Websites for property and construction companies

Castlegate designs and builds websites for construction companies and the wider property industry, where a strong website is often the difference between a missed opportunity and a new client.

We have designed websites for architects, estate agencies, construction consultants, and property developers, including a recent rebuild for landscaping company Astek Garden Design & Build, a bold brand refresh for commercial fit-out specialist Ben Johnson Interiors, and a new website for heavy plant hire provider Fairfax Plant Hire. Our construction industry websites are built to present your work, your properties, or your services in a way that sets you apart from competitors.

Property and construction websites often need to work hard on mobile, whether that is a tradesperson checking a job spec onsite or a buyer browsing listings on their commute. We build responsive, WordPress-powered websites with features including property search and portal integrations, project portfolios, and downloadable technical documents, helping your business generate enquiries from the right audience, wherever they are.

Your online showcase

Whether you are an architect, estate agent, contractor, or property developer, your website is often a prospective client’s first impression of the quality of your work. We design websites and, where needed, branding that reflect each client’s ethos and values, using strong photography and clear project portfolios to showcase completed work in a way that builds trust before a single conversation takes place.

Bespoke and versatile

Property and construction businesses need different things from a website, a searchable property portal, a project gallery, a downloadable technical document, or simply a straightforward enquiry form. Built on WordPress, our websites are versatile enough to support whichever combination your business needs, including online shops, galleries, and integrated property search.

The result is a website that keeps working for you long after a visitor’s first click, rather than losing them at the first hurdle.
