How much does a website redesign cost?

We work to fixed prices, not hourly billing, so you know the cost before we start. Websites begin at £477 for a Starter build, with Growth and Complete options for larger sites. Care plans start at £27 a month, and bigger rebuilds or SEO work are quoted per project so the figure always fits the job.

How long does a website redesign take?

Most sites go live in three to six weeks, depending on how many pages you need and how quickly content and photos come together. Every build includes a simple admin panel so you can make edits yourself, plus 30 days of aftercare once you're live.

Will a redesign really double my enquiries?

Honestly, no one can guarantee that, and you should be wary of anyone who does. What we can say is that most small-business sites lose enquiries in the same few places — slow loading, an unclear message, a hidden phone number — and fixing those tends to lift how many visitors get in touch, sometimes substantially.

Will I lose my Google rankings if I redesign?

Not if it's done carefully. Keeping your page structure sensible and putting proper redirects in place protects the rankings you already have, and a cleaner, faster site often performs better over time. Pairing the redesign with local SEO is the safest way to come out ahead rather than behind.

Do I own the website after it's built?

Yes. You own the site, the domain and your data from day one — there's no lock-in and nothing held hostage. A care plan is available if you'd like us to handle updates and backups, but it's your choice, not a condition.

How a Website Redesign Can Double Your Enquiries

By Mohammad Javad Samadi·6 January 2026·5 min read

If your phone has gone quiet, the first instinct is usually to spend more on ads. Often the cheaper fix is the website itself. This is how a website redesign can double your enquiries: not through a clever trick, but by removing the small frictions that quietly push visitors towards a competitor. When your pages load quickly, say the right thing in the first few seconds and make the next step obvious, more of the people already finding you actually get in touch.

Doubling isn't a guarantee, and honest people won't promise it — it depends entirely on where you start. A dated site that hides your phone number and takes six seconds to load has plenty of room to improve; a tidy, modern one has less. But most small-business sites leak enquiries in the same handful of places, and those places are very fixable.

A quiet website is usually a design problem, not a traffic problem

It's tempting to blame Google or a slow market when the work dries up. Before you accept that, look at what happens after someone lands on your site. If a hundred people visit this month and two get in touch, you may not need more visitors — you need more of those hundred to act. Nudging that from two in a hundred to four is, in plain terms, doubling your enquiries without spending another penny on being found.

This is why a redesign often beats a bigger ad budget. Paid clicks simply pour more people into the same leaky bucket. A website redesign fixes the bucket, so every visit — paid, organic or word of mouth — is worth more. Suddenly your marketing works harder without costing you more.

How a website redesign can double your enquiries

The mechanism is simple. Visitors decide within seconds whether a business looks trustworthy and whether getting in touch is worth the effort. A redesign works on both judgements at once: it makes you look credible, and it removes the effort. Do both well and the visitors you already have convert at a noticeably higher rate — which is where the extra enquiries come from.

Picture a plumber in Leeds whose old site opens with a stock photo and a vague welcome message. A visitor with a leaking tap has to scroll, hunt for a number, then guess whether their job is even covered. Replace that with a plain headline — what you do and where you do it — a number that taps to call on a phone, and a short enquiry form, and the same visitor is in touch in seconds. Nothing about the traffic changed. The site simply stopped getting in the way.

“Nothing about the traffic changes — the site simply stops getting in the way.”

Five changes that turn browsers into enquiries

You don't have to change everything. In our experience, five moves do most of the heavy lifting — and together they shift the visitor from 'I'll come back to this later' to 'I'll just send a quick message now':

→A headline that answers 'can you help me?' Say what you do and who you do it for in the first line, above the fold. Clever slogans can wait.

→One obvious next step on every page. A single, repeated call to action beats five competing links that pull people in different directions.

→Proof you can trust. Genuine reviews, recognisable logos, photos of real work and any accreditations. People buy from businesses that look like they've done the job before.

→Contact details that follow the visitor. A tap-to-call number in the header and a short form on every key page, so nobody has to go hunting.

→A form that asks for less. A name, a number and a line about the job is plenty; every extra field is another reason to give up.

Speed, mobile and local search still decide who wins

Design tends to get the credit, but the plumbing matters just as much. Most local searches happen on a phone, often out and about on a patchy signal, so a page that takes several seconds to appear loses people before they read a word. A redesign is the natural moment to strip out the bloat, compress your images and get your pages loading quickly on mobile, where most of your visitors already are.

It's also the moment to sort out how you're found in the first place. Clear page structure, sensible headings and an up-to-date Google Business Profile all help you show up when someone nearby searches for what you offer. Pairing a redesign with proper local SEO means the better site actually gets seen, rather than sitting pretty on page three.

What a redesign costs and how long it takes

A redesign should pay for itself, so the numbers need to be clear from the outset. We work to fixed prices rather than hourly billing, so you know the figure before anything starts — websites begin at £477, with most small-business redesigns sitting in the middle of our fixed-price plans. Larger rebuilds and SEO are quoted per project so the cost always fits the job.

Most sites go live in three to six weeks, and every build includes a simple admin panel so you can edit your own content, plus 30 days of aftercare. If you'd rather never touch it again, a care plan from £27 a month keeps everything updated, backed up and running smoothly. Throughout, you own the site, the domain and the data — there's no lock-in.

The quickest way to see where your current site leaks enquiries is to have someone walk through it with fresh eyes. That's exactly what a free teardown is: a short, screen-recorded review of your site, with the specific fixes that would make the biggest difference.
