Speed

2 to fix81
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.3 s

    15 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.3 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 81

    81/100

    Your mobile performance score is 81 (desktop: 99). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    170 ms · 54 KiB

    About 54 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 170 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 39 KiB

    12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (39 KiB).

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Cloudflare CDN and Google Analytics and others), adding 343 KiB and 82 ms of main-thread time.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    10 ms · 31 KiB

    About 31 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 10 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    24 KiB

    1 image could be 24 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 59 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 1 ms

    1 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix83
  • First Contentful Paint: 3.0 s

    3.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.0 s

    4.0 s

    Your largest element takes 4.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Looking for a home improvement contractor?”.

  • Time to Interactive: 4.0 s

    4.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.5 s

    3.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 1 image without width and height

    1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

2 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (27 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.11 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.11 g of CO₂e: 12.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Page weight: 387 KiB in 34 requests

    387 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 387 KiB in 34 requests on a phone: scripts 147 KiB (7), stylesheets 77 KiB (14) and fonts 76 KiB (1). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 7990
  • 1 image without alt text

    1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • 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.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Headings skip levels

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

1 checks passed
  • 18 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 22 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 18 passed and 4 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 8388
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Only 1 internal link

    The homepage links to only 1 page on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • Open Graph partly set

    Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Looking for a home improvement contractor?”.

  • Title: 37 characters

    Your title is a healthy 37 characters: “Contact Basement Systems, Inc. Today!”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is http://www.throofing.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: HomeAndConstructionBusiness.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.throofing.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • Organization data is thin (1 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.throofing.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

1 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

    Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 6989
  • 6 JavaScript errors while loading

    6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.throofing.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure script 'http:/…”.

  • No HTML doctype

    The page has no <!DOCTYPE html>, so browsers render it in quirks mode.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Mixed content”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    20 of 20 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

5 to fix50
  • 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 calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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.

  • Only about 108 words

    The homepage has only about 108 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 form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 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.

  • 5 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at throofing.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
