Stonework and Tile Website

Challenge: Client runs a stonework and tile business; primarily works for high-end clients in New York. They desired a clean, mobile responsive interface that could visually highlight the specific types of stone they work with to better attract new clientele like architects and homeowners looking to renovate.

Scope: Mockups were provided to the client before starting. Squarespace was used to build the site and chosen for its user-friendly features so they could make minor updates to it for themselves in the future if needed. Some color and font elements were manually added into the code-injection area using HTML, CSS, and Javascript. jQuery was employed to create element animations on the homepage. I also assisted the client with copyrighting since they were unsure of what kind of text-based content to include in certain areas of the website.

Results: The client was extremely satisfied with the look and feel of the website. Client expressed appreciation for additional help with content ideas and writing.

“It was a pleasure to work with Rich on building a website for my company. He is talented, resourceful, super personable and easy to work with. He is very good at creative problem solving and he listened closely to what I wanted and executed it just how I imagined it. He also went above and beyond by providing me with copy ideas for my website. I am very happy with the finished product!”

"Rich has a very developed sense of design, I love his eye. He was reasonable in his rate and his work ethic was awesome. I lagged a bit on providing some materials because of my work schedule but he was very laid back about that which I appreciate. He delivered exactly what I wanted and was honest about what could and couldn't be done. He did a great job and I will come back to hire him for sure!"

"Richard did an excellent job creating a clickable button on 3 of my web pages to capture prospective client's emails. He did the job perfectly and the turn around time was very quick. He did an awesome job I would highly recommend his services."

“In just two hours Rich was able to teach me how to build and tweak a functional website for my company, in spite of my lack of experience and IT anxiety. I hired them several times again to learn how use Facebook, Instagram, and to improve my website.

I have come to look to Sprouted Rock as a valuable resource for the growth of my startup. Rich is competent, articulate, patient, and fun to work with. I feel fortunate to empower myself with the skills that he taught me and to count on him for the technology needs of my company”
