Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.3 s · 526 KiBAbout 526 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 1.1 s
1.1 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 1.1 s of main-thread work and 953 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Mobile performance score: 20
20/100Your mobile performance score is 20. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and Lucky Orange and others), adding 1.3 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.
Main-thread work: 3.9 s
A phone's processor spends 3.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 60 KiBAbout 60 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.
13 long tasks on the main thread
13 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 308 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Render-blocking requests
250 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 250 ms.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
200 ms · 46 KiB10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (46 KiB).
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.

Speed Index: 6.9 s
6.9 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
4 images without width and height
4 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+8%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.7 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.7 MB in 208 requests
2.7 MBYour homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 208 requests on a phone: scripts 1.4 MB (53), other files 777 KiB (113) and fonts 273 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

0.77 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.77 g of CO₂e: 92.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

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.
