Two South Australian trade businesses rebuilt in October 2026. Both scored 100 for accessibility, best practice and SEO on launch.

Chris Barron Engineering home page: a dark blue hero with a bull bar finder

Chris Barron Engineering

Truck bull bars, Adelaide. Made since 1978.

A 400-page Joomla site rebuilt as a fast static site with a make-and-model finder, so drivers find their bar in two taps.

  • 595 bull bars across 15 makes and 86 models, searchable by truck.
  • Phone-friendly admin so office staff add bars and photos themselves.
  • 238 redirects so every old link and Google result still lands.
  • Home page 1.25 MB to 0.31 MB. Accessibility 81 to 100.

Burt's Hire home page: an excavator photo with a rates-at-a-glance card

Burt's Hire

Mini excavator and trailer hire, Williamstown.

A one-page site for an owner-operator. Everything a hire customer needs is on the first screen: the price, the machine, and a button that rings Burt.

  • Price before the first scroll. Rates at a glance in the hero, and an estimator that totals machine, attachments and days, GST included.
  • One tap to call. The number sits in the hero, and a call bar follows phone users down the page once the hero scrolls away.
  • Found in the right suburbs. Named service areas across the Barossa, Gawler and Adelaide, with business and FAQ data Google can read.
  • Real job photos that load fast. Eight photos from actual jobs, each under 130 KB, so the page is quick on a phone on site.

02What we build

Whatever your business needs online.

Everything is hand-coded, mobile-first and built to load fast on a phone in a paddock.

Launch websites

A sharp one-to-four page site that explains what you do, shows your work and gets the phone ringing. Written with you, set up on Google, and yours to keep.

For trades, hire, workshops and local services

Catalogue and finder sites

Hundreds of products, a finder that narrows by make and model, and an admin simple enough to use from a phone. Built for businesses with a lot to show.

For manufacturers, parts and equipment suppliers

Web apps and 3D

Interactive tools, dashboards, calculators and real-time 3D in the browser. When a brochure site is not enough, we build the thing itself.

For brands that want to stand out

Automation and fixes

Forms that reach your inbox, quote flows, bookings, integrations, speed and accessibility fixes on an existing site. Small jobs welcome.

For anyone whose website is making work instead of saving it

04How it works

From first call to launch day.

  1. Brief

    A short call or the form below. What you do, who you want to reach, what the site has to achieve.

  2. Build

    You get a live preview link, not a mock-up. Open it on your phone, send it to a mate, tell us what to change.

  3. Review

    We go through every page together, check the facts, test the form, and tune the words until they sound like you.

  4. Launch

    Domain pointed, Google told, forms tested on the live site, and a plain-English guide for whoever looks after it.

05About

Who you are dealing with.

The Web Shed is James Davey and Josh Pahl, two mates in Adelaide who run the business and build every site together. You deal with the two of us directly, not an account manager. That keeps the price honest and the work careful.

We care about the boring things that make a site work: speed, accessibility, correct facts, forms that arrive, and old links that still go somewhere. Then we make it look good.

No page builders. No invented statistics. No hidden links. No stock photos of handshakes. Just a fast site that tells the truth about your business and makes it easy to get in touch.
The house rules

06Questions

Before you get in touch.

How long does a website take?
It depends on the size of the site and how quickly the words and photos come together. You get a date with your quote, and a live preview link while we build so there are no surprises.
Do I own the website?
Yes. On final payment the domain, hosting account and all files are yours. No lock-in and no monthly fee unless you choose a care plan.
What do I need to give you?
A short chat about your business, your logo if you have one, and any photos. We draft the words with you, so you do not need to write the site yourself.
Can I update the site myself?
If you need to, yes. Catalogue sites get a simple admin that works from a phone. For a brochure site most clients just send us the change.
Do you work outside Adelaide?
Yes. We are based in Adelaide and most clients are in South Australia, but everything happens online so location is not a limit.
