Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
900 ms · 147 KiBAbout 147 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 62
62/100Your mobile performance score is 62 (desktop: 74). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
600 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.
Improve image delivery
316 KiB16 images could be 316 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
2,149 HTML elements
The page has 2,149 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, rechargecdn.com and Shopify and others), adding 635 KiB and 273 ms of main-thread time.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 115 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).
Use efficient cache lifetimes
32 KiB3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (32 KiB).
Legacy JavaScript
18 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 18 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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: 5.7 s
5.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
39 images without width and height

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.0 MB in 314 requests
3.0 MBYour homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 314 requests on a phone: other files 1.1 MB (180), images 1,020 KiB (33) and scripts 677 KiB (69). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (47 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.84 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.84 g of CO₂e: 100.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility
7 images without alt text

Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 2 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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.
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.
About 1,142 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,142 words of visible text.
3 checks passed

13Opening the homepage sets 13 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
