The brief

The site had to answer a homeowner’s real questions before they pick up the phone, grounded in what makes Portland different: old housing stock, stone foundations, Casco Bay humidity and ice dams. It also had to load fast, read well on a phone and give search engines clean, accurate signals on every page.

What I built

  • Homepage of more than 1,000 words plus six service pages: remediation, testing and inspection, basement, crawl space, attic and black mold
  • Homeowner guides, six in all, on black mold health risks, Maine removal costs, testing vs. remediation, ice dams, old Portland homes and mold in rentals
  • Copy built on local specifics: pre-1950 homes in Munjoy Hill, the West End and Deering, stone foundations, Casco Bay humidity and ice dams
  • Structured data on every page: business details covering 12 Greater Portland towns, FAQ markup on the homepage and service pages, article markup on guides, plus breadcrumbs
  • Design system in spruce green and copper, with Fraunces display type, a curved hero edge and split photo heroes with caption chips
  • WebP images generated at multiple widths, with hero images loaded first and below-the-fold images loaded lazily
  • Sitemap dates drawn from a declared content date for each page, with a pre-build check that stops a deploy if any page is missing one
  • Layout built mobile-first, with a fixed click-to-call bar, and a menu and FAQs built from standard browser elements, so the site runs no scripts of its own

Details worth a look

Guides page headed Straight Answers About Mold in Maine Homes, with a panel counting 6 practical guides and topic chips for costs, testing, old homes and Maine rentals

Detail 01
