A. Heritage and trust$1,520 fixed
Marlbrook & Sons Decorators
Family painting and decorating firms with decades on the same streets, who do the work themselves and win on prep rather than price.
Painter website examples: four designs for painting contractors
Four finished websites for painters: the family decorating firm with forty years of the same town's houses, the design-led studio for heritage interiors and colour consultancy, the exterior and commercial crew that works at height, and the lead machine that prices a job by the room before anyone visits. Click through any of them, then order the one that fits.
MigrateLab builds high-performing websites for local businesses. Fixed price, live in 7 working days, fast on mobile, and yours to keep.
B. Premium design-led$2,320 fixed
Pigment Hall Decorative Painting
Decorators who sell colour and specialist finishes rather than day rates: heritage interiors, listed buildings, hand-painted kitchens, and work that comes through interior designers.
C. Bold and industrial$1,920 fixed
Highside Exterior & Commercial Painting
Exterior and commercial painting crews whose work is apartment blocks, warehouses, schools and towers, where access and scheduling cost more than the paint.
D. Lead machine$2,320 fixed
Coatline Painters
High-volume residential painting firms that want a homeowner to get a price and book a survey without waiting on three quotes.
You get the design you pick, made into your own site
Every demo on this page is a real layout we rebuild for you. The structure, the sections and the special feature stay as you see them. Your name, logo, colours, photos and wording replace ours, so it looks like it was always yours, and no other business in your area gets the same site.
Stays as you see it
- The layout and page structure, section by section
- The special feature, like the map, calculator or booking calendar
- How it looks and works on a phone, and how fast it loads
- Type and spacing tuned so it still looks designed
Becomes yours
- Your business name and logo. No logo yet? We set your name in a clean wordmark
- Your brand colours, applied across buttons, headings and backgrounds
- Your photos, or licensed photos chosen for your trade
- Your services, prices, service area, team and reviews
- Your phone, email, address and domain
Want a section from another design, or one moved or left out? Put it in your notes. Small changes like that are included.
Nobody buys paint. They buy the finished room, and they buy the belief that your crew will turn up, cover the furniture, do the prep properly and leave on the day they said. That belief is built with photographs, and almost no painting website has enough of them, because the template it was built on had room for three.
The four sites below sell painting four different ways. One sells a family name and the houses on your street. One sells colour, heritage interiors and a designer's eye. One sells exterior and commercial work, scaffolding, height and schedules. One is a lead machine that prices a job by rooms and coats and books the survey. Every one is real, responsive and ready to rebuild around your business.
Each design, in detail
A. Heritage and trust
Marlbrook & Sons Decorators
Four painters, one family, and the same prep we used in 1968.
$1,520 fixed, 7 working days
Who it suits. Family painting and decorating firms with decades on the same streets, who do the work themselves and win on prep rather than price.
Why it converts.
- The twice-painted sliders prove longevity in a way no testimonial can: the same address, the years, and what the paint looked like when they came back
- Prep is written out as seven steps with the three refusals named, which is exactly where a homeowner suspects a cheap quote is hiding something
- A room price and a house-size price sit above the form, so nobody has to call to find out whether they can afford it
What we swap for your business. Your founding year, painter names and years on the tools, your own repeat addresses and photo pairs, your room and exterior prices, the paint ranges you buy, your towns and your insurance figures.
- Palette
- LinenDeep greenOchreOxbloodInk
- Type
- Lora for headings, Karla for text
- Logo
- A half-painted signwriter panel: linen above a wet paint edge, deep green below it, with the M monogram crossing the line and 1968 under it
- Sections
- Hero with the founding year, a tappable phone number and an average room price. Trust strip: since 1968, four painters and no subcontractors, $2m liability, two week lead time. What we do inside and what we do outside, as two separate lists. Houses we have painted twice: before and after drag sliders from the same address years apart. Prep written out step by step, and the three things we refuse to paint over. Prices by room and by house size, with the exclusions named. The paint we use, and three sample patches on your own wall. Dust sheets, working hours, pets and what happens if we splash something. The four painters, with the years each has been on the tools. Towns we work in, and how far we travel. Sample reviews from repeat addresses. How a job runs: the look, the written price, the ladders. Questions we get asked at the front door. Written price request form.
B. Premium design-led
Pigment Hall Decorative Painting
We are paid for the colour. The painting is how it gets on the wall.
$2,320 fixed, 7 working days
Who it suits. Decorators who sell colour and specialist finishes rather than day rates: heritage interiors, listed buildings, hand-painted kitchens, and work that comes through interior designers.
Why it converts.
