“5 stars without hesitation. Working with Fervor has been an amazing experience from start to finish. The level of professionalism was genuinely top tier. Communication was excellent, quick replies, clear updates, and always open to feedback or changes without any problem. What stood out most is that you can tell he genuinely knows web design inside and out from real professional experience, not just someone throwing together templates. He put real effort, care, and thought into the project, even offering his own ideas and suggestions to improve things I hadn't even considered. On top of that, he's genuinely a great guy to deal with, easy to talk to, open-minded, helpful, and clearly passionate about what he does. I'd confidently recommend him to anyone looking for a professional website or branding help. Huge respect and appreciation.”

Let’s talk about what your website could be doing for your business.
Call Us TodayThe Indianapolis, IN Remodeling specifics your website needs.
Every angle below comes from how Indianapolis, IN homeowners search, evaluate, and buy, built into your site to help boost conversions.
A 1974 Median Over Deep Older Cores
Indianapolis reads mid-century at the median, built around 1974 across roughly 405,450 units. But about 62,069 of those homes date to 1939 or earlier, packed into neighborhoods like Irvington, the Old Northside, and Herron-Morton. So your remodel scope splits hard by address, between a light postwar ranch update and reworking a century-old Indianapolis home with balloon framing, plaster, and knob-and-tube you have to plan around.
Indianapolis Historic Districts Gate Your Exterior
If your project sits in one of the Indianapolis Historic Preservation Commission's historic or conservation districts, you need a Certificate of Appropriateness before you touch the exterior, add on, or demolish. The commission reviews your changes against its area preservation plans, and that approval must come before other land use permits. So on a remodel in a protected district, you route the design through IHPC first, because a denial can stall the whole job.
Indianapolis Enforces Indiana's 2018-Based Codes
Your Indianapolis remodel answers to state codes the Department of Business and Neighborhood Services enforces. Indiana runs the 2020 Indiana Residential Code, which adopts the 2018 International Residential Code for one and two-family dwellings, plus the 2014 Indiana Building Code built on the 2012 IBC. So design a kitchen, bath, or addition to those editions and their Indiana amendments rather than whatever national code your subs assume.
Remodeling Is the Slowest-Loading Trade Fervor Measures
96.3% of remodeling sites miss Google's mobile speed bar, and the median mobile load runs 7.57 seconds. An image-heavy trade with a slow image pipeline is fighting its own strongest selling point: the photos.
A 3000px Photo in a 600px Box Is Wasted Load Time
The most common image mistake on remodeling sites is serving an oversized original instead of a properly sized, modern-format version. It's the cheapest fix available for a trade whose entire pitch is visual.
Your Website Is A Storefront
Title III of the ADA treats your business as a place of public accommodation, and courts increasingly extend that duty to the website tied to it. A private plaintiff cannot win money from you under the federal law itself, but they can force fixes and collect their attorney fees. So the cheap-looking demand letter still costs you real money once the lawyers get involved.
WCAG 2.1 AA Is The Yardstick
No ADA regulation spells out a web standard for private businesses yet, so courts and settlements borrow one. And the standard they borrow is WCAG 2.1 Level AA, the same benchmark the DOJ wrote into its 2024 rule for state and local government sites. So when a complaint lists your failures, it reads like a WCAG checklist. You want to pass that checklist before a plaintiff ever runs it.
Fake Reviews Are Now Illegal
The FTC's Rule on Consumer Reviews and Testimonials took effect on October 21, 2024, and it targets exactly the shortcuts contractors get tempted to take. You cannot buy reviews, write them as the owner without disclosing it, or post testimonials from people who never hired you. And the FTC can seek civil penalties of up to $53,088 per violation. So that glowing five-star wall needs to be real and disclosed.
The Slowest-Loading Trade We Measure
Start with the finding that reframes what a remodeling website is even for. Your trade sells on images, so your sites run heavy, so they load slow. Fervor inspected 146 remodeling contractor websites for the Digital State of the Remodeling Industry report, and the speed numbers came back the worst in the whole framework. This page is one piece of our Remodeling Website Design work.

