Website development for electricians
An electrician's website carries a credibility problem most trades do not: the work is invisible and potentially lethal, so the buyer cannot judge it and is right to be cautious. What they can judge is certification (NICEIC or NAPIT registration, 18th Edition currency, Part P competence) and whether the electrician presents like someone who will still answer the phone in six months. A site that leads with credentials the buyer can check wins that cautious customer. A site that leads with a stock photo of a light bulb wins nobody.
The work mix matters too. Emergency call-outs behave like plumbing: speed and a tappable number win. But the durable money in electrical work is certification-driven: EICRs for landlords who legally need one every five years, consumer unit upgrades, EV chargepoints, rewires. Those buyers research, compare and shortlist. The site below does both: a call button for urgent searches, and clear service pages, especially for EICRs, that turn a legal duty thousands of landlords must meet into regular bookings.
- From £395
- Typically 2–3 weeks
- Fixed quote before work starts
What customers want
This is what an electrician website needs to do.
People visit a electrician website to get something done. If your site makes that quick, you get the enquiry. These are the tasks every page is designed around.
- 01“Get an emergency electrician for a dead circuit or burning smell, now”
- 02“Book an EICR for my rental property and know what it costs”
- 03“Verify NICEIC or NAPIT registration before letting anyone near my fuseboard”
- 04“Get a quote for an EV charger, consumer unit or rewire without a hard sell”
- 05“Check the electrician covers my area and does my kind of job (domestic or commercial)”
- 06“Receive the certificate and paperwork properly, for insurance and compliance”
Features
Every feature is chosen for how electricians win work.
EICR booking page
A dedicated page explaining what an Electrical Installation Condition Report covers, who legally needs one, and per-property pricing, ending in a booking form capturing address, property size and fuseboard photos. Landlords must have one every five years; this page turns that legal duty into bookings.
NICEIC / NAPIT registration display
Your competent-person scheme registration displayed with its number and a link to verify it, on every page that touches certification. For EICR, rewires and notifiable work it is the deciding trust signal, and verification is one tap away rather than a footer logo.
Certificate requests
A structured form for the paperwork clients actually chase: EICRs, Minor Works certificates, Building Control notifications, landlord packs. Each request arrives with the property and visit details attached, ending the 'can you resend my certificate' phone calls.
Separate domestic and commercial pages
Separate sections for two kinds of customer: homeowners who want consumer units, EV chargers and fault-finding, and facilities managers and letting agents who want testing contracts, emergency lighting and three-phase work. They never share a page, because they are buying different things.
EV chargepoint pages
Dedicated content for home and workplace chargepoint installation: charger brands you fit, what the install involves, realistic costs and grant eligibility where it applies. EV queries are high-value and growing, and they are won by whoever explains the process most clearly.
Emergency call-out button
A call button showing your hours, response time and call-out charge, which stays on screen on a phone. Total power loss, burning smells and exposed wiring are not jobs for a quote form: the phone call is what matters.

Why electricians come to WebCheap
instead of a website builder.
What electrician websites look like today
Electrical work online is split between directory lead-selling (Checkatrade and MyBuilder charging for shared leads) and franchise van networks with templated local pages. Independent electricians mostly run a Facebook page and word of mouth, which concedes the entire certification market: the EICRs every landlord must commission, the EV installs every driveway will eventually want. An independent with verifiable credentials, published EICR pricing and real job evidence takes that market from both, because neither a directory listing nor a franchise template can show your name, your registration and your work.
How customers find you on Google
People search for an electrician in three ways. Emergency searches like 'electrician near me' show Google's map results first, ranked on reviews, and your site wins the call with its call button. Compliance searches like 'EICR [town]' or 'landlord electrical certificate [town]' can be won with one accurate page and published prices, and this is the biggest single opportunity in the trade. Upgrade searches like 'EV charger installation [town]', 'consumer unit upgrade [town]' or 'rewire cost [town]' come from people doing research, and are won by clear explanations and price ranges. Area pages cover the towns beyond your own.
Rules and regulations we cover
Notifiable electrical work in England and Wales sits under Part P of the Building Regulations, and competent-person scheme registration (NICEIC, NAPIT, ELECSA) is displayed with verification. BS 7671 18th Edition currency is stated, EICR content reflects the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector Regulations 2020 accurately (five-yearly reports for rented homes) and EV grant eligibility is described only as it currently stands, never promised.

Questions
Here are answers to what electricians ask before starting.
Because it is a legal requirement with a deadline, not a preference. Every rented home in England needs a satisfactory EICR at least every five years, landlords know they must buy it from someone, and they search for it by name. A page that explains the obligation accurately, prices it per property and books it in one form brings the same customers back again and again.
Yes. Published brackets by bedrooms or consumer-unit count, with the booking form capturing photos of the fuseboard so you can confirm before attending. Landlords compare on price and turnaround; both are stated before they enquire.
Scheme logo, registration number and a link to your entry on the public register, placed on every certification-related page. The point is that visitors can check you in one tap rather than trusting a badge.
Yes. The form captures the consumer unit location, the parking setup, photos of both and the charger they are considering, so you can quote most installs without a survey visit. Anything that genuinely needs a site visit, you book already knowing the job.
In the commercial journey: fixed-wire testing schedules, emergency lighting, PAT and remedial work presented for facilities managers and agents, with contract enquiry rather than a homeowner quote form. The two audiences never see each other's pricing logic.
The emergency block states your real availability. If you do not take 3am calls, the site says so and shows the hours you do cover. Being clear about your hours protects your reviews, and an unanswered '24/7' line is worse than none.
Two to three weeks. One structured session collects services, areas, scheme numbers, pricing brackets and job photos. EICR and EV content is drafted for you and checked for accuracy in week two, because anything about certification has to be accurate.
