The Brief:
Nightingale Carpentry approached us with the need for a professional, user-friendly website that would serve as a central hub for their growing carpentry business in Southampton, the New Forest, and the surrounding areas. The primary goal was to create an online presence that would not only showcase their craftsmanship but also help them attract more local clients, increase enquiries, and provide a seamless user experience across all devices.

The brief was clear: they needed a platform that reflected their bespoke carpentry services while emphasising quality, reliability, and attention to detail. In addition, the website needed to be optimised for local search, ensuring that potential customers in Southampton, Totton, and the New Forest could easily find them online. Finally, the site had to include a comprehensive portfolio of their work, offering visitors a clear view of their expertise across a wide range of carpentry services.

Project Highlights:

• Custom WordPress Theme:
  We built a completely bespoke WordPress theme for Nightingale Carpentry, reflecting their brand identity and high standards of craftsmanship. The website’s design is clean, modern, and focused on ease of use. The homepage prominently features their core services, such as loft conversions, bespoke furniture, and home extensions, alongside strong calls to action, encouraging visitors to request a free quote or view the portfolio.

  Every page is optimised for user engagement, with intuitive navigation that ensures potential clients can quickly find what they’re looking for. Whether visitors are interested in bespoke wardrobes or large-scale home refurbishments, they can easily browse through the services offered and access relevant information without any hassle.

• SEO Optimisation for Local Reach:
  We implemented an effective SEO strategy to ensure Nightingale Carpentry ranks highly in search results for relevant local searches. Keywords such as “carpentry Southampton,” “bespoke furniture New Forest,” and “loft conversions Totton” were strategically integrated throughout the website, helping the business connect with local customers searching for these specific services.

  Additionally, we created location-specific landing pages to further boost their visibility in the areas they serve. This approach ensures they appear in search results when potential customers are looking for carpentry services nearby, giving Nightingale Carpentry a competitive edge over others in the region.

• Showcase of Work with Detailed Project Pages:
  A key aspect of the brief was to highlight Nightingale Carpentry’s high-quality craftsmanship through a portfolio of completed projects. We built a dedicated section of the website where each project is showcased with high-quality images, detailed descriptions, and the ability to filter by service type. This portfolio allows potential clients to browse examples of loft conversions, bespoke furniture, home extensions, and more, offering them a clear view of the company’s capabilities.

  Each project page is designed not only to impress but also to inform. By providing details about the materials used, project timelines, and the bespoke nature of each job, visitors can see exactly what to expect when they choose Nightingale Carpentry.

• Full-Service Hosting & Professional Email:
  To ensure the website runs smoothly and efficiently, we provided robust hosting solutions that guarantee speed and reliability. Fast loading times are crucial for retaining visitors and ensuring a positive user experience, particularly for local customers who are looking for information quickly. In addition, we set up professional email accounts that match the business domain, ensuring that all communications are seamless and professional.

Results:
The new website has successfully positioned Nightingale Carpentry as a leading provider of bespoke carpentry services in Southampton and the surrounding areas. Thanks to the SEO optimisation, the site now attracts a higher volume of local traffic, resulting in more qualified enquiries and an increased client base.

The intuitive design, combined with the detailed project portfolio, allows potential customers to explore the full range of services offered by Nightingale Carpentry with ease.
