NorthStarGet started

Welcome aboard — here's everything we need

You've paid, so the build starts now. We’ve texted and emailed you a private link — it takes your details and your photos in one go.

You don’t have to do it all at once. The link stays open, so you can come back and add photos whenever you get a minute.

Our 14-day clock starts once we have your photos and service list — those two are what hold builds up, so send them first if you can.

1. Your photos — the most important thing on this list

10–20 photos of your own finished work

This is what sells you. Homeowners decide from photos before they read a single word.

  • Shoot in daylight, hold the phone sideways (horizontal) when you can
  • Before-and-after pairs are the single most persuasive thing you can send
  • Wide shots of the finished job, plus a few close-ups of detail work
  • Send the original photos from your camera roll — not screenshots
Important: only send photos of jobs your crew actually did. We can't use photos from suppliers, Pinterest, Google, or other companies — that's a copyright problem for you, and homeowners can tell.
A photo of you, or you and your crew

People hire people. A real face on the site beats a stock photo every time.

Your truck, van, or equipment (if it's branded)

Signals you're an established operation, not a guy with a ladder.

2. About your business

The exact business name you want on the site

Including LLC or Inc. if you want it shown.

Phone number, email, and hours

The phone number that should ring when a customer wants a quote.

The towns and areas you serve

We build a page section around these — it's a big part of how you show up in local Google searches.

The year you started

"Serving Northern Virginia since 2014" is worth more than any paragraph we could write.

Licence number and insurance details — if you have them

Licensed and insured badges measurably increase quote requests. If you don't have these, no problem at all — we simply leave them off. We will never put a claim on your site that you haven't given us.

Your logo, if you have one

Any format is fine. If you don't have one, we'll set your name in clean type — that looks better than a bad logo.

3. What you do

Your list of services

Each one gets its own page — that's a large part of why you'll outrank competitors who only have a single page.

  • Just list them out. A voice memo or a text works fine — you don't need to write anything formal.
The job you most want more of

We'll build the site to push that work to the front, so the phone rings for the jobs you actually want.

Anything you do not want to appear on the site

Work you're phasing out, areas you won't drive to, prices you'd rather not publish.

4. Where your leads should go

The email address for new quote requests

Every form submission from your site lands here.

The mobile number for lead text alerts

You'll get a text from our NorthStar line the moment someone requests a quote, so you can call them back from the job site. Speed wins these jobs — the contractor who calls back first usually gets the work.

5. Your web address

Two or three domain names you'd like, in order of preference

Shorter is better — you'll be saying it over the phone. We'll check what's available, register it, and cover the yearly cost as part of your plan.

What happens next

Step 1You fill in your link — details first, then photos.
Step 2We build your site — usually 7 to 14 days.
Step 3You review it and we make your changes.
Step 4We launch it and send you the link for your Google listing.

Remember: your first two months of the care plan are free. After that it's $79/month, which covers your hosting, your domain, keeping your reviews updated on the site, your quarterly search optimization, and small changes whenever you need them.

Questions at any point — just call or text. That's what we're here for.
