Everything worth knowing before getting started. If your question isn't here, get in touch.

A professionally designed website for a small service business in the UK typically costs between £800 and £3,000, depending on the scope. At Sean Baker Studio, projects are scoped individually because most service businesses need a focused, high-converting site rather than a large one. You'll receive a clear quote before any work begins, with no hidden costs.

Primarily service businesses: personal trainers, tradespeople, cleaning companies, therapists, interior designers, and similar. These businesses share a common need for a professional, trust-building website that converts local search traffic into enquiries. If you run a service business and need a site that works hard for you, get in touch.

With a freelance web designer, you work directly with the person building your site. No account managers, no handoffs, no costs inflated by agency overhead. At Sean Baker Studio, every project is handled personally, which means faster communication, sharper attention to detail, and a site that genuinely reflects your business.

Before founding Sean Baker Studio, I worked in project management. That means alongside design, you get clear timelines, defined deliverables, and consistent communication throughout. Projects run to schedule because that's how I'm wired, not just how I try to work.

Most projects are completed within two to four weeks from the point your content and images are ready. Straightforward service business sites move fast, and timelines depend largely on how quickly feedback is exchanged. You'll always have a clear schedule agreed upfront.

A Facebook page puts your business on a platform you don't own. Meta can change the rules, restrict your reach, or disappear entirely. A website is your permanent, owned presence on the internet. It signals professionalism to clients who search for you on Google, and it's the only way to appear in local search results when someone types "personal trainer in Reading" or "oven cleaner near me."

Yes. Sean Baker Studio is based in Oxfordshire and works primarily with service businesses across Oxfordshire, Berkshire, and the wider South East. In-person meetings are available for local clients, though most projects run smoothly over email and video call.

Yes. Every site built by Sean Baker Studio is fully responsive and adapts cleanly to mobile, tablet, and desktop. With the majority of local searches now happening on mobile, this is the baseline, not a bonus.

Yes. Minor updates and amends are straightforward to arrange. For ongoing changes, a support arrangement can be discussed depending on your needs. You'll never be left with a site you can't update.
