Your website should be pulling in jobs while you're up on the roof.

I build fast, search-ready sites for small businesses around San Diego County — and print the keychains, shirts and vinyl that go on the truck. One person, no agency markup, no page-builder subscription.

Three things, all made here

Websites are the main event. The printer and the vinyl cutter cover everything that has to exist in the physical world.

Websites and hosting

Hand-built static sites — no WordPress, no plugins to break, nothing to patch at midnight. They load in under half a second and they stay up.

  • Written for the towns you actually serve
  • Contact form that lands in your inbox
  • Photos cleaned, resized, location data stripped
  • I handle the domain and the move off your old host
from $400 to build / $30 a month to keep

3D printing

Multi-color keychains, coins, tags and small parts, printed on a Bambu P2S with a 0.2 mm nozzle for detail that reads at thumbnail size.

  • Keychain business cards with a link on the back
  • Logo tags and promo pieces in your brand colors
  • Replacement and custom parts from a sketch
  • Large-format single-color on a second machine
quoted per run

Shirts and vinyl

Crew shirts, decals and door lettering that match the site, so the truck, the shirt and the web page all look like one company.

  • Custom shirts for the crew
  • Cut vinyl decals and window graphics
  • Stickers to hand out at the counter
  • Artwork prepped from whatever logo you have
quoted per run

Businesses I've built for

Mostly trades and service companies. A few had nothing online at all. A few had a site that was quietly costing them work.

Pristine Residential ServicesCleaning and turnovers · Modesto

Turnover cleaning for rental property up in the Central Valley. Built to book jobs from a phone, because that's where every one of their leads comes from.

in build
Maya StuccoLath and plaster · Escondido

Family contractor working all over the county. New site, project gallery, and a full move off Wix onto a domain she actually controls.

live
AMH SalesManufactured homes · Bonsall

Home listings with photos, specs and prices that the owner updates himself — no calling me every time a unit sells.

Manager 4 LessProperty management · Oceanside

Broker-run management company. Clean pages for owners and for tenants, so the right person finds the right form.

live

Most of my work is in San Diego County, but the build is the same wherever you are — as long as I can get your photos and a phone call.

Where my clients are

Named individually, because "serving all of Southern California" is what every template says and it ranks for nothing.

I'm in Escondido, so North County is home ground — I know which towns search for what and where the work actually comes from. Photos come from you: whatever's on your phone from real jobs beats stock images every time. Send me what you've got and I'll clean them up, size them for the web and strip the location data off them.

Modesto and the Central Valley

I've got a client up there and I'm taking more. I was born in the valley, so it's not a market I'm guessing at. Distance doesn't change the build — you send photos from your phone, we talk it through, the site goes live the same way it would if you were down the street.

Get a free site check

What you get, spelled out

Every site ships with the same groundwork. It's the part most cheap sites skip, and it's the part that decides whether Google shows you.

Business details Google can read

Your name, hours, phone, address and service area marked up the way search engines expect, so you show up in the map results.

A page for each town you work in

Written separately, not copy-pasted. Duplicate pages compete with each other and both lose.

Answers to what people actually ask

The questions you get on every call, on the page — which can surface directly in search results.

Photos that don't slow the page

Converted, resized and stripped of the GPS data your phone bakes into every picture.

Free SSL and hosting that doesn't go down

Served from a global network at no monthly hosting cost. The padlock is included, not an upsell.

The domain stays yours

Registered in your name, with the login. If you ever fire me, you walk away with everything.

Pricing, without the phone call

Priced so a two-truck operation can say yes. Renewed once a year so we can both look at it again.

$400 and up

Build it

One time. Design, copy, photos, launch and the move off your old host.

$30 / month

Keep it running

Hosting, security, backups, and an hour of edits each month. Hours don't roll over.

$55 / hour

Bigger changes

New pages, a new section, a rebuild of something. Quoted before I start.

~$15 / year

Your domain

Billed at cost, in your name. No markup, no hostage situation.

No setup fee on top of the build fee, no charge to look at your current site, and no contract that auto-renews at triple the rate. Prepay the year if you'd rather not think about it.

Questions I get on every first call

If yours isn't here, ask it. I'd rather answer it once than have you wondering.

How much does a website cost?

Builds start at $400 one time, then $30 a month to host and maintain it. Your domain runs about $15 a year and I bill it at cost. For most small shops that's the whole bill — there's no setup fee stacked on top and no separate hosting invoice.

How long does it take to build?

Two to three weeks once I have your photos and your details. The slow part is almost never me — it's waiting on pictures and on you confirming the service list. If you're organized, it's faster.

Do I own the domain and the site?

Yes. The domain is registered in your name with your login, and the site files are yours. If you decide to leave, you take everything with you and I'll help hand it off. Nothing is locked to me.

Can you move my site off Wix, GoDaddy or Squarespace?

Yes, and I've done the painful ones. Wix in particular won't let you point your domain elsewhere, so the fix is transferring the domain to a real registrar first. It takes five to seven days at the registry, your email keeps working the whole time, and you don't lose your search ranking.

Do you work outside San Diego County?

Yes. I have a client in Modesto and the whole build runs remotely — photos from your phone, a couple of phone calls, same result. In North County I'll come out and shoot the photos myself.

What if I don't have a logo or any photos?

We work with what you have. I can clean up a logo from a business card or a truck door, and I'd rather use twenty decent phone photos of your real jobs than stock images of somebody else's. Stock photos are one of the fastest ways to look like you might not be a real company.

Can you do the shirts and keychains too?

That's the reason both exist here. I print multi-color keychains, tags and small parts, and I cut vinyl for shirts, decals and door lettering. Getting the site, the truck and the crew shirts to match is the cheapest branding a small company can buy.

Send me your site. I'll tell you what's wrong with it.

No charge and no pitch deck — I'll run the same check you saw at the top and send you the results in plain English. If you don't have a site yet, even easier.
