Website Redesign
Website redesign services for sites that have stopped pulling their weight.
Most of the websites we build replace one that was already there. We look at what you have, keep what is working, and design and build something better, without losing the pages and links you have built up.
- Most of our work replaces an old site
- Your pages and links carried across
- Designed from scratch
- From £1,500, or spread over 12 months
Signs your website is due a redesign
Most sites do not break all at once. They just slowly stop working as hard as they should. If two or three of these sound familiar, it is worth a conversation.

It is awkward to use on a phone.
Pages take too long to load.
Updating it is a chore, or nobody dares touch it.

WordPress or bespoke: we will tell you which
Redesigning a website is a chance to put it on the right footing, not just give it a new coat of paint. We look at how you use your current site and recommend one of two routes.
Rebuilt on WordPress
When you, your staff or someone you work with will be updating it regularly.

When you would rather send changes to us, and want something fast with nothing to update.
Bespoke websitesAsk us which one your site needs
Only want part of it refreshed, like a new homepage or a few tired sections? That is a smaller job. WordPress support & development
Everything that works comes with you
A redesign should not cost you what you have built up. Before we change anything, we go through your current site and note what is worth keeping: the pages people visit, the content you have written, and the addresses Google and your customers already know.
We cannot promise where Google will rank you, and nobody honestly can. What we can promise is that the new site does not throw away anything the old one had earned.

View the projectWhat a redesign changes
Designed for today's customers
Every page is designed around the people you want to reach now, not the business you were when the old site went up.
Mobile first
Most of your visitors are on a phone, so that is what gets designed first.
Faster, not just repainted
A new look on a slow site is still a slow site, so we sort out what is underneath as well.
Easier to look after
Either easy for your team to update, or nothing for you to update at all, depending on the route you choose.
Built for search
Clean page structure, proper titles and descriptions, and structured data, so Google can read the new site properly.
And once it is live, we can keep looking after it. WordPress maintenance
How a website redesign works
01
We look at your current site
What is working, what is not, and what we would keep. Then you get a straight recommendation and a fixed quote.
02
Design
We design the new pages around your customers and refine them with you.
03
Build
We build the new site alongside the old one, so your current site stays live the whole time.
04
Switch over and check
We put the new site live, redirect every old address, and check it all on desktop and mobile.
Tell us about your site Most redesigns take four to eight weeks once everything is agreed.
Common questions
How much does a website redesign cost?
It depends on how much of your current site we can keep, so every redesign gets a fixed quote once we have looked at it. Most start from £1,500. If it helps, you can spread the cost over 12 monthly payments, with no interest and nothing extra to pay.
Should I redesign my website or start again?
For most businesses, a redesign is a fresh start: a new design on a platform that suits how you use the site now, with your content, pages and links carried across. If the site is sound and only part of it looks tired, a smaller refresh may be all you need, and we will tell you so.
Will I lose my Google rankings?
A redesign done carelessly can, usually because old page addresses stop working. We carry your content across and redirect every old address to its new home, so the links Google and your customers know keep working. Nobody can honestly promise rankings, but we make sure the new site does not throw away what the old one earned.
Will my website go offline during the redesign?
No. We build the new site alongside the current one, and only switch over when it is finished and checked.
Can you redesign a website someone else built?
Yes. Most of the websites we build replace one that was already there. We will need access to the old site, and to the domain when it comes to switching over.
Can you redesign a Wix or Squarespace site?
Yes, by rebuilding it, either on WordPress or on our own bespoke platform. We move your content across and redirect the old addresses, as we did for The Cabinet Door Shop's Wix site.
Can I keep my current hosting?
Your new site lives on our hosting, which is included for the first year. Your domain and email stay where they are.
Will I be able to update the new site myself?
If you want to, yes: we will rebuild it on WordPress so you and your team can. If you would rather send changes to us, our bespoke platform suits you better, and we make every change for you.
How long does a redesign take?
Most take four to eight weeks once everything is agreed. What slows things down is usually new content and photos, so the more of that you have ready, the faster it goes.
Do you redesign online shops?
No. It is not what we do best, and we would rather point you to someone who does it properly.
