How UK electricians can use their website to win the jobs they want: credentials, service pages for EICRs and EV chargers, and quote forms that filter enquiries.
A UK electrician's phone usually rings for two reasons: an urgent fault, or a planned job like a consumer unit upgrade, rewire, EICR or EV charger. A good website helps with both, but its real value is in the planned work. Those customers compare two or three electricians, check credentials and reviews, and choose the one who looks most trustworthy and easiest to deal with.
This guide covers the credentials to show, the service pages that bring the right enquiries, and how to set up a quote form that saves you wasted site visits. WebNest builds websites for UK trades remotely; our UK page explains how we work.

Show the credentials customers look for
Domestic electrical work in England and Wales falls under Part P of the Building Regulations, and many customers know to look for registration with a competent person scheme such as NICEIC or NAPIT. If you are registered, show the scheme logo and your registration details on the homepage and quote page, and explain in plain words what it means: notifiable work is certified and registered with building control without the customer arranging an inspection.
Add your public liability insurance, the warranty you offer, and the qualifications your team holds. Only show logos and memberships that are current — customers and schemes can check, and an expired badge does more damage than none.
Service pages that match how people search
Customers search for the job, not 'electrician services'. Give your main jobs their own pages with what's involved, how long it takes, what the customer needs to do and a starting price where you can give one.
- Consumer unit (fuse box) replacement
- Full and partial rewires
- EICRs for landlords and homebuyers
- EV charger installation
- Lighting, sockets and extensions
- Fault finding and emergency call-outs
- Commercial and landlord maintenance
Landlord and EICR pages are worth the effort
Private landlords in England have had to get an Electrical Installation Condition Report at least every five years since the 2020 private rented sector regulations, and give a copy to tenants. That creates steady, repeat demand. A dedicated landlord page can explain the requirement in plain English, what the inspection involves, what happens if remedial work is needed, typical timing for a flat or house, and how you handle access with tenants or letting agents.
Agents and portfolio landlords value a simple booking process and clear pricing per property type. Offering a short form that captures the number of properties and their postcodes brings better enquiries than a general 'contact us'.
A quote form that filters jobs
A good form saves you driving to jobs you'd turn down. Ask for the postcode first so out-of-area enquiries are clear, then the type of job, the property type and age if known, a short description and optional photos. Photos of a consumer unit or the charger location let you give a realistic estimate before visiting.
Keep it short on mobile and say when you'll reply. Add a tap-to-call button for urgent faults so emergencies don't sit in an inbox.
Reviews, Google Business Profile and directories
Reviews on your Google Business Profile and trade directories such as Checkatrade or TrustATrader carry a lot of weight. Link to them from your site and show a few genuine ones with first names and the town. Since April 2025 the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act has made fake reviews explicitly unlawful in the UK, so never write or buy them.
Keep your business name, address and phone number consistent everywhere: website, Business Profile, Companies House if you're a limited company, and every directory. Inconsistent details weaken local search visibility.
Cookies, privacy and forms
If your site uses analytics or advertising cookies, UK rules (PECR and UK GDPR) require consent before non-essential cookies are set. Use a proper consent banner, keep a short privacy notice explaining what the quote form collects and how long you keep it, and don't add customers to marketing emails without consent.
Frequently asked questions
Should I show NICEIC or NAPIT logos on my website?
Yes, if your registration is current. Show the logo with your registration details and a link to the scheme's register so customers can check it.
What pages does an electrician website need?
A homepage, a page for each main job type (rewires, consumer units, EICRs, EV chargers), an areas-covered page, reviews, about and a contact or quote page.
Should I publish prices?
Starting prices for standard jobs such as EICRs by property size or a typical consumer unit replacement help customers decide and filter out poor-fit enquiries. Explain what can change the final price.
How do I get more landlord work through my website?
Create a landlord page explaining EICR requirements, pricing per property type and how you arrange access, with a form that captures the number of properties and postcodes.
Can WebNest build a website for a UK electrician?
