Overview

The Project

Summit Handyman V2 turns Brody Robertson's business from a one-page trades presence into a full local trust platform for Langley, Surrey, White Rock, Aldergrove, Abbotsford, Cloverdale, and the Lower Mainland. The site is built around the real buying anxiety in home repairs: Will the handyman show up, scope the work clearly, communicate in writing, and be the person who actually does the job?

Pages / Routes

133 sitemap URLs: 92 service pages, 26 repair guides, 7 service-area pages, core pages, legal pages, sitemap, and quote/review/contact routes.

What We Built

The Build

We built a custom Next.js site with a premium dark visual system, direct quote path, owner-operated positioning, service and area architecture, review proof, recent work framing, repair-guide content, and clear legal/support pages. The site now gives homeowners and property managers multiple ways to trust Summit before they submit a repair list: service specificity, written-estimate expectations, local coverage, Google review proof, and practical education.

Key Highlight

The strongest strategic move is making Brody the trust anchor. The site does not sell a faceless crew or generic contractor network. It sells one licensed and insured handyman, one standard, one written scope, and one person accountable for the work.

Case Study

The thinking behind the build

The old Summit presence did the basic job: explain the service and give people a way to make contact. V2 changes the category. Instead of feeling like another handyman website, it now feels like a serious owner-operated service business with standards, documentation, and a clear process.

The strategy was to make reliability visible. The homepage leads with the strongest promise: handyman repairs without the chase. The supporting details matter because they answer the silent buyer objections: Brody is licensed and insured, the scope is written, the minimum is clear, the service area is specific, and Brody is the one doing the work.

The content architecture is the major upgrade. A 133-URL sitemap lets Summit compete for specific service and location intent rather than relying on one generic landing page. Service pages capture what people need fixed. Area pages match how locals search. Repair guides build trust before the quote request. The quote page turns loose repair lists into written next steps.

From a conversion perspective, the site reduces perceived risk before asking for action. Homeowners are not just buying a repair; they are deciding who they trust inside their home. Property managers are deciding who will communicate clearly and not create more follow-up work. The design, copy, reviews, guide content, and quote flow all point at the same answer: Brody handles it properly.
