What we do
We turn tired sites into working sales tools.
Three ways in, one standard for the work: the site has to earn its keep in calls, quotes, and booked jobs.
- Most projects
Existing site
The Rebuild
Your current site, rebuilt around what actually drives revenue — the phone, the quote form, the booking widget. Most of the jobs we take on.
- Timeline
- 4–6 weeks
- Price
- Scoped per project
A clearer path from visit to booked work.
Clean slate
The New Build
A site from scratch when the existing one isn't worth saving. New businesses, full rebrands, or owners who want to start clean.
- Timeline
- 5–8 weeks
- Price
- Scoped per project
A complete presence with the right foundation.
First move
The Audit
A written report on what your current site gets wrong, what it's costing you in missed calls, and whether a rebuild would pay for itself.

- Always free
A plain-English read on what to fix first.
How an Umber site is built
Everything a service-business site has to do.
Four things every Umber build is graded on — and what they look like when they’re working.
The call button shows up before they tap back.
Most of your customers find you on a phone in a parking lot. Every page is built thumb-first — buttons big enough, calls one tap away, no pinching to read.
Pages open in under two seconds on a phone.
Half of mobile visitors leave a slow site before it even finishes loading. Our last twelve builds score 98 on Google’s mobile speed test. The industry average is 54.
You own the code, the domain, the keys.
No retainers. No locked CMS. When we’re done you have everything — and you can hire anyone you want to work on it next.
- Code repository
- Domain & DNS
- CMS access
- Hosting account
- Analytics
- Brand kit & assets
Yours forever · hire anyone next
First name they see when they search nearby.
‘Roofer near me’ or ‘dentist near me’ is what wins your next customer. We build every site to rank in the local map pack — so they call you, not the shop two blocks down.

Vancouver questions
What BC owners ask first.
Don’t see yours? Ask us directly.
How much does a website cost in Vancouver?
Most rebuilds for Vancouver and BC small businesses land in the low five figures CAD; new builds run a bit higher. One flat fee on a one-page proposal, billed half to start and half on launch — no hourly rates, no retainers, no scope creep on the invoice.How much does logo design cost in Vancouver BC?
Logo design isn't sold separately. When a Vancouver business needs a logo, it's part of a New Build engagement — folded into the website work alongside the rest of the brand basics so the identity and the site ship together as one coherent piece.Are you actually based in Vancouver?
Honest answer: no. We're a Toronto studio that works with small businesses across Canada — including Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, Richmond, and the rest of the Lower Mainland. The day-to-day work happens remotely on a live preview URL, with calls scheduled in your time zone, not ours.Will the time zone difference cause delays?
It hasn't on any project we've shipped. We schedule calls in PST, share work-in-progress on a URL you can review on your own time, and keep a one-business-day reply standard. The three-hour gap usually works in your favour — feedback you send at end of day in Vancouver lands first thing the next morning here, and your changes are ready to review by the time you're back at your desk.What kinds of Vancouver businesses do you work with?
Service businesses where the website is doing real lead-gen work: roofing and HVAC across the Lower Mainland, dental and medical clinics, personal-injury and immigration law firms, freight and logistics. Same pattern as everywhere — the site has to ring the phone, fill the calendar, or kick a quote into the inbox.