- The colour room answers the question that actually stalls a decorating job, which colour and which finish, before anyone has to book a visit
- Every finish carries its own price per square metre or per kitchen, so a designer can budget a scheme from the page without a call
- Heritage and listed work is given its own section with the paperwork named, which is what wins the specification on a period house
What we swap for your business. Your finishes and rates, your colour library, your project photography, the designers and architects you work for, and the towns you cover. The wordmark is redrawn in your name.
- Palette
- Distemper whiteAubergineSageTerracottaInk
- Type
- Playfair Display for headings, Figtree for text
- Logo
- High-contrast serif wordmark set on two lines with a filled colour square dropped into the counter of the H, so the mark is a single swatch with a thin brushed edge
- Sections
- Hero: the finished room, the phone number, and the consultation as the one action. Trust line: years, listed consents, insurance, how far ahead we are booked. Verity Ambrell on why the colour is charged for before a brush comes out. The six finishes, each with what it costs and where it belongs. The colour room: pick a room, a light direction and a period, get three colours and a finish spec. Listed buildings: what we hand to a conservation officer. The four designers who send most of the work, and the trade terms. The valley: six towns, the drive to each, and how far we travel free. Four rooms, what they were, what we did and what they cost. Reviews, 4.9 from 88 (sample). Three appointments between the phone call and the first coat. Questions asked at the first visit. Book the colour consultation.
C. Bold and industrial
Highside Exterior & Commercial Painting
Exteriors at height, on buildings that stay open.
$1,920 fixed, 7 working days
Who it suits. Exterior and commercial painting crews whose work is apartment blocks, warehouses, schools and towers, where access and scheduling cost more than the paint.
Why it converts.
- The height picker answers the only question that decides the price of an exterior job, so a property manager can self-qualify before they call
- Day rates, access costs and the weather window are printed, which is the part every ladder-and-a-van competitor leaves blank
- The occupants section and the month-by-month season sell the schedule, which is what loses these jobs after the price is agreed
What we swap for your business. Your towns, day rates, access methods, coating systems and season. The drawn elevation is redrawn to the tallest building you actually work on, and the height bands are set to your own kit.
- Palette
- CharcoalSafety orangeSteelSkyBone
- Type
- Oswald for headings, Barlow for text
- Logo
- A stepped elevation mark: three rising blocks with a rule line through them, condensed Oswald wordmark, EXTERIOR & COMMERCIAL set small beneath
- Sections
- Hero: full-bleed access shot at height, tappable phone, season status, a height scale down the side. Trust bar: years, crew size, IPAF and rope access, $10m cover, licence. Six kinds of building, all of them taller than a ladder. Access, by height: a drawn elevation where each height band shows the access method, day rate, weather window and a job done at that height. Render, brick, cladding, steel, and what goes on each. Nobody moves out while we paint: working around occupants. Seven towns, and what the scaffold costs to get there. Three jobs, measured in square metres and days. Insured to $10m, and nobody paints off a ladder above 3 metres. April to October, month by month. Sample reviews from the people who hold the keys. Survey, fixed price per elevation, one elevation at a time. FAQ a facilities manager asks first. Book a survey from the ground.
D. Lead machine
Coatline Painters
Painting priced by the room, not by the visit
$2,320 fixed, 7 working days
Who it suits. High-volume residential painting firms that want a homeowner to get a price and book a survey without waiting on three quotes.
Why it converts.
- A homeowner gets a real price range and a day count in about a minute, so they stop collecting quotes and book
- Every price on the page is a number, including what the extras cost, so nobody has to call to find out if they can afford it
- The estimator ends on a booked survey with a date, not a form that disappears into an inbox
What we swap for your business. Your room rates, extras, prep bands and day capacity drive the estimator. Your towns and lead times, your price list, your guarantee, your before and after photos. The roller mark is redrawn in your colours.
- Palette
- WhiteCobaltSunshineInkMist
- Type
- Urbanist for headings, Inter for text
- Logo
- A roller laying a cobalt band with a sunshine wet edge, beside a tight Urbanist wordmark
- Sections
- Header with a tappable phone number and a price-your-job button. Hero: a price in a minute instead of three quotes, with the day rate and the next free week. Trust bar: licence, insurance, crews of two, rating, two-year guarantee. What we paint: rooms, whole interiors, exteriors, kitchen doors, ceilings, rental turnarounds. Price your paint job: the room-by-room estimator with days on site and a booked survey. The full price list, per room and per house. What pushes a price up, and what does not. Service areas with the next free week per town. Before and after on three jobs, with the price and the days. The two-year workmanship guarantee in plain words. Sample reviews with the job and the price. How it works in three steps. FAQ. Book a survey form, footer, sticky mobile call and price bar.

