Since our launch, GetBuilder has focused on a single mission: to make home improvements simple, secure, and stress-free by connecting homeowners with vetted, high-quality local professionals. As our platform has grown to support thousands of projects across the UK, we realized our visual brand needed to evolve to reflect our progress, technical updates, and core values.
Today, we are thrilled to officially unveil a new lick of paint for GetBuilder—introducing a completely updated visual identity, a sub-second search experience, and refined booking flows.
The design story: Building blocks of our new look
Our new branding is designed to be modern, friendly, and structured, reflecting the precision of the construction trades we support:
- The New Logo: We have replaced our old text mark with a geometric icon combining a stylized house gable with a forward-pointing path. This represents both the home and the smooth path of a successful construction project.
- Color Palette: Our new color system features a deep building charcoal base paired with a vibrant accent orange, representing energy, warmth, and high visibility (inspired by trade safety wear).
- Harmonious Typography: We have adopted clean, highly readable modern typography across our desktop and mobile interfaces, resolving layout issues and ensuring tables, fast facts, and checklists read beautifully.
Product upgrades: Under the hood changes
Our rebrand is more than skin-deep. We have rolled out significant performance upgrades to the GetBuilder platform:
- Sub-Second Builder Matching: We have rewritten our local search algorithm. When you search for a roofer, plumber, or electrician, the directory returns verified local results in under 100 milliseconds.
- Streamlined Quote Forms: We have redesigned our job post form to make it even easier to specify your project dimensions, budget, and upload photos directly from your phone.
- Continuous Vetting Monitor: We have integrated real-time checks with trade bodies and insurance registries, ensuring that the profile certifications and public liability credentials you see on GetBuilder are instantly verified.
- GetBuilder Mobile Apps: We have officially launched our native iOS and Android apps, allowing homeowners and tradespeople to chat, send images, and manage quotes on the go.
A note from our lead designer
"We wanted the new GetBuilder look to feel premium, clean, and reliable. Redecorating a brand is like plastering and painting a room—it requires preparation, the right base coats, and attention to detail. We are incredibly excited to share this update with our community."
