Is TheBuilt still a good construction theme in 2026?
Yes, with one caveat. TheBuilt from dedalx has 2,743 sales, and ThemeForest lists it as created 10 years ago. Its regular price is $59, and it was on sale for $56 as of 11 September 2026. Version 2.6.6 added WordPress 7 support in May 2026, and version 2.7 followed on 9 September 2026. You get 14 portfolio layouts, 20 header combinations and one-page or multi-page sites on WPBakery.
Best for: construction and architecture firms that want a long-maintained WPBakery theme with a flexible portfolio
With 2,743 sales and a 4.38 rating from 149 reviews, the TheBuilt WordPress theme targets construction, architecture and building businesses. Its author, dedalx, released version 2.7 on 9 September 2026. When we checked on 11 September 2026, it was on sale for $56, down from a regular $59.
Made for builders and architecture firms
TheBuilt covers the pages a construction company needs: services, projects, team and contact. In addition, it supports both one-page and multi-page sites. So a small contractor can start with a single scrolling page and grow later.
The package bundles WPBakery Page Builder with 12 custom theme elements, plus Slider Revolution with ready-made sliders. WooCommerce support also lets a firm sell products from the same site.
Portfolio and header options
Projects get 14 portfolio layouts, 8 hover animations and 18 category filter animations. For example, you can choose full-width or boxed grids with spaced or regular columns.
Headers are just as flexible. There are 20 header style combinations, sticky and transparent headers, a mega menu and an off-canvas menu. Ten predefined colour skins also give you quick starting points.

TheBuilt WordPress theme updates in 2026
ThemeForest lists TheBuilt as created 10 years ago, and it still gets updates. Version 2.6.6 added WordPress 7 support on 25 May 2026. Then version 2.7 fixed the Slider Revolution demo import on 9 September 2026. The Software Version field lists WordPress 7.0 as well.
However, the layouts still sit on Bootstrap 3, and the page builder is WPBakery rather than Elementor. Keep the rating in mind too. At 4.38, it trails Structure (4.63) and BuildPress (4.60) in our construction list.
