Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.4 s · 492 KiBAbout 492 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.1 s · 321 KiB8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (321 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 47
47/100Your mobile performance score is 47 (desktop: 81). 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, Facebook and TikTok and others), adding 1.1 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 343 KiB9 images could be 343 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 618 ms
618 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 618 ms of main-thread work and 525 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.
Facebook adds 364 ms
364 msFacebook costs a phone 364 ms of main-thread work and 280 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.
Main-thread work: 3.3 s
A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 281 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 56 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 56 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 81 but mobile only 47. 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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.8 MB in 181 requests
2.8 MBYour homepage downloads 2.8 MB in 181 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (56), images 812 KiB (16) and other files 707 KiB (91). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Porch_box_and_welcome_mat_Front_doorstep.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
1 image far larger than shown
55 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example Oberweis-Refined-Vintage-Logo__Black_2eb2ee40-273e-42fd-a927 at 2,048 px wide, shown at 133 px. Resized copies would save about 55 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (57 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.80 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.80 g of CO₂e: 95.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

SEO
No H1 headline
