sample projects

Web design examples — what the finished thing looks like

Eight sample sites across four industries, each one showing the same pattern: what we usually find, and what we hand back. Every entry on this page is a demonstration we built ourselves — we would rather show you honest samples than borrow someone else's work.

What these samples are, and what they aren't

before you scroll

Read this first: we are new to the US market and we are not going to pretend otherwise. Everything below is a sample project built by us to demonstrate the standard of work — not client work, not a case study, and there are no customer names, logos or quotes on this page because we have not earned them yet. When there are real references, they will appear here with the customer's name on them and you will be able to click through to a live site. Until then, judge us on the samples and on the site you are reading.

Eight samples, four industries

Filter by the kind of business closest to yours. The structure of the site changes with the trade — a restaurant needs its menu and hours above everything, a contractor needs a call button and a service area.

Sample project Trades

Roofing contractor

Starting point
No website at all. A map listing with a phone number, four photos and no way to see which towns they cover.
What we built
A single strong page: what they do, the towns they serve, a call button pinned in the header, and a short quote form for people who won't phone.
The point
Someone with a leak decides in ten seconds. The page answers "do you cover me and can I reach you now" before anything else.
Sample project Trades

Electrical contractor

Starting point
A site from 2012 with a Flash header, a contact page behind three clicks, and no mobile version at all.
What we built
Same company, same trade, rebuilt: services split into domestic and commercial, license and insurance stated plainly, emergency number in the header.
The point
For a trade where trust decides the job, the credentials belong on the first screen, not on an "About" page nobody opens.
Sample project Hospitality

Neighborhood café

Starting point
The menu was a photo of a chalkboard. Opening hours lived only on a social profile and were three months out of date.
What we built
A readable menu page, today's hours on the front page, directions that open the map app in one tap, and a photo strip that doesn't take six seconds to load.
The point
Hospitality gets one question over and over: are you open and what do you have. Everything else is secondary.
Sample project Hospitality

Family restaurant

Starting point
A menu locked in a 4.8 MB PDF that phones refused to open, and a reservation process that meant calling during service.
What we built
The menu as real text on a real page, lunch and dinner separated, a reservation link straight to the tool they already pay for.
The point
A PDF menu is the single most common reason a restaurant loses a hungry visitor at 6pm on a phone.
Sample project Professional services

Accounting practice

Starting point
A site from 2011 with a stock photo of a handshake and no contact route except a fax number.
What we built
A clear list of services by client type, a short intake form, and a page saying what a first appointment involves and costs.
The point
People choosing an accountant are comparing three at once. The one who explains the first step wins the appointment.
Sample project Professional services

Physiotherapy clinic

Starting point
One page with an email address, no treatment list, no hours, and no way to know whether they took new patients.
What we built
Treatments explained in plain words, practitioners named, hours and parking spelled out, and a booking link to their existing system.
The point
Health services lose people to uncertainty. Answering the boring questions is what converts a visit into an appointment.
Sample project Retail

Independent bike shop

Starting point
Everything happened on social media. Nothing told a first-time visitor what brands they stocked or whether they did repairs.
What we built
A shop page with the ranges they carry, a service page with repair turnaround and prices, opening hours and a map.
The point
Not a shop — a shop window. The purchase still happens in the store, which is exactly what they wanted.
Sample project Retail

Florist

Starting point
A builder template still showing the sample text it shipped with, and delivery areas mentioned nowhere.
What we built
Occasions and price brackets up front, delivery zones and cut-off times stated, phone ordering made obvious for same-day requests.
The point
Most florist enquiries are urgent. Cut-off times and delivery areas are the two facts that decide the sale.

Before and after, side by side

The same business, the same facts, the same phone number — reorganized. Switch between the two views. This is a demo we built, not a real client's site.

What actually changed
  • The headline says what they do and where — not "this site is being updated".
  • Opening hours are stated. "Please call" is not an answer to "are you open".
  • The first action is booking, the second is calling. Both are one tap.
  • Treatments are named, so someone with a knee problem can see themselves in it.
  • The practical detail people actually worry about — parking — is on the front page.
  • Nothing was invented. Every fact came off the old site; it was just buried.

What yours would need from you

Roughly ten minutes of answers. Nothing here needs preparing in advance — if you don't have something, say so and we work around it.

your side of it
The basics Business name, address, phone, email, opening hours, and the area you actually serve.
What you do Your services in your own words. Bullet points are fine — turning them into readable pages is our job.
Anything visual A logo if you have one, photos of your work, your team or your premises. If you have none, we build a typographic layout instead — it still looks deliberate.
One preference Point at a website you like and say why. That single sentence saves more back-and-forth than a briefing document.

Yours would take seven days

Same standard as the samples above, built around your business instead of a made-up one. $999 once, $25 a month after it's live.
