Ofte stilte spørsmål
Spring fills up fast — does having a website actually help you get ahead of that rush?
Most homeowners start thinking about exterior painting jobs and balcony work in late winter, and they search online before they pick up the phone. A website means they find you and make contact while you still have space in your diary, rather than calling when your schedule is already full. Being easy to find in February is often what determines how busy you are in May.
When someone searches for a painter in their area, what are they actually looking at before they call?
They are usually looking for photos of finished rooms and facades, because painting is a visual trade and they want to see whether your work is clean and consistent. A website gives you a permanent place to show interior jobs, wallpapering, and exterior work in a way that a social media post does not, since those disappear down a feed within days. Customers who can already see your standard of finish are much more likely to call with a serious enquiry.
A lot of decorating work comes through word of mouth — is a website still worth the bother?
A referral gets you the phone call, but most people still look you up online before they commit, even when a friend has recommended you. If they search your name and find nothing, some of them will quietly move on to someone with a presence they can check. A website means the referral actually converts rather than stalling at that step.
What are homeowners usually nervous about before they let a painter into their home?
The main concern is almost always disruption and mess — whether furniture will be properly covered, whether smells will linger, whether the job will drag on longer than agreed. A website where you can explain how you prepare a room, protect floors and fittings, and leave the space clean gives people something to read before they call, so the first conversation is already warmer. Customers who feel informed before they make contact tend to be easier to work with throughout the job.
How does wallpapering work fit into what you show online, compared with straightforward painting jobs?
Wallpapering is a skill that not every decorator takes on, and customers who specifically need it are actively searching for someone who does. Showing it clearly on a website — with photos of pattern-matched joins, alcoves, and feature walls — attracts that enquiry directly rather than relying on someone asking over the phone whether you offer it. It also separates you from painters who only work with emulsion and gloss.
Does the type of customer looking for a painter affect what a website needs to show?
A homeowner refreshing a living room wants to see colour choices, tidy edges, and before-and-after photos of similar rooms. A landlord or property manager doing multiple flats between tenancies cares more about reliability and whether you can turn jobs around efficiently. A website that acknowledges both types of work signals that you understand different jobs have different priorities, which builds confidence before any conversation starts.
