Which projects should go in the portfolio?

Select projects that represent the work you want more of and that you have permission to publish. For each case, include the service, broad location or service area, challenge, scope and finished result. Useful photos should have descriptive captions and, where possible, show stages that help buyers understand the work. Do not imply that every project followed the same schedule or cost.

What should a quote request form ask?

Ask only for information that changes whether the team can respond usefully: service type, location, project description, approximate timing, property type and a safe way to reply. Photos or plans can be optional. If attachments are allowed, state acceptable file types and handle them securely. A rough budget range may help for larger projects, but explain why it is being requested.

Construction and Trades Website: Project Portfolio and Quote Request Checklist

Plan a construction or trades website that shows relevant work, explains service areas and collects quote requests your team can actually assess.

What does a construction or trades website need to win useful quote requests? It needs to show the kind of work the company actually does, where it works and what information is needed to estimate a job. A gallery alone cannot answer those questions. A form that only asks for a name and phone number may produce enquiries the team cannot assess.

The website brief should connect project evidence with a practical intake process. A homeowner comparing roof repairs has different questions from a facilities manager planning a multi-site refurbishment. Make the intended customer and project size explicit before deciding which pages to build.

Page element	Buyer question it answers	Information owner
Service description	Do you do my kind of job?	Operations lead
Service area	Will you come to my location?	Scheduling team
Project example	Have you handled similar work?	Project manager
Quote steps	What information do you need first?	Estimating team
Credentials	What qualifications or cover can you substantiate?	Business owner
