custom / not template
Built from your actual business.
We write around your services, neighborhoods, photos, hours, and proof points instead of forcing you into a generic contractor theme.

No calls. No homework packet. Just a site you can use.
Torch is built for owner-operators who are too busy running jobs to manage a web project. We make the first move and show you the finished work before you pay.
01 / find
We use the business info already in the open.
Your services, service area, reviews, hours, and existing site tell us enough to draft the first version without pulling you into meetings.
02 / build
We turn that into a full custom website.
Homepage, service sections, local trust signals, contact paths, mobile layout, and clear copy aimed at getting more qualified calls.
03 / preview
You get a finished preview by email.
Open the link when you have a minute. If the business details are right and the site feels usable, you can keep it.
04 / keep
Sign within 7 days and your first month is free.
Choose Foundation or Growth, cancel anytime, and send edit requests by email when your services or hours change.
A website agency stripped down to what trade owners need.
The output is practical: a site that loads cleanly, explains the work, builds trust, and makes the next action obvious.
calls / quotes
Designed around buyer intent.
Phone, quote, and service paths are visible from the first screen so urgent visitors know what to do next.
mobile / local
Made for people searching on the go.
Clear service pages, readable mobile sections, and local context help customers decide quickly when they need a trade pro.
async / low friction
No project management tax.
No kickoff calendar, no shared drive archaeology, no revision theater. Reply by email when something is wrong or missing.
hosting / care
We keep the site running.
Hosting and basic upkeep are included, so the site does not become another software account you have to remember.
days / not weeks
Fast enough to matter.
The preview arrives in days, which means you can decide while the old site is still costing you calls.
The preview is the pitch.
Instead of selling a process, Torch sends a concrete site. You judge the work directly: does it explain the trade, feel trustworthy, and make the phone ring easier?
before / after logic
From "we should fix the website someday" to a live-ready preview.
Most small trade sites fail in boring ways: hidden phone numbers, vague service lists, outdated pages, slow mobile layouts, or no clear reason to call this business instead of the next result.
/Call and quote actions placed where customers look first.
/Service copy written in plain language, not agency filler.
/Local credibility, hours, and service area pulled into view.
/Email-based edits after you choose to keep the site.

Questions owners ask before saying yes.
Short answers, because the product is intentionally plain: we build the preview, you decide whether to keep it.
Do I need to take a call?
No. Torch is fully async. If we need a missing detail, we ask by email. Otherwise we use your public business information to build the preview.
Is it a template?
No. The site is designed and written around your trade, services, service area, and customer path. The point is to feel like your business, not a directory clone.
What happens after the preview?
If you want to keep it, choose Foundation or Growth. If you sign within 7 days, your first month is free. If not, nothing else is required.
Can I cancel?
Yes. Both plans are month-to-month. The offer is built to be easy to try and easy to leave.
Who is Torch best for?
Independent local trade businesses with roughly 1-20 employees, especially shops with no website, a weak website, or a site the owner no longer wants to manage.
