A website for your trade. Three weeks. $4,500.
Five sites so far: a general contractor in Etna, a landscaper in Jackson, a plumber, a retail brand, and this one. Every price is on this page, because that is how we would want to shop for one.
“Why the hell would I want a print shop building my website?”
We can hear you from here.
Fair question and it deserves a real answer. Printing is the output. It has never been the job. Twenty years of design, photography and video came first and the press showed up after.
Three jobs that never touched a press
None of that is the reason to hire us. It is the reason you can stop bracing for a template with a stock photo of a handshake on it. You would not be the biggest job we have taken. You are the one we actually want.
We are a design shop with a press in it.
Not a print shop that bought a website builder. The order matters. It is also why we shoot your job photos ourselves, and bad photography kills a trades website before the words get a chance.
Your website will match your truck.
An agency can build you a good looking site that looks nothing like your door lettering, your yard signs or your crew's shirts, because they have never seen any of it. We make those. One set of hands on all of it is what makes a five person outfit read like a real company.
You already paid for the discovery.
A design firm spends the first two weeks of your project learning what you do, and you are paying for those two weeks. We already have your logo files, we know your busy season, and we know what your customers walk in here asking for.
You can walk in and complain.
An agency is an email address and a calendar link. We are a shop on a street with a door on it, and your website problem gets handled while you are in here picking up hoodies.
Their next dollar is somebody else's build. Ours is your spring shirt order. It costs us more to ignore your website than to go fix it.
These are ours. Yours would be too.
Not stock. Not what somebody shot on a phone off the tailgate. A trades website lives or dies on whether the work in the pictures looks like work a competent outfit did, and that is a camera problem before it is a website problem.
Fabrication floors, crews, field work. Shot for outfits that needed to look like they could handle the job, because that is what the photograph is actually for. Half a day of this is included in Trade Site Plus, and it is the single thing that most changes how a trades business reads online.
And the software your business already runs on.
ServiceTitan and that class of system are familiar ground. If your office runs on field service software, your website is supposed to talk to it: the booking form, the dispatch board, the customer record, the review request that goes out after the job closes. That is part of the conversation, not a reason to send you somewhere else.
What is not us: a custom software product, a mobile app, or an enterprise site running to hundreds of pages. We will tell you that on the first call rather than three weeks into a build, and point you at somebody who can do it right instead of taking a deposit for a job we would be learning on.
Five sites. Four trades. Links to all of them.
Not a logo grid. Every one of these is live right now, and you can click it and read it yourself. Where a site is ours, or belongs to a shop we also print for, it says so.
swissmountainbuilders.com
No logo, no website, no photography when we started. It launched with an identity, a scroll-driven video hero, thirty graded job photos, a dated build sequence that proves the work is real, and a page that publishes planning ranges for the jobs he takes. Nobody else in that valley publishes a number.

A full audit found two plugins with published vulnerabilities and a version of PHP that stopped getting security patches in 2022. We shut the holes, moved the server to PHP 8.2, redirected every dead page from the old site so the search traffic survived, rewrote the service pages, set all thirteen page titles, and connected Analytics and Search Console. Then we redesigned the front of it.

Charlie's is what the recurring side looks like. Three posts a week timed to when Jackson is actually online, written around house maintenance, the weather and what is happening in town, each one pointing back at a page that can book the job. This is the work that keeps paying after a site goes live.

settlersgoods.com
Built top to bottom on Shopify around a family photo archive that starts in the late 1890s. Every hat carries a real dated photograph, so the whole store had to be organised around proving that rather than claiming it. Products, checkout, shipping and the story pages. We print the hats too, and we would rather tell you that here.

