02 — A glimpse of the work

A trade site, top to bottom — scroll to see it move.

Built for an electrician in Bristol. Loads in 1.8 seconds. Books jobs in 30 seconds. This is the texture of every site we ship — keep scrolling and the phone scrolls with you.

  • Phone number lives in the thumb zone. No menu hunt.
  • Three services. Three rates. No menu maze.
  • Reviews pulled straight from your Google Business Profile.
  • Booking in 30 seconds. Pre-filled. One submit.

A plumber's website isn't a brochure. It's a system that happens to look like a website.

A van parked on a high street earns calls because of where it sits and what it says down the side. A website is the same. Where it sits in Google. What it says when you find it. How fast it loads on a builder's phone at 7am.

Most trade websites get the first part backwards and skip the second two entirely. They're pretty. They're slow. They rank for the business name and nothing else. The phone stays quiet.

We build the system. Five pages, hand-coded, tuned for the towns you actually work in. Google Business Profile wired in. Reviews surfaced. Call button in the thumb zone. If the phone doesn't ring in 60 days, you get the money back and you keep the site.

What we do, exactly

Hand-coded websites
for UK trades.
No templates.
No page builders.
No agency PMs.
One person writes
each one, at night,
mostly, in Manchester,
by one pair of hands.

03 — Sites built

Three trades. Three sites.

Each card below is a live, hand-coded site — not a screenshot, not a mockup. Click any one to open the real thing in a new tab and click around.

04 — How a site ships

Brief on Monday. Live by the second Friday.

Four lines, fourteen days, no project manager between us. You speak to the developer writing the code.

Day 01
The call
30 minutes. What you do. Who's calling now. What's stopping more.
Day 02 — 09
The build
Hand-coded. Real HTML, no page builder. Copy written together over one back-and-forth.
Day 10
The preview
Private link. You review on your phone and your laptop. One round of revisions included.
Day 14
Live
Domain pointed. Google Business Profile linked. Review widget on. 60-day clock begins.

05 — What it costs

Two plans. Both come with the 60-day lead guarantee.

Set up once. Pay monthly for hosting, edits, and the care that keeps the site working. Cancel any time with 30 days' notice.

06 — The guarantee

If the phone doesn't ring in 60 days, your money comes back. And you keep the site.

07 — A note from Harry

A note —

I'm one developer, working at night in a small flat in Manchester, mostly after my dad's tea. I started StaticSwift because I watched a mate of his — a roofer — lose three good months and £1,800 to a half-finished WordPress site that an agency took the money for and walked away from. It made me angry enough to do something about it.

When you hire me, you get my number. When the phone rings I answer it. There's no junior, no project manager, no "we'll loop in our team." The work is mine. The promises are mine. The refund, if it comes to that, is also mine.

I built the 60-day lead guarantee because I believe the work earns it. If it doesn't, you shouldn't pay for it, and you certainly shouldn't have to argue with me to get the money back. So I made it automatic.
