HVAC The problem
When someone needs a plumber now — or is planning a remodel — they Google you on their phone and size you up in seconds. Here’s where contractors leak those jobs:
No obvious way to call. The number isn’t tappable or isn’t up top, so the homeowner taps the competitor who made it one tap.
Slow on mobile. They’re standing in the driveway; a slow page loses them before it loads.
No proof of work. No before/after photos, no reviews, no license/insured badge — so a stranger won’t let you into their home.
Unclear service area + dated. They can’t tell if you even cover their town, and the site looks abandoned.
Proof
Our own HVAC demonstration build, redesigned the way we’d redesign yours. Same company, same content — the first version next to the rebuild that replaced it.
Before
The first build — flat, illustration hero.
After
The rebuild — photographic, conversion-led.
It’s the real, working site — click around it on your phone.
A demonstration build, labeled as such — client before/afters with measured numbers land here as sites launch. This is exactly what I’d do for your company.
What you get
Built in 3–4 weeks. Flat $3,500. One round of revisions included.
How it works
01
I record a short walkthrough of your current site showing exactly what’s costing you calls and jobs — yours to keep, no obligation.
02
You give ~30 minutes of input (logo, services, a few job photos). I handle everything else and show you a draft.
03
Launch day, everything’s in your name. An optional care plan keeps it fast, secure, and seasonally ready.
Why Websitewright
The big web companies rent contractors a website and lock them into a 12-month contract. Leave, and you lose the site. I build you a site you own outright and can take anywhere. It’s also fast, built only for trades, and run by one person who actually answers — not a support queue.
The guarantee
Domain, code, content, hosting, and CMS are in your accounts from day one. Leave whenever you want and take it all. No lock-in.
Nothing launches until you’ve seen it and signed off, and one round of revisions is included to get it right.
90+ mobile PageSpeed, measured, with the before/after to show you.
Start to finish. No account managers, no support queue.

The studio
I’m Josh. I started Websitewright to help blue-collar companies win online — trades do great work and still lose jobs to a website that’s slow, dated, or missing. I keep it to one person on purpose: you work with the person building your site, start to finish, and you own everything when it’s done.

Yes — domain, code, and content are in your accounts. No lock-in; leave any time with everything.
About 30 minutes. Your logo, your services, your service area, a few real job photos, and your Google reviews link. I write the copy and handle the rest.
Yes. I rebuild on a fast, modern foundation and move your domain into your own account. You keep the domain. I make it faster.
No. I handle everything technical. After launch, changing your hours or a service is as easy as editing a document, or I do it for you on the care plan.
Fair question. Two things protect you. First, you own everything — domain, code, content, and hosting are in your own accounts, fully documented, so any developer can pick it up. You’re never locked to me. Second, the optional care plan keeps the site backed up and maintained. You’re buying an asset you control, not a dependency on one person.
That’s exactly why it matters: a referral Googles you and checks your site and reviews before they call. A weak site loses warm leads you already earned.
Great starting point — but if it’s not getting calls or loading fast on a phone, that’s lost jobs, not a design opinion. Happy to show you in the free teardown.
Optional. It keeps the site fast, secure, backed up, and seasonally ready, with small edits handled for you. You own the site whether or not you keep it.
Cancel any time with 30 days’ notice. You still own the site, the domain, and everything else. The care plan keeps it healthy; it doesn’t hold it hostage.
No honest person guarantees that. The optional Get Found plan does the real work — reviews, Google Business Profile, local SEO/LSA — and reports what it’s actually doing.
