01
Not mobile-friendly
On a phone the page shows up tiny. I build for the phone first, so nobody has to pinch and zoom.
Websites for local service businesses
Make it easy to call you.
Simple, fast one-page sites for heating, plumbing, roofing, lawn care, cleaning, auto repair and salon businesses. A big call button, your services, your hours.

What I fix
Four problems that cost you calls.
02
No tap-to-call button
Your number is small plain text, easy to scroll past. I put a big call button at the top and the number on every screen.
03
Old look, old footer year
A footer that says 2014 makes people wonder if you are still open. Mine updates itself every year.
04
Broken links
A menu link that ends in an error looks careless. I click every link before launch and again on launch day.
How it works
Look first. Pay after you like it.
Free preview
I make a picture of a better one-page site from what is already public. It is free, not published anywhere, and you can say no.
You approve
I send a written scope and price. You pay half to start and get the included rounds of changes until it is right.
Live in days
About 5 to 10 business days after I have your info and photos. If I am waiting on you, the clock waits too. The other half is due when you approve it and it goes live.
I use modern tools, including AI, to build quickly, and I check every site by hand before it goes live.
Prices
One price, in writing, before any work starts.
One-time prices. I quote the low end for simple jobs and the high end when there is more content.

Optional care plan: $50 - $100 a monthDetails in the fine print below. Cancel any time with 30 days' notice.
The fine print
Not included
- No promises about Google ranking, number of calls, or more sales. A better site helps; results depend on many things.
- No made-up reviews, testimonials, awards or stats. I only use real facts you give me.
- Logo design, professional photography and paid ads are separate.
- Text-message or call automations are separate and quoted in writing.
- Extra changes or new pages beyond the included rounds: $50 per hour, quoted before I do them.
What you pay others
These bills go to accounts in your own name, with your own card. I do not resell them.
- Domain name: roughly $10 - $20 a year
- Hosting: a one-page site can fit a free tier; a traditional host is roughly $5 - $15 a month
Optional care plan: $50 - $100 a month. I keep the site and HTTPS running, make small text, hours and price changes, and check each month that the site loads and the phone link works. Cancel any time with 30 days' notice.
Figures are rough and can change. I look up current prices with you before you buy anything.

I am Gabriel Hicks in Springfield, Missouri. Good Call Web is a new business, so I have no client list to show you. What I can show is the free preview, the examples above, and this page, which is built the way I would build yours. I keep things simple and put them in writing.
How I check a site

- The number is tap-to-callReal call links, not plain text.
- The footer year is currentThe year is generated, so it cannot go stale.
- No broken linksEvery link clicked by hand and run through a link checker.
This page passes all four.
FAQ
Honest answers.
How much does it cost?
A one-page site is $500 to $900, one time. Lower for simple jobs, higher if there is more content. Optional upkeep is $50 to $100 a month. On top of that you pay a domain, about $10 to $20 a year, and hosting, which for a one-page site can be free or about $5 to $15 a month, in your own name.
How long does it take?
About 5 to 10 business days after I have your info and photos. If I am waiting on you, the clock waits too. A larger Full site takes about 2 to 3 weeks after I have the content.
Do I own the site?
Yes. After the final payment, you own the site files and the domain. Your domain, hosting and any form service are in your name and paid by you. If we stop working together, you keep it all.
What do you need from me?
Your services, the towns you cover, your hours, your phone number, the email where messages should go, and any photos you want shown. Only real facts. I do not add reviews, awards or numbers you have not given me.
Is there a contract?
No long lock-in. Before any work I send a one-page written scope and price: what is included, how many rounds of changes, the timeline and who owns what. You pay half to start and half when you approve the site and it goes live. Either side can stop before launch, and the deposit covers the work already done. The care plan can be cancelled with 30 days' notice.
Will this get me more calls?
I cannot promise that. I can promise a clearer site that is easy to use on a phone. What it brings in depends on many things.
