Contractor website

Laguna Electric

A contractor website that helps sell.

They asked for a website to show their work. I built them one that also helps sell: a tool that lets homeowners price a backup power system before they ever pick up the phone.

01 The problem

The hard partwas the quote.

Laguna Electric is a licensed electrical contractor in Orange County. They are great at what they do, but their website did not show it. The brief was simple: a clean site that shows what they offer.

As I learned more, I saw where the real pain was. People shopping for generators and batteries have lots of questions. What size? What brand? What is this federal rebate? So I pitched something extra: a tool that lets people set up a system and see a rough price on their own. They said yes.

02 What I did

What I did

  1. 01

    Three short steps

    Pick your system, set it up, see your estimate. Each step only shows what matters for your choice, so nobody gets lost.

  2. 02

    A price that moves with you

    All the math runs in the browser. Change an option and the price changes right away. It covers base cost, size, brand, fuel and the 30% federal rebate.

  3. 03

    Every cost on show

    The estimate lists each line: equipment, upgrades, brand and the rebate. People can see where their money goes.

  4. 04

    One click to a real quote

    At the end, asking for a full quote is one click. Someone who knows what they want, and roughly what it costs, is much more likely to call.

03 Details

Details that matter

Only asks what matters

Going with a battery? You will not see generator brands or fuel types. Choosing both? You get the full set. The form follows your choices.

Works on a phone

Most people will find this on their phone. The whole tool works just as well on a small screen as on a desktop.

Built to be found

Pages are built on the server with clean markup and the right tags, so search engines can read every word.

Light until you need it

The estimator only loads when you scroll to it. The rest of the site stays quick.

05 For your site

What you can take from it.

Answer the question people ask before they call. For most businesses it is "how much?" A rough price, shown openly, brings you people who are ready to talk. It also saves you the calls from people who were never going to buy.

If you need a website that does more than look good, one that helps your business, I would love to hear about it.
