Website renovation · Langley, British Columbia
Two things win local work online: looking like the obvious choice, and being the easiest to call. Most sites manage neither. We build for both.
We show you the damage first, in writing, then quote the fix.
Who we build for
Lawyers, accountants and clinics as readily as roofers and restaurants. Different buyers, different fears, different pages. Here are thirteen of them, and the one thing every single one starts with.
Convince somebody in a bad week that calling you is safe. Fees explained, reviews visible, phone first.
02
They are handing you their money and their filings. The site has to look like somewhere that will still be here next April.
03
The listings are already on the board. Your site decides whether they want you standing beside them at the offer.
04
One visitor is calmly comparing three clinics. The other is in pain at nine at night. One site, both answered.
05
Nobody buys from your site. They check it before a meeting you already have, to see whether you are the real thing.
06
The platforms can lock you out tomorrow. The site and the list are the only parts of this you actually own.
07
Menu, hours, location, and photos that look like your food. Never a PDF menu again.
08
The decision to book happens at ten at night, on a couch. Take the booking there or lose it to whoever did.
09
Nobody joins on a Tuesday afternoon. Show the schedule, price the first visit, and stop hiding the room.
10
People check you are open before they drive over. Hours, parking and a map link beat a cart nobody uses.
11
Your work is the marketing. Real job photos, a quote path that rings your phone, a named service area.
12
A trust business more than a car business. Publish a starting price and answer the question about the wait.
13
Two audiences, one site. Shippers need lanes and equipment. Drivers search your name before they apply.
Not on the list
Most of what we build never makes it onto a list like this. Tell us what you do and you get a custom quote, one number in writing, or a straight no if we are not the right shop for it.

The same engine, on your real address. Thirty seconds, no email, nothing stored.
When someone asks ChatGPT or Google's AI who to call, the answer comes from what your site says and how it says it. Answer engine optimisation is the work of being that answer, and it is built into every renovation.

The ship of Theseus
A two thousand year old question: swap out every board and is it the same ship? For a business, yes. The name, the number, the reputation and the customers are the ship. Everything else we rebuild, plank by plank down to the keel, and your site keeps taking calls the entire time we do it.
Five parts
Hover any sail, or tab through them, to see which part of the build it stands for.
Services and pricing
You get the number after the free inspection and before any work begins. It does not move unless you ask for something new. No dollar figures on this page on purpose: the quote is built from what the inspection actually finds on your site.
Launch pricing. Half off until our first ten builds are done.
Your site is fine. It just has three things quietly costing you calls.
Fixed quote
Keep the business, rebuild the site. Same ship, every plank new.
Fixed quote
Nothing worth keeping. New structure, new everything, built from zero.
Custom quote
No site, no domain, no business email. We set the whole thing up and hand you the keys.
Fixed quote
Getting found
The build fixes what happens after someone lands on your site. This is the part that gets them there. Month to month, cancel whenever, no lock-in.
Google Business Profile managed. Posts and photos kept current, review requests set up, listings matched across the web.
See what this includesRank for the searches that make the phone ring, in Google and in the AI answers people now ask instead. A page per service, written for how people actually search. Answer engine optimisation, so ChatGPT and Google's AI name you. Plain monthly report, no jargon.
See what this includesYou serve a region, not a street. Everything in Local SEO, plus a real page per city you serve, built from a generator and kept consistent.
See what this includesAdvertising and video
Search takes months to compound. Ads and video work now. We run both, and we run them so you can see exactly what each call cost.
Written, built and watched every week. Your ad budget is paid straight to Google or Meta, never through us, so you always see the real number. Pause or stop any month.

Flat monthly · budget paid direct
The single biggest gap between a local site and a national one is not budget, it is photography. We come out, shoot your actual work, and cut it into everything the site and the ads need.
Fixed quote · half or full day
We will say so if that is where you are. The inspection tells us in 30 seconds, and fixing the site first is usually the cheaper half of the job.
Why Web Reno
Four reasons that are checkable rather than claimed, and an honest look at the three other things you could do with the money.
The inspection runs on your real address and every finding is something you can verify yourself. We publish the fix for each one so you can do it without us. Nothing on this page asks you to take our word for it.
A page we build is 20 to 60 KB. The same page from a drag-and-drop builder is usually over 250 KB of code nobody uses. Speed decides both your ranking and whether a thumb waits for you.
You call, you get Anthony, who builds it. No account manager in between, nothing outsourced overnight to a shop you never hear from, and one person to hold to a deadline.
Domain, code, accounts, photos, every login. We do not hold anything hostage to a monthly fee. Worth asking anyone you hire, because the answer is often no.
| Web Reno this shop | Do it yourself Wix, Squarespace | A full agency 10 to 60 people | The cheapest quote offshore or a friend | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Who builds it | The person who answers the phone | You, on evenings and weekends | A junior, reviewed by a senior | Usually someone you never speak to |
| If something goes wrong | Little to go wrong: no plugins, no database. And you are one text away | A help centre article | A ticket, then an account manager | This is the risk you are buying |
| Speed on a phone | 20 to 60 KB, scored before launch | Whatever the template ships | Good, if it is in the brief | Rarely measured at all |
| Who owns it | You. Domain, code, every account | You rent it, monthly, forever | Usually you, worth checking | Often whoever registered it |
| Changing a price | Same day, no charge on a care plan | Ten minutes, if you remember how | A change request and a fee | Depends if they still reply |
| Pick this one when | You want it done properly once, and then you want to stop thinking about it | You genuinely enjoy fiddling with it, and what you need is simple | You have a marketing department and a budget with six figures in it | Your budget is honestly zero and anything beats nothing |
Three of those four are the right answer for somebody. We will tell you if one of them is the right answer for you.

