Web design in Castleford

Lean, fast, accessible websites built by an actual human. Serving Castleford and nearby: Glasshoughton, Allerton Bywater, Normanton, Pontefract.

I help with rebuilds & redesigns, ‘please rescue this site’ clean-ups, performance improvements in Castleford and nearby.

If your site’s been “done by a mate”, I’m not judging… but I am fixing it.

A typical project in Castleford: A rebuild of an ageing site that’s hard to update and slow on mobile.

What I can help with

Typical problems I fix

How it works

  1. Quick discovery: what you do, who it’s for, what “good” looks like.
  2. Plan: pages, content, priorities, and a sensible scope.
  3. Build: clean HTML/CSS, progressive enhancement, and performance budgets.
  4. Checks: accessibility, responsiveness, speed, and content sanity.
  5. Launch: tidy handover, and optional ongoing support.

Mini case study
Halifax Digital Festival

What was broken

  • Pages were heavier and slower than they needed to be (especially on mobile).
  • Too much competing for attention at load time.

What I did

  • Audited page weight, requests, and Core Web Vitals bottlenecks.
  • Optimised images and cut dead weight from assets.
  • Made changes with a “keep it fast” budget in mind.

What improved

  • Faster loads and a calmer, more reliable experience.
  • Improved performance metrics you can actually measure, not “feels quicker” vibes.

Rough pricing

If you want a rough estimate, most projects land in one of these:

Bigger builds (more pages, custom features, heavier content) are priced after we’ve scoped what you actually need.

FAQs

Can we do this remotely?

Yes. Most work is done remotely and it works brilliantly. If you’re local, meeting up is optional, not mandatory.

Do you use templates or page builders?

No. I build bespoke sites with proper foundations, then keep them maintainable and easy to extend.

Can you improve an existing site instead of rebuilding?

Often, yes. If the foundations are decent, we can improve speed, accessibility and content without starting from scratch.
