How much does a website cost for a tradesman?
For a working trade website you should expect to pay somewhere between $500 and $3,000 as a one-off, or $20–$60 a month on a builder like Wix or Squarespace if you build it yourself. Agencies charge $2,000–$8,000 and are usually overkill for a one-van business. Anything advertised under $300 is almost always a template with your logo dropped into it.

Do I need a website if I already have a Facebook page?
A Facebook page and a website do different jobs. Facebook reaches people who already follow you or who are shown your posts; a website catches the person typing "roofer near me" who has never heard of you. If most of your work already comes from repeat customers and word of mouth, a website matters less. If you want work from people who do not know you yet, a page you own is the only thing that catches them.

How to get more work as a tradesman (without paying for leads)
The highest-return work for almost every trade is, in order: claim and fill in your Google Business Profile, get reviews on it consistently, name the towns you cover on a site you own, answer the phone or ring back within the hour, and follow up quotes once. That sequence costs almost nothing and beats buying leads, which resell the same enquiry to several trades at once.
