Speed
Render-blocking requests
2.5 s9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.
Mobile performance score: 75
75/100Your mobile performance score is 75 (desktop: 100). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (website-files.com, Google Tag Manager and cloudfront.net and others), adding 1.1 MB and 426 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
380 ms · 146 KiBAbout 146 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 380 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
311 KiB13 images could be 311 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
website-files.com adds 189 ms
189 mswebsite-files.com costs a phone 189 ms of main-thread work and 892 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 15 KiBAbout 15 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 102 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 100 but mobile only 75. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Main-thread work: 0.9 s
A phone's processor spends 0.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 405 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.9 s
4.9 sYour largest element takes 4.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Black and white abstract graphic with the word 'Advisory' i…”.
First Contentful Paint: 3.2 s
3.2 sThe first text or image appears after 3.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
62 images without width and height
62 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Time to Interactive: 4.9 s
4.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 4.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 3.6 s
3.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 3.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
2 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 78 ms
78 msScripts block the page for only 78 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
6ac9b7ab77fd2b4ef5b5eb79_26five_hero_img_mobile_static-p-500 is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit
0.32 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.32 g of CO₂e: 38.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1.1 MB in 78 requests
1.1 MBYour homepage downloads 1.1 MB in 78 requests on a phone: images 628 KiB (62), scripts 394 KiB (10) and fonts 87 KiB (1). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
All page content should be contained by landmarks (7 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
4 form fields without a label
4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
3 links without text
3 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 62 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
39 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 42 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Security and trust
No Content-Security-Policy
No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
No clickjacking protection
Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.
No X-Content-Type-Options

Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (26five.com).
Valid certificate (73 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for 26five.com and is valid for another 73 days.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://26five.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 32 links work
All 32 links checked from your homepage (30 internal, 2 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
