This page is published by Tanner Preserve Web Co. (tannerpreserve.co), which sells a competing service. That disclosure applies to the whole page. Every number about Squarespace below is dated and sourced; where Squarespace does not publish a price, that is stated instead of guessed at.

What the number doesn't include
- No lead routing, CRM, or missed-call handling
- No contractor trade knowledge baked into templates or copy
- Transaction fees on lower tiers (2% on Basic) if you sell anything through the site
- No one to call when a page needs a change; you edit it yourself
Where Squarespace is the better fit
- Squarespace's templates are genuinely better-looking out of the box for portfolio-style work
- You want full e-commerce (products, subscriptions, memberships) on the same platform
- You're comfortable being your own webmaster and want the lowest possible fixed cost
Not for a contractor whose real problem is missed calls and un-followed-up quotes, not template design. That part is what I sell instead.