And if you want a person instead of a machine
The scanner gives you a number in thirty seconds. The hand audit is Anthony reading every page you have and writing it up, worst thing first. Every finding comes with the steps to fix it written out next to it, plain enough to hand to any developer, or to do yourself on a Sunday. It is free, same as the scan, and there is nothing to sign. Here is a page out of a real one.
Back in one to two business days. Yours to keep, whoever you end up hiring.
No email required. Nothing is stored.
Type your address, get your score out of 100 and every finding behind it in about 30 seconds.
Yours to keep, whoever you hire
Every finding comes with the fix written out. Plenty of people fix three things themselves and never call. That is a fine outcome.
Option one · by hand
Most people pick thisRather have a person go through it than a machine? One quick call books it in. Then I go through your whole site, your Google listing and your competitors by hand, and you get it back in one to two business days as a written report, a meeting to walk you through it, or both, whichever suits you. Free, same as the scan. No obligation either way.
The instant scan runs 20 checks, and only on your homepage. By hand I read every page, and the things that cost you the most work are usually the ones a scanner structurally cannot see.

No email · no cardType your address and get a score out of 100 with every finding behind it, in about 30 seconds. Twenty checks on your homepage, and the fix for each one written out. No email address, no credit card, no sign up. Nothing is stored.

Every finding names the fix, in plain English, whether or not you hire us. If the scan says your site is fine, we tell you that and you keep your money.
The scan reads your homepage live. The free hand audit covers the rest of the site, your Google listing and your competitors.
Your site gets copied to hundreds of servers around the world, so it loads instantly whether the customer is in Aldergrove or Australia.
Why any of this matters
“Your website is the only part of your business open at two in the morning. It speaks for you when you cannot.”
Web Reno is a small shop in Langley, not an agency with an account manager between you and whoever touches your site. When you call, you get the person who builds it.

Three very different operations, one thing in common. None of them wanted a website. They wanted people to turn up.
“I had been sold before, so I was expecting to be sold again. Instead I got a site that finally looks like the firm, and we climbed into the three map results for the searches people in Surrey actually type. That is where the calls come from.”
“We were running events and telling the same few hundred people every time. Now there is one place to point at, the events turn up in search on their own, and the follower count has not stopped climbing since.”
“Everything in my studio is chosen. The lighting, the music, even the towels. The ads were not going up unless they met that standard, and they did. They bring me the clients I actually want, and the revenue has gone up every month since.”
We do not run a wall of anonymous five star quotes. Every one of these is a real client who will take a phone call from you before you hire us, and we will give you the number.
The shop is in Langley. Across Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley a coffee and a look at your actual counter beats a video call.
Our Eastern Canada side is run out of Toronto, which means the same in-person build across the GTA. Everywhere else in Canada we work remotely, and we say so rather than renting an address and pretending.

One number.
In writing.
Old pages keep earning while new ones get built beside them.
LIVE
Flipped in an evening. Nothing goes down, and every old address still lands somewhere right.
Run it on anything
Stripe scores 72, because a company worth a hundred billion dollars still ships a 3.7 MB image to your phone. Vercel scores 91. A gallery twenty minutes from here scores 48: number in plain text, 1.3 MB of photos, hours Google has been guessing at for years.
The scan does not care who you are. Neither do we.
What is actually on it
Every page listed by name. What gets rebuilt, what gets left exactly as it is, what gets written from scratch. The date it goes live. One number at the bottom.
No hourly rate. No discovery phase. No change order buried on page four that turns four thousand into seven.
How you watch it happen
A private link that updates as we work, so you see the homepage before the footer exists. Your live site keeps taking calls the entire time. If you hate the hero on Tuesday it is different on Wednesday.
A 195 page law firm build came together exactly this way, in public, page by page.
What switching really involves
Every old address mapped to its new equivalent before anything moves, so a five year old Google result still lands on a real page instead of a dead end. That mapping is the single most common way a rebuild goes wrong.
We flip it after close. Most owners find out it happened when they wake up.
Run the instant scan yourself, or ask and we go through the whole site, your Google listing and your competitors by hand. Both are free, and the findings are yours either way.
Run it nowOne number with exactly what is included. It does not move unless you ask for something new. Decide with nobody chasing you.
Your current site keeps working the whole time. You watch the new one take shape on a private link, page by page, and say what you think as it goes.
We flip it live after hours. Nothing goes down, nothing gets lost, and every old address still lands somewhere right so your Google results keep working.
