Client project · Tree surgery, Seaham & County Durham
A trade site with one job: get the phone ringing. Services written for the jobs people search, area coverage, a quote form, and the number where a thumb can reach it.
SR7-owned platform · Built and run by SR7
Not a brochure. A public archive of fishing boats, crews and harbour stories across Britain and Ireland, with members adding boats and photographs. The interesting work is underneath.

SR7-owned business · Courier and light haulage
Built mobile-first because that's where transport enquiries come from. The site is a working quote engine for same-day courier, light haulage, furniture and pallet work.
Bespoke websites built to look the part and bring in real enquiries. I work with trades, training providers, salons, cafés and small businesses across the North East.
Built from scratch on WordPress, with pages written around what your customers search for, a contact form and a proper local search set-up.
From £295Got a site that looks dated, loads slowly or brings in nothing? I rebuild it and keep the pages that already rank.

SR7 Web Design is me, George, working from Seaham. I take the first call, I write the quote, I build the site and I answer the phone afterwards.
No account managers, no passing your job between departments. I explain things in plain English, agree the scope up front, and don't add things you didn't ask for.
We talk through what you do, who you want to reach and what the site needs to do for you. Phone, in person or by email.
You get a written quote listing the pages and features included. Nothing starts until you're happy with it.
I build the site and send you a private link to review. You tell me what to change and I change it.
The site goes live on your domain. You get the logins, a walkthrough of how to update it, and support if you want it.
Three starting points. Every quote lists exactly what is included, so there's nothing to argue about later.

“Absolutely made up with my new website! George at SR7 Web Design has done an amazing job. He was incredibly patient with all my tweaks and changes and made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it. Nothing was too much trouble and I couldn’t be happier with the finished result.”
“From start to finish, the service was professional, fast, and spot on. They took the time to understand my business and what I needed the website to do. The site loads fast, works perfectly, and already makes my tree surgery business look far more professional online.”
“George sorted my website out from start to finish and honestly made the whole thing painless. He explained everything in simple terms, kept me updated, and had the site live quicker than I expected. Quality work, fair prices, and spot on service.”
“Excellent service from start to finish. The website looks modern, professional and works perfectly on mobile and desktop. Everything was explained clearly and the whole process was straightforward.”
From £295. Most local businesses choose Growth at £595. Anything with custom functionality is quoted individually and starts at £995. The quote lists what's included before you commit to anything.
Yes. Once the agreed project balance has been paid, the website and its content belong to you. Your domain should remain registered to you. If you use SR7 Managed Website Care, the hosting account itself is operated by SR7 Web Design, but your website can be exported and transferred to another provider if you leave.
As a guide, most sites take one to two weeks once I have your content and photos. That's an estimate, not a promise: the main thing that slows a project down is waiting for text, so I'll help you get that together early.
Yes. Every site is built on WordPress and I show you how to change text, prices and photos. If you'd rather not touch it, send me the changes and I'll do them.
Sometimes. If it's built on something sensible and the problems are cosmetic, small fixes may be enough. If it's slow, dated or built on an old builder, a rebuild is usually cheaper than patching. I'll tell you which honestly.
Every site is set up correctly for local search from day one: page titles, location details and a Google Business Profile that matches the site. That gives you a solid footing. I don't promise rankings, because nobody honestly can.
Yes. Most of my clients are in Seaham, Sunderland, Durham, Hartlepool and Newcastle, but I work with businesses across the North East and further afield by phone and email.
A conversation about your business, your logo if you have one, some photos of your work, and the services and areas you want to cover. I'll guide you through the rest.
Genuine faults in the original build are corrected free for 30 days after launch. New changes, extra features or additional work are separate.
Based in Seaham, County Durham. I meet local clients in person and work with the rest by phone and email.
If your area isn't listed, get in touch anyway. Distance doesn't change how the work is done.