First Impressions on a Phone in a Bungalow Kitchen
So picture the visitor the whole build exists for. An Irvington homeowner is standing in a hundred-year-old kitchen she's hated for two winters, phone in hand, finally serious. The numbers here come straight from our State of Remodeling 2026.
Get My Site InspectionShe taps your result. What renders next, a clear headline over real project photos, or a spinning hero and a cookie banner, decides whether your shop makes her list at all. The inspection scores that exact moment as its own category. "The average remodeling website scores 15.33 of 20 on first impression, 76.6% of the available points for the above-the-fold experience." - Fervor, Digital State of the Remodeling Industry (2026). The same crew also handles Remodeling Conversion Rate Optimization in Indianapolis, IN.
That average hides a wide spread, and the spread is pure design discipline, not budget. A strong first screen answers three questions in two seconds: what you build, where you build it, and what she does next. In Indianapolis the answers write themselves. We run the same build nearby for Remodeling Website Design in Louisville, KY.
Kitchens, baths, and whole-home work, the neighborhoods and suburbs you actually cover (Broad Ripple, Irvington, and Fountain Square inside the old limits, Carmel, Fishers, and Greenwood around the loop), and a tappable way to book a consult. A weak first screen opens with a stock skyline and the word "Welcome," and it donates her to the next tab.
"Mobile experience averages 10.45 of 15 points across remodeling contractor websites, 69.6% of the category maximum." - Fervor, Digital State of the Remodeling Industry (2026) And the mobile category as a whole sits at barely two-thirds of the points, which tells you the trade approves its builds on the wrong device. Approve your next build from your truck, on cellular, in the parking lot of a supply house off Keystone. That's the screen your customers hold. Everything a desktop mockup makes look finished can fall apart there.
The Portfolio Problem: Galleries That Sell Without Sinking the Page
Here's the paradox at the center of remodeling web design. Your best sales tool is the before-and-after, and your before-and-afters are exactly what make the site slow.
Get My Site InspectionSo the craft isn't "add more photos." It's building an image pipeline that ships proof fast: WebP compression, images sized to the screen requesting them, lazy loading below the fold, real dimensions reserved so the layout doesn't jump. None of it is exotic. But it has to be an architecture decision, because a portfolio theme that dumps full-resolution camera files onto a phone is why 85.3 percent of the trade fails the speed bar.
And the patience of the remodeling buyer is what makes the fast gallery worth the engineering. This isn't an emergency trade where someone hires the first result. She researches through the whole cold half of the year. "Homeowners spend roughly 9.6 months planning a kitchen remodel versus 5.1 months building it." - Houzz Inc. (2024)
Almost ten months on your site and your competitors' sites, and in Indianapolis the calendar concentrates that research. Real winter freezes out concrete and exterior work from November into March, so homeowners scope spring projects with a laptop through the cold months. A build that loads her portfolio instantly on every one of those visits compounds. A build that stalls hands her to the shop whose photos showed up. And the trigger behind most of those searches is mundane and universal.
"38% of homeowners renovating their kitchen cite kitchen deterioration or dysfunction as a reason to renovate." - Houzz Inc. (2026) The four-furnace bungalow kitchen that finally quit is exactly this buyer. And at the top of the market the money climbs fast, which is why single-digit gains in speed and clarity translate to real dollars here. "Homeowners with larger kitchens spend more on major remodels (median $75,000) than those with smaller kitchens ($46,000)." - Houzz Inc. (2026) One captured search, ten months patient, worth five figures at the median and past $75,000 in the Zionsville and Meridian-Kessler tier. That's the plain math that makes the image pipeline the highest-return line in the whole build.
Project Pages Built for Indianapolis's Two Layers
But a template doesn't know this metro, and Indianapolis punishes templates with its stock. The inner layer, where the city's median home dates to 1970, carries the craft inventory: 1920s Broad Ripple bungalows on crawlspaces, Irvington four-squares, Butler-Tarkington tree-street homes, riding knob-and-tube-era wiring, retrofit ductwork, and federal lead-safe rules on nearly every job.

Questions Contractors Ask Before Hiring Us
A site that books the job instead of just describing it. The work is conversion architecture first, so every page in Indianapolis has a clear call path, real proof, and fast mobile load.
You see the scoring framework, the benchmark data behind it, and your ranked fix list before any remediation work begins. It is a diagnosis you can evaluate, not a promise you have to trust.
The Fervor Grade framework was built by scoring 380 contractor sites across roofing, remodeling, and HVAC. Your trade's patterns are in the data, not borrowed from SaaS or dentists.
A Booked by Design rebuild runs 30 to 60 days. It starts with a Site Inspection so the build targets the pages that are costing you calls.
You do. The domain, the content, the analytics, every account we touch. Day one. No ownership traps, no holding your site hostage if you leave.
Then you found out something that was already costing you, and now you know where. The inspection surfaces what is actually wrong on the site so you can decide what to fix.
No. We work with remodeling contractors across the region, and the research covers national brands too, so the benchmark holds whether you are downtown or two towns over.
A Booked by Design rebuild is one project price with no monthly lock-in. One booked job at your average ticket usually covers it, and we show you that math before you commit.
No. The work protects what already ranks. We map the URLs and the equity first, fix the conversion leaks, and improve the pages that search already trusts rather than wiping them.
Very little. The intake takes minutes, and the build work is ours to run from there. You keep running crews. We will only ask for things no one else can give us, like your real service area and your best photos.
