The client, the problem

Escarpment Contracting builds custom decks and installs siding and eavestrough for homeowners along the corridor from Caledon to Collingwood. Zack and John already had a website; this was a rebuild, not a first site.

Three services that sell differently needed three different pages: a deck is a visual purchase, siding is a replacement decision, eavestrough protects the house. The rebuild gave each its own URL, photography, schema, and FAQ instead of one general services page.

Mid-project we also found their domain setup spread across old providers, with a domain weeks from expiring. We untangled it before launch, so escarpmentcontracting.com now resolves cleanly to the new site and the business keeps ownership.

The approach

  • Dedicated pages for decks, siding, and eavestrough, each carrying its own Service and FAQPage schema.
  • Project gallery built from their own job-site photography, so the proof is their work rather than stock imagery.
  • The about page names Zack and John, the actual people, with AboutPage schema underneath. Homeowners hire people they can picture on their property.
  • The service-areas page lists all eleven towns from Caledon to Collingwood, because nobody searches for a region. They search their own town.
  • Rescued the expiring domain and pointed escarpmentcontracting.com at the new build before the old setup lapsed.
