Why we started Toolbelt.
To everyone who is brilliant at the job and invisible online.
Walk down any high street and you will find grafters who do immaculate work, represented online by nothing, or by a website that was knocked up in 2009 and never touched again. Meanwhile the customers are all on their phones, deciding in seconds who to trust. The work goes to whoever looks the part, not always to whoever does the best job. That never sat right with us.
So we built Toolbelt: properly designed websites made specifically for UK trades, at a price a one-van business can justify. Set up to be found on Google, quick on a phone, with a blog you can keep up yourself, and AI writing help as an add-on if you would rather not. Then one app for the enquiries, the diary and the invoices, so the website is not a brochure. It is the front door of the business.
No hard sell. No jargon. No disappearing once you are live. A small UK team, where a real person replies within one working day.
Four things we won’t budge on.
- Built like a proper job
- No templates dressed up as bespoke. Every site is designed around your trade, your patch, and the work you actually want more of.
- No jargon, ever
- You will not be baffled with tech-speak or nickel-and-dimed for changes. We explain things plainly and do what we say we will do.
- Fair, honest pricing
- No build fee, one monthly price. No surprise invoices, no holding your domain hostage. It is your site.
- Made to win work
- Pretty is nice; phone calls pay the bills. Every decision is pointed at one thing: turning visitors into customers.