Why MigrateLab
Why have us build it instead of a builder or an agency
You own it outright
The site is real code on your own hosting account, not a page inside a builder you rent. Leave us any time and take everything with you.
No platform subscription
Wix, Squarespace and Webflow charge every month forever. Hosting for a site like this costs a few dollars a month under your own account.
Built by people who do migrations for a living
MigrateLab moves company websites off closed platforms onto clean code. Small business sites are the same craft with less to move.
Fixed price, fixed week
The price on this page is the price. The week is the week. If we slip, you get a discount, not an excuse.
Fast on a phone, found on Google
Every site ships with the search basics done and a mobile score we are happy to show you. Most agency sites fail both.
AI can edit it, and so can you
Because it is plain code, tools like Claude and Cursor can change it in seconds. You also get a normal editor for everyday text and photo changes.
After launch
Editing and maintenance, made clear
Three ways to keep the site current after launch. Pick one at handover, switch later if you change your mind.
Edit it yourself
$0 per month
You get a simple editor for text, photos, services, reviews and service areas. Hosting runs under your own account for a few dollars a month. No contract with us.
- +Editor login for your team
- +Hosting under your own account
- +Written handover guide
- +Email support for 30 days
Care plan
$63 per month
We host it, watch it and change it for you. Send an email with the change, it is live within one working day. Cancel any month.
- +Hosting, backups and uptime monitoring
- +Unlimited small edits: text, photos, prices, hours, reviews
- +Security and dependency updates
- +A monthly note with visits, calls and form leads
Let AI edit it
$0 per month
The code is clean enough that Claude Code or Cursor can add a page, change a section or swap a photo from a plain English request. We set it up and show you how.
- +Repository handed over to you
- +AI tooling configured
- +One recorded walkthrough
- +Bigger changes quoted per job
Questions
How much does a painting contractor website cost?
From us, $1,520 to $2,320 as a fixed, one-time price, depending on which of the four designs you pick, live in 7 working days. That includes the design rebuilt around your business, the copy, forms, search basics and connecting your domain. After launch you can edit it yourself for $0 a month or have us look after it for $63 a month. For comparison, agencies typically quote $3,000 to $10,000 for a small business site, and builder subscriptions run $20 to $50 a month for as long as the site exists.
Will my site look exactly like the demo?
It keeps the same design, layout and structure, and the same special feature. Everything that is ours becomes yours: your name and logo, your brand colours, your photos, services, prices and contact details. Small changes, like borrowing a section from another design or leaving one out, are included in the fixed price.
Who can build a website for my painting contractor?
MigrateLab builds websites for painting contractor owners. Pick one of four finished designs at migratelab.com/examples/painter-websites, send your logo, photos and details, and we rebuild it around your business for a fixed $1,520 to $2,320, live in 7 working days. You own the site, there is no platform subscription, and you can edit it yourself or have us look after it.
Can I get a painting contractor website without a monthly platform fee?
Yes. A MigrateLab site is yours outright and runs on your own hosting for a few dollars a month, instead of a $20 to $50 monthly builder plan. You pay a one-time $1,520 to $2,320 for the build, and a care plan at $63 a month is optional if you want us to make changes for you.
Are these real websites or just designs?
Real. Each concept is a complete, responsive website you can click through on any device. The businesses are fictional so you can see the design with realistic content, but the code and layout are exactly what you would receive.
Can the site estimate a painting job?
Yes. We build an estimator on your own rates: number of rooms or wall area, coats, prep level and any specialist work in, a price range out, then a booked survey. You stop quoting jobs that were never going to buy.
I get work from word of mouth. Do I need a website?
Most painters we talk to are busy on referrals and Instagram and word of mouth. That works until the phone goes quiet, or someone searches your name and finds nothing, or a customer asks an AI assistant who to call. A site you own answers all of that, shows up when people search for your trade in your town, and does not disappear when a platform changes its rules.
What happens after I pick one?
You send your logo if you have one, photos of your work, your services and prices, and the towns you cover. We rebuild the site around your business and send a private preview within a week. One round of changes, then it goes live on your domain.
Will I be able to edit it myself?
Yes. Text, photos, prices and service areas are editable without touching code. Or pick the care plan and text or email us the change.
What does it cost per month?
Nothing to us unless you choose the care plan. Hosting under your own account is a few dollars a month. There is no platform subscription.
Get one of these built for you
Pick the design, leave your email, and we reply within one working day with a plan and a written confirmation of the price. Live in 7 working days from the day we have your basics.
