Trades Web Studio

We Started Because We Saw a Problem That Needed Fixing

Trade businesses were getting ripped off by web agencies.

Not in an obvious way—but in the slow, frustrating kind of way that leaves you feeling stupid for asking questions. Vague quotes that balloon into surprise invoices. "Simple updates" that somehow cost £500. Technical jargon designed to confuse rather than clarify. Projects that take months longer than promised.

Meanwhile, the websites these agencies delivered? Pretty, sure. But they didn't generate leads. They didn't win jobs. They just... sat there.

We knew there had to be a better way.

So we built Trades Web Studio with three non-negotiable principles:

1. Fixed Monthly Pricing

You always know what you're paying. No surprise invoices. No hidden costs. No "Oh, that feature wasn't included in the original quote" nonsense.

We give you a clear monthly price that covers everything: hosting, maintenance, updates, support. If something breaks, we fix it. If you need changes, we make them. No nickel-and-diming.

2. Clear, Transparent Communication

No jargon. No confusing tech-speak. No making you feel stupid for asking questions.

We explain everything in plain English because you deserve to understand what you're paying for. If we can't explain it simply, we probably don't need to do it.

3. Honest Advice

We tell you what will actually grow your business—not what makes us the most money.

Sometimes that means talking clients out of expensive features they don't need. Sometimes it means being blunt about what won't work. We'd rather lose a sale than waste your money on something ineffective.

Why We Focus Exclusively on Trade Businesses

Trade businesses have unique needs that generic web designers simply don't understand.

When a homeowner searches for a plumber at midnight with a burst pipe, they need to find you immediately, see proof you're legitimate, and have a way to contact you NOW. Your website has about 10 seconds to communicate professionalism before they move on to the next search result.

Generic web designers build the same template for restaurants, law firms, and plumbers. But these businesses need completely different things.
