Home › Carpenters and joiners
In short
WebAutonomos builds websites for English-speaking carpenters, joiners, kitchen fitters and window installers working in Spain. We show your projects, write the copy in English and Spanish (up to four languages) at no extra cost, and include what Spanish law expects: a legal notice with your NIF or NIE, prices for homeowners shown with VAT included, and the complaint information your region asks for. It costs €15 + VAT per month with no setup fee and no lock-in, or a one-off €349 + VAT. We work with you in English, and your demo is ready within 24 hours.
Spanish rules
What your website and quotes have to get right
Carpentry isn't a regulated profession in Spain, but as soon as you work for homeowners, consumer law and your region's rules decide what your website, quotes and invoices must show. These are the points that matter.
| Topic | Law | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|
| Legal notice | LSSI (Ley 34/2002), art. 10 | Your name or company name, your address, your email and another direct contact detail (usually your phone), your NIF (for a foreign national, your NIE), your Registro Mercantil details if you trade as an S.L., and, if you show prices, whether they include VAT. |
| Written quotes | Comunitat Valenciana: Decreto 11/1995; Madrid: Decreto 35/1995; Catalonia: Consumer Code, art. 251-3 | In these regions a homeowner is entitled to a detailed written quote with set contents before work starts, unless they waive it in their own handwriting and sign; a pre-printed waiver is not enough. Madrid's consumer office also expects renovation firms to offer a price information sheet on their website. |
| Complaints | Consumer law (TRLGDCU), art. 21.3; regional rules | Tell customers where they can complain: at least through the channel your contract with them started on (WhatsApp or your web form, for example), by post, by phone and by an electronic channel. Since 28 December 2025 you must reply within 15 days at most (previously a month). Official complaint forms are regional: in Andalucía, businesses without premises must show a QR complaint poster on quotes, invoices and websites. |
| 10% VAT | Ley 37/1992, art. 91.Uno.2.10º | Renovation or repair of a home at least two years old, for an individual using it privately (not rented out) or a comunidad de propietarios, with materials costing no more than 40% of the price before VAT. Double glazing usually goes over that limit, and doors, windows or kitchen units supplied without fitting are always 21%. |
| Customer reviews | Consumer law (TRLGDCU), art. 20.4; Ley 3/1991, art. 27 | Say whether and how you check that reviews come from real customers. Since December 2025, reviews must relate to a job bought or used in the 30 days before the review; fake reviews have been banned since 2022. |
| Language | Consumer law (TRLGDCU), art. 60.4 | Pre-contract information, quotes included, must be given at least in Spanish. In Catalonia, customers can ask for offers, quotes and invoices in Catalan. |
Rules on quotes and complaint forms are regional, so check your comunidad autónoma's consumer office. This is general information as of September 2026, not legal advice.

What our clients say
On your website
What to put on your carpentry website
A homeowner who lands on your website wants to see quickly whether you do the kind of work they need, in their area, and how to reach you. These are the parts that answer those questions and make it easier for them to contact you. In a clean, uncluttered layout, close-up photos of joints, grain and the finish on a staircase or worktop show your craftsmanship before anyone picks up the phone.
A portfolio organised by project type
Kitchens, staircases, fitted wardrobes and bespoke furniture, grouped so a visitor looking for one type of work does not have to scroll past another. A good starting point is your own project photos: we build your site around them.
The areas you cover, stated clearly
Naming the towns you work in (Jávea, Torrevieja or Marbella, for example) helps both readers and Google understand who your site is for.
A quote request in one click
A form, WhatsApp button or phone number that a homeowner can use straight away, without hunting for your contact details.
Google reviews, shown honestly
As the rules above set out, your website must say whether and how you check that reviews come from real customers. If you show reviews from your Google Business Profile, add a short note saying they come from Google and whether, and how, you check them.

Your work
Which services should you highlight?
Grouping your services by type of job, rather than listing everything on one long page, helps a visitor find the right section faster.
