Who is Agass Marketing Solutions? The 48-hour website draft agency

The offer in one line

Free website draft in 48 hours, pay only if you like it, and you own the site and domain. That is the agency's own positioning, and it is a sharper pitch than most trades web designers manage.

The published price for the finished site is £499 as a one-off, or £699 if you want it built on WordPress. Hosting and changes are an optional £30 a month with no contract. SEO and paid advertising are quoted separately.

For a sole trader who has been quoted £2,000 elsewhere, that will look attractive. For context on how it compares, see our ranking of trades agencies that publish prices.

Where it operates

The agency's stated territory is South West England, with Weston-super-Mare, Bristol and the wider Somerset area named. Oddly for a Somerset firm, the website shows a Dutch company registration. The site does not explain why, and we would simply ask.

Joseph Agass is named as the founder. No founding date is published, and there is no team page, so treat this as a founder-led operation until told otherwise.

What a website from Agass includes

According to its website, a trades site from Agass comes with service pages, area pages, reviews and a quote form. That is the right skeleton for a local trade: one page per service, one page per town, social proof, and a way to ask for a price.

Beyond the site, the agency offers Google and Meta paid ads and local SEO covering Google Business Profile, on-page work and citations. None of those carry a published price.

The trades it says it serves

The list is long: roofers, plasterers, carpenters and joiners, tree surgeons, tilers, fencing contractors, landscapers, plumbers and heating engineers, kitchen and bathroom fitters, locksmiths, window, door and conservatory fitters, air conditioning engineers and electricians.

The case studies narrow that somewhat. The agency publishes examples for heating and plumbing, fencing, roofline, locksmith and glazing, kitchens and bathrooms, and carpentry clients. Tilers and tree surgeons, for instance, appear on the trades list but not in the case study library.

That matters less for a £499 website than it would for a £1,500-a-month retainer. A good service-and-area-page site works much the same for a tiler as for a plumber. Tilers weighing their options can see our ranked agencies for tilers; joiners have a separate list for carpenters and joiners.

Questions before you say yes to the draft

The 48-hour draft is a low-risk way to see how the agency thinks. Use it as a test, not a formality.

Ask what the draft is built on and whether the £30 monthly fee is required to keep the site live, or whether you can move it to your own hosting. The agency says you own the site and domain, so moving it should be possible, but get the mechanics in writing.

Ask what the area pages will say. Thin town pages with the place name swapped in are common and increasingly ignored by Google. Ask to see a live example from the case study list.

Then, if you want ads or SEO on top, ask for the fee and the expected ad spend separately. The website price is clear; the retainer side is not, and that is where the real monthly cost sits. Our piece on why fixed-fee trades marketing is growing explains why that split matters.
