Websites for carpenters and joiners that justify a bespoke price
Bespoke joinery competes with flat-pack, and the comparison is only unfair if nobody can see the difference. Your website is where the difference gets shown — grain, joints, fit — before the price is mentioned.

Why it matters
What costs carpenters and joiners work online
You are being compared with a flat-pack price
A customer pricing fitted wardrobes has a number in their head from a showroom. Without seeing what made-to-measure actually looks like in a real house, your quote is just a bigger number.
“Carpenter” covers five different businesses
Fitted furniture, staircases, second fix on new builds, kitchen fitting and general repairs are different customers entirely. A site that lists all five equally tells each of them you are not quite the specialist they want.
Bespoke work has no price anchor
Customers cannot guess what a staircase costs, so many never ask. Giving an honest indication of range on the page removes the fear that stops the enquiry.

What a carpenter’s website needs
A portfolio organised by what people search for
Fitted wardrobes, staircases, alcove units, kitchens — each with its own page and its own photographs, rather than one gallery of everything you have ever made.
Detail shots that show the joinery
The close-up of a joint, a soft-close drawer, a scribed edge against an uneven wall. These are what separate you from a flat-pack fitter, and they belong on the page at a size people can see.
An honest price range with what drives it
A range, and the three things that move it — size, timber, finish. Customers who were too embarrassed to ask now know whether to.
The process, in four or five steps
Measure, design, make, fit. Bespoke work is a commitment, and showing how it goes removes most of the reason people hesitate.
Simple pricing, no setup fee
Plans from £49 a month plus VAT — build, hosting, SSL, backups and content updates all included. See the rebuilt homepage before you pay a penny.
Straight answers
Questions from carpenters and joiners
I do everything from decking to fitted kitchens. How should the site handle that?
By leading with the two or three you most want more of, each with its own page, and covering the rest honestly further down. A site that presents five specialities equally reads as a generalist to every one of those customers.
Should I show prices for bespoke work?
A range rather than a figure, with the factors that move it. Most customers have no idea whether a fitted wardrobe is £800 or £8,000, and that uncertainty stops more enquiries than a high price does.
How many photos do I need?
Fifteen to twenty good ones beat sixty average ones. What matters is that each main service has several, including at least one close-up of the detail that a flat-pack version would not have.
How much does a website for a carpenter cost?
Plans start at £49 a month plus VAT with no setup fee — that includes the build, tailored desktop and mobile design, hosting, SSL, backups and ongoing content updates. Before you pay anything, we rebuild your homepage free so you can judge the work first.
