Websites for decorators that let the finish do the selling
Built around how people hire a decorator: they want to see the standard of your work, trust you in their home and get a price without a long wait.
What decorators actually need from a website
Not a template: a site built around finished work, trust and local search.
A gallery of finished rooms
Clear photos of interiors and exteriors lead the page, and you can add new jobs yourself after each one.
Quote requests with photos
Customers upload photos of the room or the exterior and describe the job, so you can price with a clearer picture.
Trust and insurance up front
Insurance, accreditations and years trading, shown clearly for customers letting someone into their home.
‘Decorator near me’ visibility
Google Business Profile setup and a page for each area you cover, so you show up where you actually work.
Service pages for each job
Separate pages for interior painting, exterior painting, wallpapering and commercial work, so each search lands on the right answer.
Easy to reach
A click-to-call button on every page and a clear contact route, for the customer ready to talk today.
Platform costs at a glance
Fixed build price, an optional monthly care plan, and hosting handled for you, whichever platform you pick.

Common questions from decorators
Which platform should I pick for my decorating business?
If you're just starting out, Wix gets you live fastest at the lowest cost. Established decorators that want to rank locally over time usually do best on WordPress. If you want a distinctive brand, Webflow. For larger firms needing scheduling or quoting tools, Custom Development.
How fast can my site go live?
Wix builds typically launch in one to two weeks, Webflow in two to three weeks, and WordPress in two to four weeks. Custom Development typically takes four to eight weeks, and we'll give you a clear timeline with your quote.
Will my site actually rank for ‘decorator near me’?
Every build includes Google Business Profile setup, local listing structure and on-page SEO fundamentals. Ranking also depends on reviews and ongoing content, our Local SEO service and Care plans help with that over time.
Can I add my own project photos?
Yes. The gallery is simple to update yourself, so you can add a finished room from your phone without calling anyone.
Can customers send photos with their quote request?
Yes. The quote form can take photos and a short description, so you can give a more realistic price before you visit.
Can I show my insurance and accreditations?
Yes, we build a trust section into every decorator site for your insurance, accreditations and years trading, so customers see it before they call.
What if I outgrow my platform later?
Many decorators start on Wix or WordPress and move to a custom build as the business grows. We can migrate your content and SEO history when the time comes.
