How much does an electrician website cost? (2026 pricing guide)
Electrical website cost at a glance
A professional electrical contracting business website typically costs $1,500–$5,000 as a one-time build, or $249–$2,800/mo on an agency subscription plan. Our flat-rate tiers run $1,490–$3,490 one-time, and you own the site outright.
Where you land inside a range depends on page count, cities covered, and whether you serve commercial as well as residential — the factors below. It should never depend on how good the salesperson on the call is.
| Tier | Pages | Price | Timeline | Ownership |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | One page | $1,490 one-time | 3 days | Yours outright |
| Growth | 5–8 pages | $2,490 one-time | 7 days | Yours outright |
| Pro | Multi-city | $3,490 one-time | 7–10 days | Yours outright |
| Typical subscription agency | varies | $249–$2,800/mo, forever | 2–6 weeks | Rented — stop paying, site's gone |
50% to start, 50% at handoff. Optional care plan $99–149/mo. Full tiers on the pricing page.
What actually drives the price of an electrical contracting business website
Seven things genuinely move the price of an electrician site. The rest of a long quote is usually padding.
1. City and service-area pages
The single biggest multiplier. One town means a couple of pages; competing across a county means a page per city — that is what moves you from Growth to Pro.
2. Page count per service
Panel upgrades, EV chargers, generators, rewiring, lighting — each service that gets its own page adds copy and layout work, and each one is a keyword that brings its own jobs.
3. Commercial coverage
Serving GCs and property managers means extra pages with a different pitch: capabilities, license classes, insurance limits, past project types. Residential-only builds are simpler and cheaper.
4. Project photos and proof
A before/after of a rat's-nest panel turned into labeled, inspected work sells rewiring better than any paragraph — but photos need sorting, compressing, and captioning by service and city.
5. Review integration
Pulling live Google reviews beats pasted quotes, and takes wiring. Static snippets are cheaper; live proof converts better.
6. Lead and call plumbing
Forms that ping your phone in seconds, call tracking, and a hookup to your field-service software are the difference between a brochure and a booked calendar.
7. Copy written from scratch
Template text with "electrician" pasted in reads exactly like what it is. Real copy about your services, your permits-and-inspection process, and your area costs writing time, and that's the copy both Google and a wary homeowner take seriously.
One-time build vs. monthly subscription
Sellers of electrician websites love subscriptions, because you keep paying and they keep the keys. Multiply any monthly quote by 36 before you sign — the comparison below does that math in the open.
| One-time build (us) | Subscription agency | |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront | $2,490 (Growth, 5–8 pages) | $0–500 "setup" |
| Monthly | $149/mo care plan — optional | $249–$2,800/mo, required |
| 3-year total | $7,854 with care included | $8,964+ at the cheapest tier |
| After 3 years | You own a site and a domain with history | You own nothing |
The 3-year math uses our Growth tier plus the $149/mo care plan against the cheapest common subscription — most run far higher. Nobody selling monthly plans shows you this table.
Your four real options, priced honestly
| Route | Cost | Your time | The catch |
|---|---|---|---|
| DIY builder (Wix, Squarespace) | $16–49/mo + your evenings | 30–60 hours | Your nights after service calls, template speed scores, and the schema and city pages still not built |
| Freelancer | $500–$3,000 | Weeks of back-and-forth | Quality lottery; support ends when they get busy |
| Full-service agency | $3,000–$10,000+ | 1–3 months | Built for bigger budgets; electricians are the small account |
| Trade-focused studio (us) | $1,490–$3,490 flat | A 20-minute call | One round of revisions, done properly — not endless tweaking |
Ongoing costs, and who owns what
After a one-time build, the running costs are small and boring: domain renewal in your name, static hosting that costs next to nothing, SSL included. The care plan is the only recurring line, and it is optional.
- Domain: $12–20/yr, registered to you — not to us
- Hosting: covered by the care plan, or free-tier static hosting you control
- Care plan $99–149/mo: optional — hosting, backups, monitoring, small edits
- The site itself: paid once, owned forever — code and analytics included
Red flags in an electrical website design quote
- A monthly plan where you never own the site — ask "what happens when I stop paying?" and listen for the pause
- No performance number in writing. "Fast" is a word; a Lighthouse score is a promise
- The domain registered to the agency, not to you — that is a leash, not a service
- "SEO included" with nothing itemized — titles, schema, sitemap, city pages, or it is a word, not work
- No price anywhere until you book a call — if the number were good, it would be on the page
How long it takes, and how payment works
A Starter one-pager is live in 3 days; a Growth site in 7 days; Pro multi-city builds run 7–10 days depending on how many cities we are writing for.
Payment is 50% to start, 50% at handoff — you never pay 100% for a site you haven't seen working on your own phone.

How much does an electrical contractor website cost?
A professional electrician website runs $1,500–$5,000 as a one-time build from a specialized studio, while agency subscriptions run $249–$2,800/mo. Our flat tiers: $1,490 one page, $2,490 full site, $3,490 multi-city.
Is a one-time build or a monthly subscription better for electricians?
One-time, in almost every case. Over three years a one-time build plus an optional care plan costs less than the cheapest common subscription — and you end the three years owning the site instead of renting it.
Do I own my electrician website?
With us, yes: domain, code, and analytics are registered to you from day one. With subscription agencies, usually no — ask that question before you sign anything, and get the answer in writing.
How long does an electrician website take to build?
One page in 3 days, a full 5–8 pages site in 7 days, multi-city builds in 7–10 days. Long timelines on agency quotes are queue time, not work time.
What does the care plan cover, and do I need it?
The $99–149/mo care plan covers hosting, backups, monitoring, and small edits. It is genuinely optional — the site is a static Astro build and keeps running without us.
