You're Looking At Our Work

We built this website for our own roof restoration business. Along the way we learned what it actually takes for a small local business to show up when someone nearby searches: fast pages, real photos, every town named, clear answers to the questions customers ask, and the setup behind the scenes that lets Google, Bing and the AI tools read it all properly.

The process behind it has been more than six months in the making. We built it, used it, and rebuilt the parts that didn't measure up, and we didn't do it alone: business advisors and partners in our industry reviewed the work along the way and pushed us to make it better.

Now we build the same kind of site for other small businesses. You get that whole process, a real person on the other end of the phone, and a website you own outright.

Your Business, Your Style

We don't sell templates. Every site is designed around your business and the look you want. Seen a site you love? Show us. Can't stand the look of the one you have now? Tell us what bugs you about it. From a simple one-page site to a full multi-page business site, we'll build it to your taste.

The Reel Havoc Charters website on a laptop and a phone, a sample build by Key City
Sample build · Campbell River, BC

Reel Havoc Charters

A bold, outdoorsy look for a husband-and-wife fishing charter, with trip pages, booking by email and articles on planning a day on the water.

The B2 Cabinets website on a laptop and a phone, a sample build by Key City
Sample build · Vancouver, BC

B2 Cabinets

A clean, classic look for a custom cabinet shop, with a services page, articles and a project enquiry form.

Neither one looks like the site you're on now, and that's the point.

When Someone Needs What You Do, They Search First

Whatever you have today, one clean, fast site that you own fixes it, with no monthly platform fee.

No Website

You're invisible to anyone who doesn't already know you, and word of mouth only reaches so far.

Facebook Page Only

Hard to find on Google, hard to read on a phone, and the AI tools people now ask don't read it at all.

An Old Site

Slow, out of date, costs you a monthly fee, and nobody remembers the login.

Every Site Is Built To The Same Standard

The package you pick only changes who puts the site online and who looks after it. The website itself is the same.

The Pages

  • Home: what you do, where, and real photos of your work
  • A page for each main service
  • About: you and your story, in your words
  • Gallery, when you have the photos for it
  • Contact: phone, email, hours, service area and a form
  • Articles: two or three starter pieces answering the questions your customers ask

Built In From Day One

  • Looks right on a phone first, then on a desktop
  • Fast: images sized properly, nothing bloated
  • Tap-to-call phone numbers and a working contact form
  • Search and AI setup done, not bolted on later
  • Your logo, your colours, your towns named throughout
  • Plain files you own: no platform, no monthly fee, no lock-in

Built So Google, Bing And AI Assistants Can Find You

More people now ask ChatGPT or Google's AI "who does this near me?" instead of scrolling through results. Those tools only recommend businesses they can read properly, so every site we build ships with that groundwork done.

Search Engines

Registered with Google and Bing, sitemap submitted, and every page titled and described.

AI Answers

Structured data and plain-language answers on every page, so AI tools can quote you correctly.

Google Business Profile

Set up to match the site exactly: hours, services, towns served and photos. That's what puts you on the map.

Reviews

We show you how to ask for Google reviews and reply to them. It's the biggest lever, and only you can pull it.

Two Ways To Get Your Site, One Way To Keep It Looked After

Package 1

Site In A Box

$750

One payment · regular $900

We build the whole site and hand it over with a plain-language guide, written for you, on how to put it online. You run it from there.

  • Complete website: pages, articles, photos and form
  • Changes until you're happy, before handover
  • Step-by-step guide to going live
  • You set up the domain, hosting and listings with the guide
Package 3 · Add-On

Care Plan

$79/mo

Cancel any time · regular $99

For owners who never want to touch the site. Add it to either package.

  • Small edits you send: hours, prices, photos, wording
  • One new local article every month
  • Google and Bing profiles kept matching your site
  • New reviews flagged with a suggested reply for you to post
  • A monthly health check and a short note of what changed

No Deposit. Nothing To Pay Until You Approve It.

