Editorial homecare layout for LeAnn Coccaro — a single mom of five who started her cleaning business out of Vandergrift and runs every clean herself. Warm ivory + champagne gold + matte black palette pulled directly from her logo, set in Cormorant Garamond italics and Inter body type with hand-script signature accents. Real Facebook reviews woven between sections, four draggable before/after sliders (bedroom, fryer, dining, chandelier), a "places people don't think to look" detail gallery built from her actual transformation posts, and a hero anchored by the styled lifestyle scene from her own School's-ending-soon promo. 100% recommend rate, currently accepting May/June bookings.
Editorial wellness layout for Katie, a Registered Nurse bringing diabetic-safe foot care into people's homes across Monroeville, Murrysville, Oakmont, Irwin, and McKeesport. Cream + peach + bright-blue palette pulled from her actual logo, paired with Newsreader italics and senior-readable Schibsted Grotesk body. Private-pay framed as a feature — dedicated, unrushed time — instead of a barrier.
Psychedelic craft brewery breaking ground May 12 at 223 N. Third St. Cinematic black + cream + burnt orange palette with rainbow-cycling Bungee headlines, animated gradient blobs, and a skewed Tube Da Ville banner counting down to their August 1 Guinness World Record attempt. Built around the founders' four-year journey from a 2022 conversation to a fully funded brewery, with hooks for the groundbreaking, the 900/1000 tubes already registered, and the local community that carried them through.
A San Diego–style Mexican restaurant on Crawford Ave. Editorial design built around hand-pressed tortillas, the 619→724 story, and the sobremesa philosophy itself.
Two-location barbershop run by master barber Tanner Chapkis. Streetwear-influenced design with a sneaker-drop aesthetic, built around the 5.0 / 852 reviews and the team behind both shops.
Classic Americana redesign for the Scottdale barber shop that's been running on Pittsburgh Street since '89. Built around their tagline: "Home of the 5-Minute Haircut."
A magazine-style profile for a 30-year Main Street institution in Mt. Pleasant. Warm, story-forward design that treats the local legend like the cover of a neighborhood paper.
Bright, playful redesign for the only self-serve pet wash in the Scottdale area. Dual-identity concept that celebrates both the car wash bays and the dog wash that nobody else offers.
Industrial-vintage site for a rust and frame repair specialist in Sutersville. Built around the niche most PA shops won't touch — saving rusted-out vehicles other places told you to total.
Soft, spa-inspired site for a small-batch dog grooming studio in Mt. Pleasant. Pastel palette, rounded shapes, and a "one pup at a time" calm-and-elevated brand voice.
Bold, energetic site for an owner-operated dog grooming salon on West Main in Mt. Pleasant. Honey cream + burnt orange + teal palette with chunky display type, built around the personal, by-appointment care of owner Alexis Welch.
Vintage national-park aesthetic for the family-run animal farm in Smithton with 300+ animals. Forest green + terracotta + mustard ochre palette with chunky display type, real reviews, parties section, and an embedded phone-mockup reels player to showcase their daily Facebook video content.
Warm-professional site for Amanda's personal pet sitting business in Latrobe. Navy + sage + terracotta palette with Fraunces serif headlines, side-by-side kennel-vs-home comparison, real pricing breakdown, embedded reel from her Facebook page, and her real reviews from Joell and Jess. Built around her core differentiator: 15 years as a Vet Tech.
Dark soft-goth aesthetic for Brookville's first coffin-core café. Ink black + bone cream + blood wine + sage palette with dramatic Cormorant Garamond italics and Cinzel display caps. Built around the trinity of drinks-to-die-for, the prop swap plant wall, and weekly yoga & pilates classes — owned and run by Jasonna Hockinson, who started as a coffee trailer in 2023.
I'm Grant. I live in Westmoreland County and I build custom websites for the small businesses around here — the kind of places that aren't on a national chain's email list, that don't have a marketing department, and that mostly run on word of mouth and a Facebook page.
Word of mouth still works. But when somebody Googles your shop and the first thing that pops up is an auto-generated placeholder page or a stale Yelp listing, you're losing customers before they ever walk in. That's the gap I close.
Every site is built from scratch around the actual business — its story, its customers, its voice. No templates, no cookie-cutter "small business website" packages. Just real design that does justice to what you've already built.
What you do, who you serve, what makes you different. No discovery call required.
A real, working homepage you can scroll through. No commitment. If you don't love it, you owe me nothing.
Pricing is transparent. Most builds are 1–3 pages and take 1–2 weeks from green light to live.
Your domain, your hosting, your code — fully handed over at the end. I'm around if you need me down the road, but you're never locked in.
Email is fastest. I usually reply within a day. If you want to see what your shop could look like, just send the name and I'll build a free mockup before we even talk pricing.
