My customers are often other builders, not the public, does that change the site

Yes, a bit, worth naming plant, capacity and past project scale plainly, since a builder assessing you as a subcontractor is asking different questions to a homeowner. The site can speak to both without needing two separate versions.

Should I explain groundworks in plain English or assume the reader knows

Plain English. A lot of visitors do not know the difference between groundworks and general building work until it is explained, and a site that does the explaining builds trust rather than losing the reader.

How do I show the scale of plant and equipment I run

A short list or a small gallery on the about or services page does the job. It matters more to a builder assessing you as a subcontractor than to most direct homeowner enquiries.

For groundworks

Website design for groundworks contractors in Exeter, Devon and the South West

Groundworks is a trade most customers do not fully understand before they need it, site clearance, drainage, foundations, so a site that explains plainly what is actually involved, without jargon, builds more trust than one that assumes the reader already knows. A lot of groundworks enquiries also come through a main contractor or a builder rather than direct from the public, so a site aimed partly at that trade-to-trade audience is worth planning for.
