aggregate.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Render-blocking requests
2.2 s15 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.2 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.3 s · 451 KiBAbout 451 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.3 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 62
62/100Your mobile performance score is 62. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
500 ms · 270 KiB19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (270 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 109 KiBAbout 109 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 298 ms
298 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 298 ms of main-thread work and 362 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.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 321 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
2,510 HTML elements
The page has 2,510 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Main-thread work: 2.2 s
A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 909 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Optanon and Google Fonts and others), adding 590 KiB and 424 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
53 KiB4 images could be 53 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Server response: 101 ms
101 msYour server sent the HTML in 101 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 7.4 s
7.4 sYour largest element takes 7.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “andy-jackson-bardon-hill-quarry-1.jpg”.
Time to Interactive: 10.2 s
10.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 10.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 5.5 s
5.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s
2.3 sThe first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 311 ms
311 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 311 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
5 images without width and height
5 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 11% slower for real visitors
+11%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 119 ms to 127 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.43 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.43 g of CO₂e: 51.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 1.5 MB in 64 requests
1.5 MBYour homepage downloads 1.5 MB in 64 requests on a phone: scripts 934 KiB (15), images 371 KiB (25) and stylesheets 89 KiB (11). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
11 text elements with low contrast
11 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 52 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 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.
SEO
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
9 links with vague text
9 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
509 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 509 pages on aggregate.com and 4 external pages.

AI search readiness

Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,532 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

holcim.co.uk is registered until Mar 2027.
Content and conversion
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 customer or partner logo. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
About 624 words of copy
The homepage carries about 624 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “LEARN MORE” and “CONTACT”.

Email authentication
Email authentication score: 95/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
3 checks passed
DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:emailsrvr.com include:_spf.google.com include:amazonses.com ip4:149.72.190.137 include:sendgrid.net incl…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
1 tracker load before any consent
1Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (OneTrust) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
1 cookie set on arrival
1Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).
4 other companies contacted
