A premium 5-page custom WordPress site for a landscaping company covering Bristol and North Somerset — slate, teal and copper palette, GD brick monogram logo, portfolio section, full schema markup, and Yoast SEO configured from day one.
Brabazon Landscaping is a landscaping and garden design company covering Bristol and North Somerset — delivering patios, planting schemes, fencing, and full garden transformations for homes across the region. A growing business with a strong reputation built on the quality of the work.
The problem: their online presence didn't reflect the quality of what gets delivered on site. For a trade where homeowners research carefully before committing to significant spend, the website is usually the deciding factor between "get a quote" and "try another company". The brief was a premium, editorial, trustworthy site that made the decision easy.
The direction: warm whites, a slate, teal and copper palette, a GD brick monogram logo, and a clean 5-page structure that gives a potential customer everything they need in under a minute of browsing.
The palette pairs slate (#2a3838) and teal (#3a8a7a) with copper (#b5651d) accents on a warm white background — calm, earthy, and considered. The GD brick monogram logo carries the identity throughout. Typography is clean and confident without tipping into corporate — this is still a local landscaping company, just one that takes its work seriously.
The site covers Home, About, Services, Portfolio, and Contact — tight, focused, and no wasted clicks. Every page a standalone PHP template with inline CSS, schema markup, and the specific content needed to convert that stage of the customer journey. Portfolio is the real workhorse: before/after imagery of actual completed projects doing more heavy lifting than any amount of marketing copy.
Even on a 5-page site, local SEO fundamentals matter. We configured LocalBusiness schema with Bristol and North Somerset as areas served, Service schema for the key landscaping offerings, FAQPage schema, and BreadcrumbList across all templates. The copy includes natural location signals without turning the site into a keyword-stuffed mess.
Installed Yoast SEO, configured content types and taxonomies appropriately, disabled feeds and author archives (single-author site), and ensured the XML sitemap was ready at /sitemap_index.xml. Google Search Console verified via domain property, sitemap submitted on launch, indexing underway within days.
SSL installed and verified, SMTP configured and tested, contact form submission tested end-to-end, robots.txt verified to reference the sitemap, and a full mobile-first responsive pass. The site went live without any of the usual DNS/SSL/email tripping hazards that slow small business launches.
