Home services is the specialty. Websites, I'll build for anybody. Here's who I've worked with and what I actually did. Looking for web design in Livingston, TX? Start there.
Ideal Truck Accessories — Terrell, Texas
Truck accessories and outfitting, in business since 1994, bought by the current owner about a year ago.
Their website had been dark for two weeks when he called me. A hosting plan had lapsed and nobody was watching it — the kind of failure that costs a retail business real money and that nobody notices until a customer mentions it.
- Got the site back online and rebuilt the front end so there was something live while the full build got underway
- Moved the whole setup onto infrastructure the owner controls outright, so the same lapse can't take him down again
- Built a working quote form that delivers straight to his inbox
- Ran a competitive analysis across the accessory keywords that matter in his area
Where it started. The first thing live was a one-page Starter Site — enough to look legitimate, show the work and take a call, while the full build went on behind it. See that original page. When the full site was ready, the $295 build came off the price.
The full 16-page site went live in late September on hosting the owner controls. The honest finding from the search research: most of his position was fine, and the gap was narrower and more specific than either of us assumed going in. Read the full case study →
“Then in a matter of a couple days, he had a brand new website built and designed, and sending web leads that I was never getting before on my old website.” Dustin Cox, owner
Willmer Construction
A Livingston remodeling contractor, trading since 1998. Eight service pages, a ten-town service area from Polk County to Houston, and a site laid out around the phone call, because that's how his work comes in. The lead-notification automation built here is the same pattern now running the review request sequence for everybody else. Read the full case study →
“It gives my business a more professional presence and makes me feel good about how I present my company to potential customers.” Willmer Sarmiento, owner
PolkTX — Polk County, Texas
Not a client. This one's mine, and it's the closest thing I have to showing my work rather than describing it.
PolkTX is a community reference site for Polk County: who your elected officials actually are, when the elections are, what TxDOT is doing to the roads, local sports, and what's being built around the lake. Neutral and factual, with no opinion column and no axe to grind.
- 89 officeholder records, 82 of them verified against primary sources, with the unverified ones marked as unverified rather than quietly published
- Built on the same stack I put clients on — Astro on Cloudflare, so it's fast and there's nothing to hack
- Every page reads from structured data, which is what makes a local site maintainable by one person instead of turning into a second job
If you want to know whether I can build something that ranks locally and stays accurate, this is the thing to look at. It's also where I learned most of what I know about how Google treats local content in a small county.
Lake Livingston Guide — Lake Livingston, Texas
Lake Livingston Guide is another site of mine, a sister site to PolkTX. It’s for visitors looking for boat ramps, fishing, RV parks, food, places to stay and events around the shore.
- Conditions up front. The homepage shows lake level, wind and air temperature, with lake level from the U.S. Geological Survey gauge near Goodrich.
- Sources required. All 32 business listings record sources and a last-verified date. The build refuses to publish a listing without both.
- Free listings. Every business listing is free. Businesses can pay for featured spots, but they don’t have to pay to be included.
That’s the kind of site I build: useful information up front, with checks behind it. The full site is finished and in review before launch; the public page currently takes sign-ups.
Why one of these isn't a home service business. A truck accessory shop is a destination business — people go to it on purpose rather than searching "near me" in a panic. That means the Google Maps service genuinely isn't built for it, and I don't pretend otherwise. The website work is a different question, and it's open to anybody.
