Render-blocking requests
1.3 s19 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.
Mobile performance score: 24
24/100Your mobile performance score is 24 (desktop: 59). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.1 s
A phone's processor spends 7.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
5,942 HTML elements
The page has 5,942 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Improve image delivery
550 ms · 997 KiB27 images could be 997 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 550 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, ZenDesk and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 552 ms
552 msShopify costs a phone 552 ms of main-thread work and 585 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 JavaScript
578 KiBAbout 578 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
ZenDesk adds 273 ms
273 msZenDesk costs a phone 273 ms of main-thread work and 396 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.
17 long tasks on the main thread
17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 298 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 12 KiBAbout 12 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
129 KiB18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (129 KiB).
Minify JavaScript
22 KiB22 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
17 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 17 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 59 but mobile only 24. 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify CSS
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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.
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 map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
About 537 words of copy
The homepage carries about 537 words of visible text.
Urgency cues
The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).
5 checks passed
