How Much Does a Roofer’s Website Cost in the UK? (2026 Guide)

If you run a roofing business, you have probably been quoted anything from a few pounds a month to several thousand pounds for a website – and it is hard to tell what you actually need. This guide breaks down what a roofer’s website typically costs in the UK in 2026, what drives the price up or down, and the ongoing costs people often forget about.

The short answer

For most roofers, a professional website costs somewhere between a few hundred pounds and around £3,000 as a one-off build, plus a small yearly amount for your domain name and hosting. Larger agencies commonly charge £2,500 to £10,000 or more, while do-it-yourself website builders cost roughly £10 to £30 a month for as long as you use them.

Where you land in that range depends on how many pages you need, whether the design is custom or template-based, and how much help you want with content, photos and getting found on Google. (If you work in another trade, see our general guide: How Much Does a Website Cost for a UK Tradesperson?)

Your main options, and what they typically cost

1. Build it yourself (Wix, Squarespace and similar)

Typical cost: around £10–£30 a month, or roughly £120–£360 a year including a domain.

This is the cheapest way to get online, but you do all the work yourself – writing, design, photos and search engine setup – and the monthly fee never stops. For a busy roofer, the real cost is often the evenings spent building it, and a DIY site rarely looks as professional or ranks as well as one built by someone who does it every day.

2. Monthly subscription websites

Typical cost: roughly £49–£100 a month.

Some companies build your site for little or nothing upfront, then charge a monthly fee. It spreads the cost, but over two or three years it can add up to more than a one-off build – and with some providers, the website is not yours if you stop paying. Always check who owns the site and the domain before you sign.

3. Freelancers and small web design studios

Typical cost: from around £300 for a simple one-page site, up to about £3,000 for a larger custom website.

This is where most small trade businesses end up. You get a professionally built site designed around your roofing services, usually as a one-off cost, and you only pay for hosting and your domain after that. Look for someone who understands trades and local search, not just general web design.

4. Web design agencies

Typical cost: £2,500–£10,000+.

Agencies bring a full team – designers, developers, copywriters and marketers – and suit larger roofing firms with several branches, big service ranges or ambitious marketing plans. For a sole trader or small team, it is usually more than you need.

What affects the price of a roofing website?

• Number of pages – a single page covering everything costs less than separate pages for roof repairs, new roofs, flat roofing, guttering, chimney work and each area you cover.
• Custom design or template – a design built around your brand costs more than adapting an existing template.
• Written content – if the designer writes your service descriptions and page text, expect to pay more than if you supply it.
• Photos of your work – real photos of your roofs build far more trust than stock images, and professional photography adds to the cost.
• Local SEO setup – setting the site up properly for searches like “roofer near me” or “roof repairs in [your town]” takes extra work, but it is what brings in new enquiries.
• Extra features – online booking, payments or an online shop all add to the build.

The ongoing costs to budget for

Whichever route you choose, a website has a few running costs:

• Domain name: a .co.uk domain usually costs around £8–£15 a year once any introductory offer ends. Plan around the renewal price, not the first-year deal.
• Hosting: basic hosting for a small business site typically runs from about £50 to £150 a year.
• SSL certificate: the padlock that shows your site is secure. It is often included free with good hosting.
• Business email: an address like info@yourroofing.co.uk looks far more professional than a Gmail or Hotmail address, and usually costs a few pounds a month.
• Updates and support: optional, but useful if you do not want to make changes yourself. Paid care plans vary widely depending on what is included.

What every roofer’s website should include

Whatever you spend, make sure your website does these things well – they are what turn visitors into phone calls:

• A clear headline saying what you do and where, such as “Roofing contractor in Leeds”.
• A click-to-call phone number that is easy to find on a mobile phone, since most homeowners with a leak will be searching on their phone.
• Emergency or same-day repair details, if you offer them.
• Real photos of your roofing work, ideally with before-and-after shots.
• Customer reviews, and any trade accreditations or guarantees you hold.
• The towns and areas you cover, so Google shows you to people nearby.
• A simple quote request form that sends enquiries straight to your email.

Is a website worth it for a roofer?

Even if most of your work comes from word of mouth, customers almost always look you up online before they call. A professional website gives them somewhere to see your work, read your reviews and get in touch – and it helps new customers find you on Google. Because a single roofing job can be worth hundreds or thousands of pounds, one or two extra jobs from your website can cover its cost.
