Contractors & trades
You're on a job site, not a website. The lead goes to whoever Google finds first.
Mainfolk builds trades and home-services companies a real lead engine in about a minute: a page for every service, a page for every town you cover, a gallery of finished work, and a quote form that rings your inbox. Engineered to rank, and simple enough to update from the truck.
Free plan, free forever. Most trades are perfect on Launch at $15/mo. No credit card, no contract.
- A page per town you serve
- Leads land in your inbox
- Update it from the truck
- You own it, no lock-in
Why you're invisible
Almost every search that turns into a job has a town in it.
Nobody searches "excavating." They search excavating in Gurnee, or they ask an assistant
for a licensed electrician near them who can come out this week. A one-page site that says
"serving the greater area" matches none of that. Mainfolk builds the structure that does:
real pages for real services in real places, plus the structured data and per-site
llms.txt that let AI assistants recommend you by name.
A page per service area
Every town you cover gets its own page with genuine content about the work you do there. That is what puts you in front of the next town over, not just your own.
A page per trade
Roofing, siding, panel upgrades, septic, remodels. Each one gets a real page, because a search engine cannot rank a bullet point in a list.
Quotable by AI assistants
Licensing, insurance, service radius, and trades marked up as structured data, so when someone asks ChatGPT for a contractor nearby, there is something real to cite.
The lead path
From a search to your phone, without a leak.
A website only matters if it ends in a conversation. Every page on a Mainfolk trades site is built to finish the same way.
-
They find the right page
Not the homepage. The page about the exact job in the exact town, which is what they searched for and what the assistant recommended.
-
They believe you
Finished work in the gallery, license and insurance stated plainly, the years you have been at it, and a real address. Trust is a page element.
-
They ask for a quote
A short form right there, built for a thumb on a phone. Or a tap-to-call button, because half of them would rather just talk to you.
-
You actually get it
It hits your inbox and a copy is kept in your dashboard, so a lead never quietly dies in a spam folder or a form that broke six months ago.
Built for the trades
Everything a contractor needs, already on it.
No blank canvas, no theme shopping, no wondering what a website is supposed to have on it.
Project gallery
Before and after, the finished deck, the new roof. Add a job from your phone the day you finish it. Photos load fast and stay sharp.
Quote form that lands
Delivered to your inbox and kept in your dashboard. Build your own fields if you want the job address or a photo of the problem up front.
Tap to call
A phone number that dials with one thumb, on every page, because a good share of your customers will never fill in a form.
License & insurance, stated plainly
The trust signals a homeowner is quietly looking for before they let you in the door, presented where they can find them.
Service-area pages
Every town you cover, laid out properly, so you compete for the work next door instead of hoping somebody scrolls far enough.
You update it, in seconds
Click a block, change the words, publish. Live worldwide in under a minute. No developer to call, no invoice for changing a phone number.
The easy part is us
We build it. You approve it. Then you pay.
Tell us your trade, your towns, and your company name. That is the whole intake, about five minutes. We build the complete first draft, and nothing costs you a dollar until you have opened the real site and said yes.
- Already have a site? Our WordPress migrator moves your pages, posts, and images across, images included.
- Nothing to maintain. No plugins, no updates, no patched-at-midnight security hole taking your quote form down.
- Fast on a job-site connection. Pages open the moment someone taps, on a phone with two bars. Slow sites get abandoned before they load.

- You own it. Export your pages, images, and every lead anytime, free. The domain is yours to take.
- A real person answers. You talk to the engineers who built the platform, not a call center reading a script.

Questions
Asked and answered.
Will this actually get me leads, or is it just a brochure?
It is built as a lead path, not a brochure. Every trade you offer gets a real page, every town you serve gets a service-area page, and every one of them ends in a quote form that delivers to your inbox and keeps a copy in your dashboard, so a lead never dies in a spam folder. That structure is exactly what a search engine matches against a search like "roof repair in Gurnee."
Can I get a page for each town I serve?
Yes, and it is the single highest-value thing a contractor site can do. Almost every search that turns into a job carries a place in it. A page per service area, with real content about the work you do there, is what lets you show up for the town next door instead of only your own.
I'm terrible with computers. Can I actually run this?
If you can fill out a form, you can run the site. Click any block, change the words, hit publish. Adding a finished job to your gallery from the truck takes about a minute. There are no plugins, no themes, and no updates you have to remember. If you get stuck, the user guide walks through it with screenshots.
How is this different from the Facebook page I have now?
A Facebook page is rented ground you do not control, it does not rank for the searches that produce jobs, and it happily puts your competitors' ads next to your work. A real site on your own domain is an asset: you own it, it ranks, and it is something an AI assistant can cite when someone asks for a contractor in your area.
What does a contractor website cost?
Start free, forever, on a mainfolk.com address. Launch is $15 a month for your own domain name with no Mainfolk badge. Pro is $29 a month if you want to see which service pages and towns are actually producing inquiries. No contract, no setup fee, cancel anytime. See the full pricing page.
Can you move my existing site over?
Yes. If you are on WordPress, the keyless Mainfolk migrator brings your pages, posts, and images across, including the images that lazy-load or sit in a page builder. If you are somewhere else, tell us where and we will look at it.
