Side by side
Brickloom vs DIY builder vs agency.
Seven rows. General industry patterns vary by provider — Brickloom’s own prices and promises are the published ones on this site.
Starting price
Brickloom
From $299. Four published packages, one-time.
DIY builder
A monthly fee, billed for as long as you keep the site — plus your own time.
Custom agency
Often thousands of dollars, commonly with a deposit up front.
Time to launch
Brickloom
Most standard sites within 48 hours of receiving your details.

However many evenings it takes you.

DIY builder
Total freedom — and total responsibility.

Content and copy
Brickloom
You send your business details; we write and lay out the website content within your package scope.
DIY builder
You write every page yourself.
Custom agency
Copywriting is often a separate, added service.
SEO and contact features
Brickloom
Basic SEO setup, contact form, and integrations included.
DIY builder
Available, but you wire and maintain them.
Custom agency
Sometimes included, sometimes an added fee.
Hosting and ownership
Brickloom
You own the finished site and can host it anywhere. No lock-in.
DIY builder
Rented — you stay on their stack and pricing.
Custom agency
Often arranged and held by the agency.
Ongoing maintenance
Brickloom
Not included — that is how the price stays published.
DIY builder
Platform updates handled; content changes are yours.
Custom agency
Usually a monthly retainer.
What about bigger builds?
Substantial custom development is quoted separately.
E-commerce, logins, custom databases, or advanced booking and payment systems are scoped and quoted on their own terms. Gold is the deepest build within the scope we agree — not unlimited custom development.
Website examples
Demonstration builds and portfolio references.
Examples on this site are demonstration builds and portfolio references illustrating Brickloom’s capabilities — not client work.
