration

Will rebuilding my website hurt my Google rankings?

A migration always carries some SEO risk. Nobody should promise otherwise. What we can do is run the process that keeps that risk small.

01

Inventory every existing URL

02

Identify pages with traffic or rankings

03

Preserve valuable URLs wherever possible

04

Map old URLs to new URLs

05

301 redirect anything that changes

06

Preserve valuable content where appropriate

07

Preserve useful metadata

08

Configure Search Console

09

Submit and update the sitemap

10

Monitor indexation after launch

11

Review crawl errors post-launch

The goal isn’t just a prettier website. It’s improving the site without throwing away the authority you already built.

Your side of it

How much work is this going to create for me?

Less than a DIY build or a traditional agency process — but not zero. Here's exactly what we need from you.

What we need

  • Logo and brand assets
  • Service information
  • Service areas
  • Company information
  • Team information
  • Reviews
  • Photography
  • Access to your existing website
  • Domain and DNS access
  • Feedback during the review round

We write the core website copy. You’re not receiving an empty Google Doc with “fill this out and send it back when you’re done” attached to it.

Your job is to provide accurate information and assets, review our work, tell us what’s factually wrong, and approve launch. That’s it.

Support scope

What does 'ongoing edits' actually mean?

Your plan includes a defined allowance of routine edits each month, specified in your agreement. We don't advertise 'unlimited' because we don't intend to operate that way.

Routine edits

  • Swap photos
  • Change employee information
  • Update a phone number
  • Add a review
  • Change copy
  • Update service details
  • Change a call-to-action
  • Add project images

Project work, not an edit

  • A completely new custom page
  • A full redesign
  • A new brand identity
  • A custom calculator
  • Custom application functionality
  • Major architecture changes

These get quoted separately so a big request doesn’t quietly consume the support everyone else is paying for.

Ownership

What do you actually own?

Subject to your final contractual terms — and the contract is the document that governs, not this page.

You own

  • Your domain
  • Your company name
  • Your logo
  • Your brand assets
  • Your photography
  • Your business information
  • Your analytics data
  • Your Google accounts
  • Your Google Business Profile
  • Your ad accounts
  • Your original client-provided assets
  • Your website content rights as defined in the agreement

Constructo / third-party software may retain

  • Proprietary CRM systems
  • Internal automation frameworks
  • Licensed third-party software
  • Reusable Constructo systems and components
  • Internal development infrastructure
  • Proprietary tools

Reusable systems and licensed software stay with us or their vendors. Your business assets never do.

Leaving

What happens if you cancel?

We don't want the cancellation process to become a hostage negotiation, so here's how it works in plain English.

01

Notice period

Roughly 45 days' cancellation notice, subject to your final contract terms.

02

Service stops

When the agreement ends, we stop hosting and managing the website. No mystery shutdowns before that.

03

Your assets stay yours

Domain, content, photography, analytics, Google accounts and ad accounts remain yours.

04

Transfer and export

The website transfer or export process follows the agreement, and we'll help you execute it.

05

Proprietary systems don't transfer

CRM and automation frameworks built on our proprietary systems stay with us. We say so up front, not on the way out.

06

Third-party subscriptions

Licensed software and third-party subscriptions may need to be replaced or migrated into your own accounts.

Final terms are governed by your service agreement. If anything here reads differently than the contract, the contract wins — and we’ll walk you through it before you sign.

No footnotes

The fine print, said plainly

Six things we'd rather you hear now than find out in month four.

01

This is a subscription

You're paying for the website plus ongoing management. Stop paying and the hosting and management stop with it.

02

$299 doesn't mean unlimited

Larger sites, more services and more locations cost more. We'll tell you that before you sign, not after.

03

Full SEO is separate

The website includes the foundation. Ongoing search growth requires ongoing work, and that's a different plan.

04

Add-ons are add-ons

CRM, call tracking, review automation and paid media may cost extra. We're not going to imply they're free.

05

Custom is still an option

Some companies genuinely should buy a bespoke custom website. If that's you, we'll say so.

06

We need you to move too

The 7–14 day target depends on access, assets and timely feedback. We can't launch a domain we can't reach.

Proof, labeled honestly

See what a Constructo website actually looks like

We'd rather show you real sites than invent conversion statistics. Our published client results are labeled by the service that produced them — website work is website work, and SEO results are SEO results.

What we can show you

  • No clear service structureA real page for every core service
  • Buried phone numberObvious calls-to-action on every screen
  • Hidden or missing reviewsReviews and project photography up front
  • Nobody maintaining itHosting, security and updates handled

What we won’t do

We’re not going to borrow an SEO case study and imply the website product produced those rankings. If a result came from a search campaign, it’s labeled as one. Ask us on a call and we’ll walk you through live client sites and the timelines they launched on.

The central idea

A professional website shouldn't mean choosing between a $10,000 invoice and doing it yourself

Built for you, written for you, live fast, maintained for you — starting at $299/month, with the economics explained instead of hidden.

Every question we get

Website-as-a-Service FAQ

Pricing, ownership, timelines, cancellation, SEO, migrations and the awkward ones. Real answers, not SEO filler.

Because we're not reinventing website development every time a home-service company hires us. The page structures, conversion patterns, development system, hosting, mobile behavior and launch process are already built and battle-tested. We customize that foundation around your company rather than starting from a blank canvas. And because we earn recurring revenue, the project doesn't have to be profitable on day one.
