Nice! Too many times I went to your site to find it was 'being reconstructed'

Looks good. My suggestions: 1) on each page add a "call to action" so for example on the Services page add a link to the contact form, for a free quotation or whatever you want to offer. 2) make sure the site is responsive, since you are in the mobile space. I didn't check it on a mobile device. Keep up the good work, Peter PS I'm an internet marketer so can't help but make these suggestions. I am new to app development so hope to get your valuable input someday :)

Thank you for making me feel worse, lol! I really need to finish a lot of details on my website, and looking at how nice yours is only encourages me to pity myself. ;) Nice Job! I'm going to have to get back to the web as well! Cheers! -- Smug

Nice web site! Nice use of WordPress Elegant Fusion theme. It re-formats the screen for narrow screens. You have a good eye for the subtle things without overdoing it. -- Niraj

Quite nice, but you should check cross-browser compatibility! If your homepage is not supposed to have only a (nice) flashy red background with 1/4 second black flashes displaying slides (yes 1/4 of a second... couldn't really see what the slides are... mockups, or so it seems), there's something wrong... Check it out on the latest Safari browser (OSX Mavericks)... By the way... on an iPhone (iOS 7), you have a strange double mobile layout, one that has nothing to do with the real design (the "HandHeld" default page), one with your red design... Check it out! Oi! Jack

I just checked on an iOS 7 iPhone -- the default mobile theme is in place. It needs to be configured for the mobile home page and the colors. Or disable it because the primary theme already reformats the content and layout for the mobile's screen. On the primary theme, for mobiles, I would add margin space to the left and right sides of the screen. Right now, the text starts at the very left edge of the mobile screen. Strange, in comparison to Jack's experience, I had a good experience with Safari on Mavericks. Perhaps something changed on the web site from yesterday to today such that it broke on Jack. Ask other folks to also try.

Hey guys, thanks for your feedback, good info here. @pdog, good advice, will that to the services page. It works fine on mobile devices. Thanks @Niraj, thanks, it means a lot coming from you. Good eye... I love Elegant Themes... @fusionsch, I had a similar problem as you did on Safari on Maverick (its was I use) and it seems fine now. It was displaying badly for some unknown reason. I developed it always on safari maverick, and never had a glitch. When I saw your post, I checked it, and it was as you said, but now it seems ok. I've also rearranged the mobile view of the app, should be ok now. Thanks for you feedback. Cheers
