Write for the prequalification stage
Your site is read during PQQ and shortlisting, not during a search for a builder. Accreditations, insurance levels, turnover band and completed contract values are what that reader came for.
Your next contract starts with someone checking you out quietly.
Nobody rings a construction company off the back of a search. They look you up while deciding whether to invite you to tender, and what they find decides whether your name stays on the list.

How construction work is actually bought.
Commercial construction isn't domestic building with bigger numbers. The buyer is a procurement team or a developer, the decision runs through prequalification and tender, and the website's job is to survive a shortlist rather than to generate a phone call.
The construction companies services worth ranking for.
01Commercial new build
02Industrial and warehousing
03Civil engineering and groundworks
04Fit-out and refurbishment
05Public sector and framework work
Where we would start with construction companies.
Publish the accreditations properly
CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, ISO certifications and your CSCS position are pass/fail criteria on many tenders. Registration numbers belong on the page where they can be checked.
Show contract values, not just photographs
A developer needs to know you have delivered at their size. A project gallery without values, durations and sectors cannot answer the only question they're asking.
Separate sectors, not services
Industrial, commercial fit-out, education, healthcare and civils are bought by different people with different requirements. Sector pages beat a list of construction services.