Bespoke furniture and fitted wardrobes
Custom pieces built to a room’s exact dimensions are a different decision for a homeowner than a quick repair, so give them their own section.
Kitchen fitting
Units, worktops and installation: homeowners comparing kitchen fitters want to see finished projects before they get in touch.
Doors, windows and staircases
Smaller jobs bring in work between larger projects, so give them a clear place on your site too, and say whether you fit them yourself or work with a specialist installer.
Decking and garden carpentry
Decking, pergolas and other outdoor work are a different job from indoor carpentry, so show them apart from your kitchens and wardrobes, with a short caption naming the wood or material used.
Local search
How your website helps you appear in local searches
Getting found in your area is not only about the website itself: homeowners also post jobs on directories, ask around, or search directly for a trusted tradesperson nearby.
Basic SEO, included in your price
Titles and copy written around your trade and your area, kept consistent with your Google Business Profile, come with your website at no extra cost.
SEO Local and your Google listing, if you want more
We also offer SEO Local for €15 + VAT a month, and managing your Google Business Profile for €29 + VAT a month (€49 + VAT to set one up if you do not have a listing yet).
Guides to go further
Our blog has practical guides on ranking your website locally, optimising your Google Business Profile and getting more Google reviews.
What to avoid
Common mistakes on carpenter websites
These are the gaps that often make a carpenter’s website less effective.
- No project photos, or an unsorted gallery mixing every type of job
- No clear service area, so people cannot tell whether you cover their town
- No quick way to ask for a quote: a phone number buried in a footer, or no WhatsApp link
- An incomplete legal notice, missing the NIF or NIE that the LSSI requires
How we help you avoid them
Your website is built around your own photos, names your trade and the areas you cover in its titles and copy, and comes with a contact form, a WhatsApp button and legal pages (legal notice, privacy and cookies). You see it before you pay anything, you can ask for as many changes as you want before it goes live, and if you decide not to go ahead, you pay nothing.
Compare
Your own website compared to a directory listing
If you already get work through a trade directory, here is what changes once you also have your own website.
A directory listing
- Enquiries often go through the platform, not straight to you
- Homeowners post a job and receive quotes from several local tradespeople, yours among them
- You do not control the layout, or your own domain name
- Your contact details and project pictures live on someone else’s platform
Your own website
- Every enquiry goes directly to your email and WhatsApp
- Only your own portfolio and projects are shown, with no competitors on the same page
- Your own .es domain name, included for the first year
- Designed around your own images and the towns you cover
Behind the scenes
What runs behind your website
Alongside the pages people see, a few technical basics come with every website we build.
Hosting, SSL and daily backups
Your site includes hosting, an SSL certificate, daily backups and technical maintenance, so you do not have to think about the technical side.
Links to your social profiles
We add links to your Facebook, Instagram or other social profiles on the website, so visitors can also see the work you post there.
One change a month, included
Once your site is live, you can ask for one change a month at no extra cost: updating a price, adding new project pictures, or requesting other small changes.
Frequently asked questions
What must a carpenter's website in Spain show?
Under article 10 of the LSSI: your name, an address in Spain, email and other contact details, your NIF (your NIE if you are not Spanish), your Registro Mercantil details if you trade as a company, and whether any prices shown include VAT. Carpentry is not a regulated profession, so there is no Colegio number to add.
Do I have to give customers a written quote?
It depends on the region. In the Comunitat Valenciana, Madrid and Catalonia, homeowners are entitled to a detailed written quote before work starts, with set information such as materials, labour rates, dates and the total with VAT. They can only waive it in their own handwriting, with their signature (Valencia and Madrid prescribe the wording, such as “Renuncio al presupuesto previo y autorizo la reparación”). In Catalonia the quote is due whenever the customer can't work out the price themselves, and in Valencia you must be able to prove you offered one. Other regions have their own rules: a written quote is always the safe choice.
