General contractor
Ironhill Construction
Plans on the table and a condensed, confident headline, for the builder whose work speaks for itself.
Done by AI · not an agency
Contractor website design by AI, for builders and remodelers.
Brief Zarla the way you'd brief a web designer. Its AI designs your site in about 30 seconds, with call buttons and a quote form, then adds pages for the work and towns you list, up to your plan's page limit. No discovery phase, no 4-month build.
Your brief: add your town

Sample designs
Looks like a $5,000 agency website. Judge for yourself.
Six Zarla designs, shown for made-up construction companies, from bathroom remodels to commercial builds. Start from one and the AI rewrites it around yours, or let your brief decide.
Remodeling
Marlstone Bath Co.
A quote form that asks the budget, beside a finished bathroom, so the requests that arrive are the ones worth pricing.
Custom homes
Halcombe Homes
Dark, quiet and serif, with "pay the number you signed" in the headline and open-book pricing in the top strip, for the builder selling trust on a big contract.
Additions
Quarrymill Home Additions
A house at dusk and a site-visit button, because an addition starts with someone walking the lot.
Commercial
Wexmoor Construction Group
Written for owners and developers, with the numbers a commercial client checks before they call.
Decks & outdoor
Halburn Decks
A grid of finished decks beside the headline, because outdoor customers buy what they can see.
The checklist
What every contractor website needs
Six things a contractor's website needs to win the right jobs, each shown on one of Zarla's designs.
- 01
A quote form that asks about the project
The type of job and a rough budget turn a vague request into one you can price, and filter out the tire-kickers.
- 02
Your license number where customers look
Homeowners and GCs check your license before they call. Put the number and your insurance in the strip above the header.
- 03
How you price, said plainly
Big projects run on trust. Saying how you price (fixed bids, open books, published allowances) answers the question every client is afraid to ask.
- 04
Photos of finished projects
Nobody hires a builder from a paragraph. A few photos of finished work do more than any description of quality.
- 05
Your trade and your town in the headline
"Kansas City Concrete Contractor" is the search and the answer in one line.
- 06
A bid request for builders and GCs
Subcontract work comes from general contractors, not homeowners. Give them a bid request of their own.
Process and turnaround
How it works, and how long each step takes
For comparison, from the price pages of web agencies that build contractor sites: "Live in 2 weeks" at one subscription studio, and "4 months from kickoff to launch" for a custom build at a remodeling marketing agency.
- About a minute
1. The brief
Finish one sentence about your company: the work you do and where.
- About 30 seconds
2. First design
Zarla's AI designs your home page with call buttons and a quote form, then adds pages for the work you do (remodels, additions, new builds) and the towns you cover, up to your plan's page limit.
- As long as you like
3. Change it
Click any section to swap in photos of your own projects. Or type it: "add a page for kitchen remodels."
- The same day
4. Launch
Publish on a Premium or Business plan and connect your domain.
What's included
What you get from your first brief
- The design. Layout, colors, fonts and photos picked for a construction company.
- The words. Headlines, service descriptions and FAQs written from your brief. Edit any of it.
- Service and area pages. Pages for the work you do (remodels, additions, new builds, concrete) and the towns you cover.
- Quote request form. Your client describes the project and it lands in your leads inbox, with an email alert. Customers can attach up to five photos of the job to the form, so you can often price it from the photos instead of a site visit. The form doesn't work out a price for you — you read the request and quote it yourself.
- Tap-to-call buttons. On every page, for the client who'd rather talk the job through.
- Google groundwork. Titles, descriptions, business markup and a sitemap on every page, and fast pages on phones.
- Your Google reviews and listing. Connect your Business Profile and your rating, reviews and map show on the site.
- Hosting on Google Cloud, with SSL. Nothing to set up.Premium
- Your own domain. Connect the one you have or buy one inside Zarla.Premium
Revisions
No revision rounds. No hourly rate.
One remodeling marketing agency includes one round of revisions in a $15,000 build, and more rounds cost extra. With Zarla you make the changes yourself, whenever you want.
Click to edit
Change any section's words, photos, colors or order yourself. As often as you like, on every plan. No AI involved.
Or type the change
Type what you want and the AI makes the change. Typed changes use AI credits: a starter allowance on Free, a monthly allowance on Premium and Business, with a daily limit.
Change the whole design
Move to a different design any time and keep your words, photos and pages. Layout, colors and fonts change; your content isn't rewritten.

The honest part
What an agency does that Zarla doesn't
Zarla does the design part of an agency's job with AI. Here's what you'd still be paying people for.
- A strategy call about your market and your competitors
- Original photos of your team, vans and jobs. Zarla uses your photos or stock.
- Copy written from interviewing you. Zarla writes from your brief, and you edit it.
- Monthly SEO campaigns, link building and ranking reports
- Running your Google Ads and Local Services Ads
- One named person accountable, on the phone
- Custom features beyond Zarla's sections

Browse Zarla partners →Questions construction businesses ask
Is Zarla a web design agency?
No. Zarla is AI. It does the design part of an agency's job, the layout, words, pages and forms, from a one-sentence brief. There's no designer on the other end. If you want a person for marketing or SEO, Zarla partners are independent agencies and freelancers who work on Zarla sites.
How much does contractor website design cost?
Web designers who publish prices for contractor sites charge from $97 a month with no setup fee, or $1,299 to $4,899 up front plus $49 to $69 a month on a 12-month plan. Custom builds at a remodeling marketing agency run $15,000 to $45,000, and website-plus-advertising programs $997 to $6,997 a month plus ad spend. Designing and previewing on Zarla is free; you choose a Premium or Business plan when you publish.
What should a construction company website have?
A home page with your number and a quote form in the first screen, your license and insurance where clients can see them, a page for each kind of work, a page for each town you cover, and photos of finished projects. Zarla adds service and area pages from your brief, up to your plan's page limit. Customers can attach up to five photos of the job to the form, so you can often price it from the photos instead of a site visit. The form doesn't work out a price for you — you read the request and quote it yourself.
How long does a contractor website take?
Agencies that publish timelines quote from 2 weeks for a subscription site to 4 months for a custom build. Zarla's first design takes about 30 seconds; after your changes, you can publish the same day on a paid plan.
How do I show my past projects?
Upload your own project photos to the media library and swap them in for the stock images, and add recent jobs with photos and a short description from the dashboard so they appear on your site.
Does Zarla do SEO for contractors?
Zarla does the groundwork Google reads: titles, descriptions, business markup, a sitemap and fast pages on phones, and you choose the search each page targets. It doesn't run monthly SEO campaigns or build links; that's agency work. Our guide to SEO for contractors covers the rest.
I already have a contractor website. Can I move it?
Yes. Zarla keeps your old page addresses where it can and redirects the ones that change, helping you keep the Google standing you've built.
Before you spend $5,000 on a website and SEO agency, give Zarla 30 seconds.
Finish the sentence with your town. Zarla's AI designs your site from it.
