Speed
Mobile performance score: 71
71/100Your mobile performance score is 71. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
350 ms · 39 KiB8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (39 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
350 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.
1,682 HTML elements
The page has 1,682 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 41 KiBAbout 41 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 35 KiBAbout 35 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 56 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.

Images and page weight
About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit
0.34 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.34 g of CO₂e: 41.2 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: 1.2 MB in 144 requests
1.2 MBYour homepage downloads 1.2 MB in 144 requests on a phone: scripts 542 KiB (80), images 394 KiB (26) and fonts 107 KiB (3). 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
All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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 86 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 1 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Your meta description is 231 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
2 links with vague text
2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

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.

Email authentication score: 70/100
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.