Nothing is charged until you've seen your finished site on a preview link and approved it. Site in a Box is paid in full on approval. Done For You is half on approval and half once your site is live and checked. The Care Plan is billed monthly, starting the month after your site goes live.

Your domain name (about $15 to $30 a year) is registered and paid by you, in your name. Brand-new pages or features after launch are quoted before any work starts.

Four Steps, And Most Of The Work Is Ours

We never invent facts about your business. If we don't have it from you, it's left out or flagged for you to confirm, not guessed.

1

Tell Us About Your Business

A short intake form: what you do, your services, the towns you serve, phone, email, hours, and your logo and photos. About ten minutes.

2

We Build The Whole Site

Every page, the articles and the search setup, plus a measured quality check on speed, phone layout, links and markup. You'll normally see a preview within a day or two.

3

Changes Until It's Right

Review the preview and tell us what to change. Changes are quick for us, so send as many rounds as you need before launch. We re-check the site after each one.

4

Go Live

Site in a Box: you follow the guide. Done For You: we set it all up with you and hand over the live address and an accounts checklist.

You Own Everything. No Hostage Websites.

The domain, hosting, contact form and Google profile are all registered to you, with your email and your card. We're added as a helper, never the owner.

Your site is plain files. Any web person can work on it, and you can move it to another host any time without asking us.

Gonano Contractor? We Sell What You Sell.

We're a certified Gonano contractor ourselves. We quote the roofs, we spray them, and we built this site, so you won't have to explain the product to your web person.

What Network Contractors Get

  • Product pages for the lines you carry (NuRoof, Revive, Fortify, Concrete Saver, Wood Saver), in homeowner language
  • Claims and warranty wording Gonano is comfortable with, never stronger
  • Short local versions of Gonano's own articles, each linking back to the original
  • Your before-and-after photos and certified-contractor badge, front and centre

Good To Know

  • Same packages and the same process as every other client
  • You talk to Jeff directly, not an account manager

Key City Surface Solutions is an independent certified Gonano contractor. Gonano does not sell, endorse or stand behind this web service.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a small business website cost?

Site in a Box is $750 and Done For You is $1,450, one time. The optional Care Plan is $79 a month. Your only other cost is your domain name, about $15 to $30 a year, paid in your name.

Do I have to pay a deposit?

No. Nothing is charged until you have seen your finished site on a preview link and approved it. Site in a Box is paid in full on approval. Done For You is half on approval and half once your site is live and checked.

How long does it take to build a website?

You will normally see a preview of your whole site within a day or two of a complete intake form. After that the pace is yours: changes come back quickly, Site in a Box clients get the files and the guide as soon as they approve, and Done For You clients go live in a call of about 45 minutes.

How many changes can I ask for?

As many as it takes before launch. Changes are quick for us, so we would rather get your site right than count rounds. Brand-new pages or features after launch are quoted before any work starts, and Care Plan clients can send small edits any time.

Can you match a style I like, or redo the site I have now?

Yes. Send us a few sites you like, or tell us what you don't like about the one you have, and we will design around it. Every site is built for the business it belongs to, not dropped into a template.

Who owns the website and the domain?

You do. The domain, hosting, contact form, Google Business Profile and Bing Places are registered in your name with your email. We are added as a manager where we need to be, and you can remove that access any time. The website files are yours outright.

Will my website show up on Google and in AI answers?

Every site is built for it: registered with Google and Bing, structured data on every page, and a Google Business Profile that matches the site. Nobody can honestly guarantee rankings, and reviews from your own customers make the biggest difference, so we show you how to ask for them.

Can I make changes after my site is live?

Yes. On the Care Plan you send us small edits and we take care of them each month. Without it, the site is plain files that any web person can work on, and larger changes like new pages are quoted before any work starts.

Do you work with businesses outside the East Kootenay?

Yes. We are based in Cranbrook, BC, and work with businesses across Canada and the US. Everything runs by phone and email.
