Website Design
A website for a trade, contracting or landscaping business. Built to be found, read on a phone, and turn a visit into a quote request. Handed over with the keys.

Why your business needs a proper website
Word of mouth still brings the lead. The lead still checks your site before they call. If what they find is a phone number and a photo from 2016, you lose jobs you never knew were on the table. Eight reasons it matters:
01.
Every referral gets checked online first
02.
Google Maps needs somewhere to send people
03.
Reviews need a home
04.
Your visitors are on a phone
05.
The site does the explaining so you don't have to
06.
Your quote gets compared to your website
07.
A form beats a missed call
08.
It's yours, and it keeps working

The build
What's in the build
Every site is a variation on the same parts. Here is what they are and why each one is there, so you can judge a build, this one or anyone else’s, on more than how it looks. Behind this page are two builds: Greg & Sons, a landscaping and contracting company that booked $74,000 in net revenue after a five-page rebuild, and a Muskoka landscaping company rebuilt on six service pages. The Greg & Sons case study has the full story. The parts, one at a time:
One page per service:
A page for each thing you sell, not one page that lists everything. Someone searching for interlock wants an interlock page, and Google feels the same way. Each page carries its own photos, its own questions and its own way to ask for a quote.
Copy written for the customer:
Plain words, in the order a homeowner thinks about the job. What it is, what it costs to get wrong, what to expect, how to get a quote. No jargon and no filler. Written so someone who has never hired a contractor can read it and know what to do next.
Photos of your actual work:
Stock photos of a smiling crew in matching shirts tell a visitor nothing. Your own jobs, shot on a phone in good light, tell them everything. The build is planned around the photos you have, and around the ones you need to take next.
Built for the phone first:
Laid out for a thumb before a mouse. Big tap targets, the phone number one tap away, forms that don’t fight the keyboard. The desktop version is the bonus, not the starting point.
Fast:
Slow pages get abandoned before they load, and Google notices. Images are sized for the web, nothing loads that isn’t needed, and the site gets checked on a real phone on a real mobile connection, not just on office wifi.
A quote form worth filling in:
A form that asks for what a quote needs: the job, the address, a photo, a rough timeline. Enough that you can reply with a real number instead of a round of phone tag. Every enquiry lands in your email, so nothing depends on remembering to check a dashboard.
Wired to Google Maps and your reviews:
Your Google Business Profile points at the site and the site points back. Your best reviews sit on the pages where they do the most good. Neither is a separate project; both are part of a site that’s finished.
Launched on your own accounts:
The site is launched on your own account and your own domain, not on somebody else’s. You can log into both. Nothing about the site depends on the person who built it.

How it runs
The four stages
01
Step
01
Discovery
What you do, where you work, which jobs you want more of, and what's wrong with the site you have now. Photos, reviews and logos get collected here so the build isn't waiting on them later.

Structure
The page list, what goes on each page and in what order, and where the form and phone number sit. Agreed on paper before anything is designed, because moving a section on paper is free and moving it later isn't.

Copy, photos, mobile layout, forms and speed. You review it on a private link on your own phone, not in a meeting room, because that's where your customers will see it.
