A-1 · Groundline Web · Valley Springs, CA
Built fromthe ground up.
Websites, call answering and ads for trades and service businesses in Calaveras County, Lodi and the Central Valley. We build it, answer for you and keep it working, for one monthly price.
How we build your site
-
Step 01
Survey
We look you up the way your customers do: on a phone, in Google, on Facebook. You get a one-page check with the three things costing you calls.
-
Step 02
Foundation
Your domain in your name, fast hosting, the padlock and backups. The parts nobody sees, set up right the first time.
-
Step 03
Framing
Every page is laid out for a phone first, 390 pixels wide, because that's where your customers find you.
-
Step 04
Walls and roof
Your services, your prices and photos of your real jobs, written the way you talk. No stock photos of strangers.
-
Step 05
Wiring
A call button on every screen, a quote form that takes photos, your Google profile set up to match, and a business number that texts back anyone you miss.
-
Step 06
Keys
Live about 10 to 21 business days after we have your photos. Then we keep it up: changes every month, updates, and a watch that it stays online.
Move-in ready.
That's the whole job, start to finish, and every month after. Want to see what yours could look like?
A-2 · Work
Real sites for real businesses.
Each one is built on the same foundation yours would be: fast on a phone, easy to call from, and written for the people who hire them.

Answer & Book's setup is paid in two halves: $400 at signing and $400 when it goes live. Plans include 1,000 texts and 1,000 call minutes a month, plus 300 AI-answered minutes on Answer & Book, Pro and Growth; we tell you before billing anything over. 12-month minimum from launch, then month to month with 30 days' notice. Add-ons: an extra page $149, a logo refresh $199, rush launch $300.

Pick a planA-4 · Questions
Straight answers.
Who owns the website?
You own your domain, logo, photos, text, your ad accounts and your customer list. We own the code and automations we build with. After the first 12 months you can buy the finished site files for two months of your plan, export your contacts and take your business number with you.
I already have a website. Can you just answer my phone?
Yes. That's Answer & Book. You keep your site and your phone number. Calls you don't pick up forward to a business number we set up, where the AI receptionist answers, takes the job details and books the estimate into your calendar. We add a booking link or chat box to your site, or send the code to whoever runs it. You pay a $400 deposit to start and the other $400 when it goes live. Want a new site from us later? Moving up to Pro is the $700 difference in setup.
What if I want to cancel?
The first 12 months from launch are the minimum. After that it's month to month, and you can cancel with 30 days' notice by email. There's no cancellation fee.
What if the ads don't work for me?
After the first 90 days of ads, you can step down from Growth to Pro with 30 days' notice. The ads stop and the Pro price applies. We never promise a number of leads, and we never raise your ad budget without your yes in writing.
What does the monthly price cover?
Everything in your plan's list: hosting, the security certificate, backups and a watch that your site stays up (on the website plans), your business number and texting, the AI assistant on Answer & Book, Pro and Growth, and your plan's changes each month: 30 minutes on Starter and Answer & Book, 1 hour on Pro, 2 hours on Growth.
Will the AI pretend to be me?
No. It says it's a virtual assistant for your business, tells callers the call may be recorded, takes the job details and texts you a summary. Emergencies, complaints and prices you haven't approved go straight to you.
How long does it take?
About 7 business days for Answer & Book, 10 for Starter, 14 for Pro and 21 for Growth, counted from when we have your photos and details.
Do I need professional photos?
No. Phone photos of real jobs work well. We'll tell you which ones to use and how to take a few more.
Will you put tracking on my site?
Only if you're on Growth and say yes: then we add Google or Meta tracking so we can see which ads bring calls, and your privacy policy says so first. Otherwise, no tracking pixels or analytics cookies.
Where do you work?
Calaveras County, Lodi and the Central Valley first. Most of the work happens by phone and email, so if you're farther out, ask.
