Thomson Bilt builds some of the best sheds and steel structures on the Limestone Coast. But your current website doesn't tell that story. When a potential customer Googles "shed builder Mount Gambier", they find outdated information that doesn't reflect a decade of quality work.
Here's what a professional website does for Thomson Bilt:
Pre-qualifies enquiries
A structured quote form captures building type, size, and budget BEFORE you pick up the phone. You see "commercial, 12×18m, $50K budget, has council approval" and know exactly who to call first.
Answers repeat questions
Every FAQ answer is a phone call you don't have to take. "Do I need council approval?" "What about the slab?" "How long does it take?" — all handled.
Showcases your range
A filterable project gallery shows domestic sheds, commercial buildings, farm structures, and garage doors. Customers understand your capability before they call.
Positions you premium
A site that looks like Ranbuild or Fair Dinkum Builds tells customers you're a serious operation. Premium positioning justifies premium pricing.
Attracts quality staff
Good tradies check your website before applying. A professional presence attracts better candidates.
13 pages designed to save you time and win better work:
Hero, service pillars, featured projects, testimonial, call-to-action.
Residential options, Fair Dinkum range, customisation, gallery, quote CTA.
Commercial, industrial, farm. Custom design capability, project gallery.
B&D product range, installation and repair services.
Filterable by category (Domestic / Commercial / Farm / Doors). 12-15 projects with photos, location, building type, size. Editable via CMS — add new projects as you complete them.
The Thomson Bilt story — Leon and Julia's journey, business history, what sets you apart, accreditations.
10-15 questions answered in detail. Every answer here is a phone call you don't take. Ends with a soft CTA: "Every project is different — get in touch for an accurate quote."
Structured form: building type, size, council status, slab requirements, budget range, referral source. You glance at a submission and instantly know who's serious.
5 SEO posts: "Shed Cost Guide 2026", "Council Approval in SA", "Farm vs Residential", "Choosing a Garage Door", "5 Things Before Building". Each one ranks on Google AND answers a question you get asked constantly.
Phone, email, Google Maps, quick contact form.
Australian-compliant.
Branded error page.