Can I charge 10% VAT on carpentry work?
Mainly for renovation or repair of a home: the customer is an individual using it privately (not rented out) or a comunidad de propietarios, the home is at least two years old, and the materials you supply cost no more than 40% of the price before VAT. The Tax Agency notes that double glazing usually exceeds that limit, and doors, windows, wardrobes or kitchen units supplied without fitting are always taxed at 21%. New-build or rehabilitation work contracted directly with the developer, including kitchen units and fitted wardrobes supplied and installed, can also be at 10%. The invoice should state the cost of materials, or that they don't exceed 40% of the price before VAT.
Do I need to register in the REA?
If you work as a contractor or subcontractor on a construction site where there is subcontracting, you must be registered in the REA, unless you're self-employed with no employees (Ley 32/2006). If you work directly for a homeowner, it only applies if you subcontract part of the job. There is no obligation to show an REA number on your website.
What do I need to do about complaints?
Let customers complain at least through the channel your contract with them started on, by post, by phone and by an electronic channel, and reply within 15 days at most: a national rule since 28 December 2025 (previously a month). Carry your region's official complaint forms. In Andalucía, businesses without premises must show a QR complaint poster on quotes, invoices and their website; in Madrid, if you have no premises open to the public, a notice that complaint forms are available goes wherever you make offers.
Can I show customer reviews on my website?
Yes, if you say whether and how you check them. Since December 2025, reviews must relate to a job done in the 30 days before the review, and adding or commissioning fake reviews has been banned outright since 2022.
Do my quotes have to be in Spanish?
Pre-contract information, including quotes, must be given at least in Spanish, so a bilingual quote is the safe choice even for British customers. Invoices can be in any language, although the Tax Agency may ask for a translation. Your website comes in English and Spanish, plus up to two more languages, at no extra cost.
How should I organise my project photos on the website?
Group them by type of job (kitchens, staircases, fitted wardrobes, doors) rather than in one long gallery, so a homeowner looking for a fitted wardrobe sees relevant work straight away. We use the photos on your Google Business Profile and any others you send us.
Do I need Google Business Profile management as well as a website?
No, it's optional. Your website already comes with basic SEO: titles and copy built around your trade and your area. If you want more, we also manage Google Business Profiles for €29 + VAT a month (€49 + VAT to set one up if you don't have one yet).
How much does a website cost?
€15 + VAT a month with no setup fee and no lock-in, or a one-off €349 + VAT, with the same services: design, hosting, a domain name for the first year, legal pages and one change a month. English and Spanish are included, and the demo is free.
Do I need my own website if I'm already on a trade directory?
You don't have to choose: keep the directory profile for extra enquiries, and use your own website as the place customers land when they search for your business by name, with your whole portfolio and a direct way to contact you.
How do homeowners usually find a carpenter or joiner?
Often by word of mouth, through a recommendation from family, friends or another trusted local tradesperson, and they may then look you up online before getting in touch. Others simply search for a joiner in their area. A website built around your own projects and service area helps in both cases: someone who heard about you can check your work there, and someone searching can find it.
Can I show before-and-after shots of a finished project?
Yes, before-and-after shots of a kitchen fitting or a finished staircase can help a homeowner compare carpenters, as long as they're genuine pictures from your own projects. We build your gallery around whatever pictures you send us.
What should I check before I start with a web design company?
Ask to see a working demo before you pay anything, and read the terms: is there a setup fee or a minimum contract, and is the domain name registered in your name? Then check that the demo shows your own work grouped by type of job, names the towns you cover and is easy to use on a phone.
Is a custom design better than a template for a carpenter's website?
What matters most is that the site shows your own work: your project photos grouped by type of job, the towns you cover and a quick way to contact you. We use our own system built from components we've already tested, and our team writes the copy and arranges the layout around your own details and photos. That is part of how we keep the price low, and you see the demo before you pay anything.
