Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
5.2 s · 577 KiBAbout 577 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.2 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
1.9 s · 421 KiB5 images could be 421 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 54
54/100Your mobile performance score is 54. 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 (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Civic and others), adding 1.4 MB and 605 ms of main-thread time.
Google CDN adds 295 ms
295 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 295 ms of main-thread work and 742 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
300 ms · 67 KiBAbout 67 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 205 ms
205 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 205 ms of main-thread work and 310 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 39 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 39 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 13 KiB3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (13 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
150 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 145 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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
Page weight: 3.1 MB in 63 requests
3.1 MBYour homepage downloads 3.1 MB in 63 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (25), images 1.1 MB (12) and other files 353 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
4 images far larger than shown
223 KiB4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example ingram-barge-bridge-closeup.webp at 1,440 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 223 KiB.
2 images below the first screen load straight away
2 images further down the page (148 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.88 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.88 g of CO₂e: 105.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
ARIA attributes must conform to valid values (1 element)
ARIA attributes must conform to valid values: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (19 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 19 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
1 checks passed
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. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

AI search readiness

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 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.
Only about 155 words
The homepage has only about 155 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
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.
5 checks passed
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Join Our Team” and “Contact us”.
1 short form
A short form (5 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

2 cookies set on arrival
2Opening the homepage sets 2 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

Loading the homepage contacts 9 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
