Web Design& Development
New sites, redesigns and monthly care. We build sites that load fast on a phone, work for everyone who visits, and that you can update yourself.
New websites
A site that answers the questions customers call about.
Hours, prices, how to order, where to park. We start with what your customers ask, then build the pages that answer it.
Listen
What customers ask, what you sell and what you want visitors to do.
Plan the pages
A simple map of pages and the words on them, agreed before any design.
Build
Designed, written and tested on phones, with a keyboard and with a screen reader.
Launch
We connect your domain, launch it and walk you through updating it yourself.
Every site includes
01Mobile
Mobile-first layout
Designed for the phone first, because that's where most visitors are.
02WCAG 2.2
Accessibility built in
Built and tested to WCAG 2.2 AA from the start, not patched on later.
03Contact
Contact & booking that work
Forms, booking and ordering that reach you, tested before launch.
04Search
Search basics
Page titles, descriptions, a sitemap and your Google Business Profile linked.
05Domain
Domain, SSL & hosting
Set up properly, in your name, with renewals tracked.
06Handover
A walkthrough
We show you how to change hours, photos and menus yourself.
Redesigns
Keep what works. Fix what doesn't.
We start from your free check, so a redesign fixes real problems, not just the look.
- ClaritySay what you do and where you are in the first screen
- ActionOne clear button for the thing customers came to do
- ContentRewrite pages that only made sense to you
- PlatformMove to one you can edit, if yours is holding you back
Before: a tiny centered logo, a slideshow, and a vague welcome message in faint text. After: a clear headline, opening hours and pickup times, and an Order for pickup button.

A monthly plan for sites we build and sites you already have.

Monthly health check

FAQ
Questions we hear
Which platform will you use?
Whatever fits. Often that's Squarespace, Wix, Shopify or WordPress, so you can edit it yourself. When you need more, we build a custom site.
Can you work on the site I already have?
Yes. Many projects are updates and fixes, not rebuilds. The free check tells us where to start.
Will I own my site?
Yes. Your domain, hosting and site are in your name, and you have the logins.
How long does a new site take?
It depends on the number of pages and how quickly the content comes together. You get a schedule with the quote.
What does care & upkeep cost?
A flat monthly fee, quoted with the site or after a look at the site you have.
Free · no obligation
