Average Cost of a Website Redesign: 2026 Breakdown

September 14, 2026

Floating range bar chart of average website redesign cost by annual revenue, from $3,000 to $9,000 for businesses under $250,000 up to $70,000 to $150,000+ for $5M to $10M businesses, with the lowest tier highlighted in cyan.

From August 2025 through September 2026, our research team compiled website redesign pricing from published agency guides, freelance and boutique rate cards, and industry benchmark reports covering more than 40 web design and development firms across the U.S. and Canada.

This report answers what a small or midsize business typically pays to redesign a website, and how that cost changes by business size, project scope, and industry. In the sections below, we break down each of those benchmarks. For most small and midsize businesses, redesign projects land between roughly $3,000 and $75,000, while businesses in the $5M-$10M revenue tier should plan for $70,000 to $150,000 or more. Enterprise builds can run well past that range.

$5M-$10MFull-service agency60+ pages$70,000-$150,000+
The data shows that redesign budgets track complexity more than revenue alone. A $10 million company with a five-page service site can spend less than a $600,000 store with hundreds of SKUs. Revenue is still a useful proxy, because larger businesses usually carry more pages and more integrations by the time they redesign. Once custom booking, CRM, gated content, or multi-location setups enter the scope, cost rises faster than page count alone would predict.

Average Cost of a Website Redesign by Project Scope

The table below breaks down average cost ranges for the main components of a website redesign, along with what typically pushes each line item up or down.

Project ComponentAverage Cost RangeWhat Drives the Range
Sitemap & IA planning$500-$2,500Page count, number of stakeholder review rounds
Existing brand/content audit$1,000-$5,000Audit depth, page count, accessibility scope
UX/UI design (page templates)$3,000-$15,000Number of unique templates, custom vs. themed
Responsive front-end development$5,000-$25,000+Framework choice, custom interactions, breakpoints
Content migration & copywriting$100-$300 per pagePage count, full rewrite vs. migrate-as-is
CMS setup & integrations$2,000-$20,000+Platform, number of third-party integrations
SEO redirect mapping$1,000-$5,000URL count, backlink and ranking complexity
Accessibility (WCAG) compliance$1,500-$5,000, plus $350-$550 per page to fixCompliance level required, page count
The data finds that most quotes bundle these pieces, but splitting them shows where the money actually goes and which work can wait for a later phase. Content migration and accessibility are the two line items most often underbid. Both scale with page count, so a low page estimate at the sitemap stage often turns into a change order later.

Average Cost of a Website Redesign by Industry

The table below spans 22 small-business-heavy industries across services, retail, food and hospitality, trades, and professional services. Figures are directional estimates built from published agency and industry pricing data, not a single hard survey, because per-industry redesign pricing is not tracked as consistently as overall market ranges.

IndustryAverage Redesign Cost RangePrimary Cost Driver
E-Commerce / DTC Retail$15,000-$75,000Product catalog, payment gateway, inventory sync
Real Estate Brokerages$15,000-$45,000IDX/MLS integration, dynamic listings, map search
Boutique Hotels & B&Bs$10,000-$30,000Booking engine, live availability, photo galleries
Financial & Wealth Advisory$10,000-$30,000Compliance-reviewed content, secure client portals
Personal Injury & Legal Services$8,000-$25,000Case-result galleries, intake forms, competitive local SEO
IT Services & MSPs$8,000-$25,000Service-tier pages, case studies, lead-gen funnels
Specialty Food & Grocery Retail$8,000-$25,000Online ordering, delivery/pickup integration
Dental Practices$8,000-$20,000Patient portals, online scheduling
General Contracting & Design-Build$8,000-$20,000Project portfolios, estimate/lead-capture forms
Veterinary Clinics$6,000-$18,000Appointment scheduling, pharmacy add-ons
Independent Boutique Apparel$6,000-$18,000Product catalog, lookbook galleries
Roofing Contractors$6,000-$16,000Before/after galleries, financing tools
Accounting & Tax Preparation$5,000-$15,000Secure client portals, document upload tools
HVAC Contractors$5,000-$15,000Service-area pages, financing calculators
Plumbing Services$5,000-$15,000Emergency-service CTAs, local service-area pages
Fitness Studios & Gyms$5,000-$15,000Class scheduling, membership portals
Electricians$5,000-$14,000Service-area pages, licensing/certification display
Hair Salons & Day Spas$4,000-$12,000Online booking, service menus, gift-card sales
Landscaping & Lawn Care$4,000-$12,000Seasonal service pages, quote-request tools
Auto Repair Shops$4,000-$10,000Service menus, online scheduling
Restaurants (Full-Service)$3,000-$10,000Menu updates, reservation platform integration
Coffee Shops & Cafes$3,000-$8,000Online ordering integration, location pages
The data indicates that e-commerce sits at the top because a store redesign usually touches the catalog, checkout, payment gateway, shipping rules, and inventory sync at once, and each piece has to ship without breaking a live sales channel. Service businesses cluster closer together. Their ranges mainly move with ticket size, how often customers buy, and how much of the sale happens on the site versus offline.

Auto Repair Shops$4,000-$10,000
Landscaping & Lawn Care$4,000-$12,000
The data points to a simple pattern: these sites need fewer pages and less dynamic content. A menu, hours, location, and contact form often cover most of what customers need. Template-friendly layouts usually skip custom booking systems, licensing displays, and heavy compliance reviews. Buyers also decide more on proximity, hours, and reviews than on a long online comparison process, so the site can stay lean.

Where Redesigns Run Most Expensive

Financial & Wealth Advisory$10,000-$30,000
The data makes clear that the expensive group shares live data and higher stakes. Property listings, room availability, and product inventory need integrations, not static pages. Payment handling, financial disclosures, and sensitive client data add security, compliance, and testing time. These businesses also sell higher-ticket offers, so the site has to do more of the education, trust-building, and conversion work before a sale closes.