theprintshopjh.com
Around 4,700 garment options priced against the supplier's own numbers, an instant estimator that quotes a job before you talk to anyone, a proposal flow where approving and paying are the same click, and a production timeline page that publishes the one turnaround window we run. We did not hire this out.
Try the estimator →So you do not have to work it out yourself: two of the five are close to home. theprintshopjh.com is ours. Settler's Goods is a client whose hats we also print. The other three are outside work for people who pay us for it. We would rather say that here than have you find it later.
The parts that decide whether the phone rings.
A website that looks fine and never gets found is an expensive business card. Every Trade Site ships with the same plumbing underneath, whether you ever notice it or not.
Your prices, published
Ranges, not commitments. It is the fastest way to stop bidding against people who were never going to hire you, and almost nobody in this valley does it.
Google can read every photo
Real image tags with real alt text, not background images. Four sizes generated per photo and WebP written automatically, so a page loads on a phone with one bar.
Schema with your numbers in it
Search engines get a machine readable version of your services, your service area and your price ranges. Written by hand, not bolted on by a plugin.
You can edit it yourself
Phone, address, hours, notification email, the photo on every page. All of it changeable from one settings screen, without calling us and without touching code.
Google Business Profile
For a contractor the map pack usually out-earns the entire website. We check yours, or create it, as part of the build. It is not an upsell.
Enquiries that arrive
A contact form with server side handling and spam trapping, pointed at a mailbox we have confirmed exists. That last part is not a joke. It is the most common way this goes wrong.
Here are ours.
We built a site that argues a contractor should publish what he charges. It would be a strange thing to argue and then hide our own.
| Package | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Trade Site | $4,500 | Seven pages, your photos, your prices, schema, Google Business Profile, launch. Three weeks. |
| Trade Site Plus | $7,500 | Everything above, plus a custom homepage built around your business, half a day of photography at your jobs, and copy written from a conversation instead of a form. |
| Shopify Build | $8,500 to $14,000 | Products, checkout, shipping, the full Settler's Goods scope. The range is real. Catalog size is what moves it. |
| Rescue | $3,500 to $5,000 | You already have a site and it is not working. Security, speed, search, and a redesign in place. The Valley Landscape job. |
| Plan | Monthly | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Care | $250 | Hosting watched, updates applied, backups running, uptime monitored, small edits done. |
| Care and Search | $750 | All of Care, plus your Google Business Profile managed, review requests going out, a piece of content a month, and a Search Console report you can actually read. |
| Full marketing | $1,200 | All of the above, plus social. Three posts a week, written and scheduled. The Charlie's Plumbing scope. |
Half up front, half at launch. No monthly plan is required to buy a build, and none of them lock you into a year.
Dates you can hold us to.
The clock starts the day everything on the next list is in our hands. Not the day you say yes.
Information
One sixty minute conversation. We collect photos, agree the prices you are willing to publish, and get access to your domain and hosting. No design happens this week, on purpose.
Build
Theme installed and rebranded to you. Photos processed and loaded, copy written, prices entered, schema populated, forms wired to a mailbox we have tested.
Launch
You review it on a private link. One round of changes. Then we cut the domain over, submit the sitemap to Google, and check or create your Business Profile.
Two things we deliberately keep outside the three weeks: setting up email on your domain, and creating a Google Business Profile from scratch. Both wait on Google and on you, and we are not going to promise a date we do not control. We do them. They just do not go on the clock.
Eight things, and the build never stalls.
Every item on this list has personally delayed a real job. Have them ready and three weeks means three weeks.
- Your price rangesOr a decision in writing not to publish any.
- Your callback promiseHow fast you get back to people, in your own words.
- Photos of finished jobsAnd the town each one is in.
- Logo filesOr the go-ahead for us to make one.
- Domain loginOr the ability to change DNS.
- Current hostingIf the site is hosted anywhere today.
- A mailbox for enquiriesAnd whether it exists yet. It usually does not.
- Google Business ProfileDoes it exist, and who owns it.
Number eight is the one that matters most. For a contractor in Star Valley the map pack will out-earn everything on the website put together, because Google ranks it partly by how close you are to the person searching. We treat it as part of the build.
We already print your shirts.
Tell us what your business does and what you want the site to get you. If a Trade Site is not the right call we will say so, and we will not invoice you for finding that out.
