Modernising a Website for an Underpinning Company with Seamless Functionality and a Fresh Design
Virtue Web Solutions was brought on to rebuild a website for an underpinning company that had been using outdated web technology. The previous site was showing its age, with failing functionality and a design that no longer met modern standards. Our task was to give the company a fresh, updated website while maintaining their brand identity through consistent use of their original color themes and logos. Additionally, the company had two separate websites, and as part of the rebuild, we consolidated them into one cohesive, functional website. The new site features sections for services, case studies, a blog for news and updates, and a history of the company.
Preserving Brand Identity with a Modern Design
Despite the need for a complete overhaul of their website, the client wanted to maintain their existing brand identity, specifically the color scheme and logos. We honored this request, working with the client’s existing assets while giving the overall website a modern, sleek design. Though the client had minimal input on the design itself, they were very happy to trust our creative direction, and we delivered a visually appealing, fully functional site that felt like a natural progression from their previous branding.
Consolidating Two Websites into One
One of the challenges in this project was combining two separate websites into a single, streamlined online presence. The client had been operating with two distinct sites, which caused issues with navigation and consistency. We carefully merged the content, ensuring that no valuable information was lost in the process. The new site is more user-friendly and cohesive, providing visitors with a seamless experience across all sections—from services to case studies and blog updates.
Custom WordPress Development
To provide the client with a website that would stand the test of time, we rebuilt the site using a custom WordPress theme. This allowed us to implement modern web functionality and create a responsive, user-friendly design. The flexibility of WordPress means the client can easily manage updates to their blog, case studies, and services, all while ensuring the site continues to run smoothly as their business grows.
Key Features: Services, Case Studies, and Blog
The rebuilt site features several key areas that are important to the client’s business. The services section highlights the underpinning company’s expertise, while the case studies showcase successful projects, giving potential clients a sense of the company’s capabilities. The blog serves as a place for news and updates, helping to engage visitors with fresh content and company news. A dedicated section also offers a historical overview of the company, emphasizing their legacy and experience in the industry.
Virtue Web Solutions exceeded expectations once again with the rebuild of the underpinning company’s website. They managed to balance modern design trends with the client’s existing branding, creating a site that felt fresh yet familiar. The consolidation of two websites into one was handled seamlessly, and the new site is a huge improvement in terms of functionality and usability.
Virtue Web Solutions consistently produces top-quality work, and I have no hesitation in recommending them for any web design and development project.
