Logos and branding for contractors
LOGOS & BRANDING BUILT FOR CONTRACTORS
Homeowners judge your work by how your business looks long before they see a job. We design logos and brand kits for contractors that look established on your truck, your signs, your website and your business cards, and every file is yours to keep.
- Custom logo, never a template
- Colours and fonts that work everywhere
- Business card design included
- Every file you need, yours to keep
Before 
After The reality
What a $50 logo really costs you
Nobody hires a contractor because of a logo. Plenty of people skip one because of it.
-
You look new, even when you're not
Twenty years of experience and a clip-art hammer. Homeowners read polish as proof that you'll show up, finish the job and still be around for the warranty.
-
It falls apart at small sizes
Your Google profile photo is a thumbnail. Your truck is seen from across the street at 50 km/h. Thin lines and long taglines disappear at both.
-
Nothing matches
One logo on the truck, another on the website, a third on the invoice. It looks like three different companies, and none of them look sure of themselves.
-
You end up competing on price
When you look like everyone else, price is the only thing left to compare. A brand that looks established earns the benefit of the doubt on a higher quote.
Where it has to work
Your brand shows up in more places than you think
We design and check the logo at every size it will be used, from the side of a truck to a tiny profile photo.
-
Trucks and trailers
Readable from across the street, with your name, trade and phone number in the right order.
-
Lawn and job-site signs
Simple enough to recognize at a glance while someone drives past your job.
-
Shirts, hats and hi-vis
Versions that embroider and print cleanly on dark and bright fabric.
Also part of it
-
Cards, estimates and invoices Business cards plus templates so every piece of paper you hand over matches. -
Website and Google A square version for your Google profile and social media, and colours that work on screen. -
Ads and social posts Colours and fonts that make your ads and posts recognizable before anyone reads your name.
Case study · Beyond The Brush Painters
We built Sunny's brand from scratch. Eight booked jobs followed.
- 8jobs booked from Google Ads
- 20days from website launch
- 7Xreturn on ad spend
Beyond The Brush had no name on anything. We built the logo around the name: a paint brush sweeping over a line of mountains, with "Vancouver, BC" in the badge, on navy, teal and orange so it stands out on a lawn sign and still reads as clean and calm inside a home. Then we carried it through the business cards, the van, the website and the ads. Twenty days after the website launched, Google Ads had booked 8 jobs at a 7X return.
I'm very happy with service from Debut Marketing. Evan is very professional, responsive, and has been great helping grow my painting business online. I really appreciate their communication and the effort they put into our marketing. Highly recommend!

T City Developments builds duplexes and multiplexes for owners making the biggest financial decision of their lives. The new identity is a T built from two columns beside the name in wide capitals: architectural, calm and serious. It anchors the website that went from #97 to #4 on Google for "Vancouver duplex builders" in 30 days.
Debut made us a great website and got our construction company ranking locally. Couldn't be happier with the results

Evan made it very easy and simple to design the perfect website for my construction company. All within a great budget and timeline. Evan followed up after few weeks to even make better improvements to the site for free. Highly recommend!! Thanks Evan.

A brand is worth it when you plan to be around
You're a good fit if
- You're starting out and want to look established from day one
- Your work has outgrown the logo you made when you started
- You're about to wrap a truck, order signs or build a website
- You want every piece of your business to look like one company
We're not a fit if
- You need something by tomorrow for $50
- You want a copy of a competitor's logo
- You won't use it on anything but an invoice
Need a website and Google profile too? The Foundation Package includes the logo, brand kit and business cards.

Branding questions
Can't see your question? Send it with the form below or call 604-626-3100. We reply within 24 hours.
Start your brandHow much does a contractor logo cost?
Our Starter Kit is $1,600 one time: a fully custom logo, easy-to-use design files and a business card design. The Growth Kit is $3,600 and adds a full brand kit, a brand guidelines document and full content rights.
Why not just get a logo on Fiverr?
You can, and for some businesses it's enough. What you usually get is a template tweaked for you, in one or two file types, never tested on a truck or a Google thumbnail. A brand that makes you look established pays for itself the first time it wins a job at your price instead of the lowball's.
How long does it take?
It depends mostly on how quickly you give feedback on the concepts. We give you a timeline on the first call. For Beyond The Brush, the brand was the first piece of a 45-day build that ended with 8 booked jobs.
Can you refresh my existing logo instead of starting over?
Yes. If your current logo has something worth keeping, like a colour people know or a mark on your trucks, we'll build on it. We'll tell you honestly on the call whether a refresh or a new start makes more sense.
What files do I get?
Easy-to-use design files for print, signs, your website and social media. The Growth Kit adds a brand guidelines document so your sign shop and printer get it right every time.
Do I own the logo?
Yes. The design files are yours, and the Growth Kit includes full content rights in writing.
