It's Finally Live!


After three stressful and grueling weeks of daily coding and content writing, the new website is finally live! I feel like an mack truck has just been lifted off my shoulders and I'm so giddy I can't think straight to have this finally done.

Please give me honest feedback. If you like it, tell me. If you hate it, I'd love to know what about it you don't like. I'd like to know from a fellow tradesman's perspective and from a general user's perspective.

My goal was to make it easy on the eyes, easy to navigate, full of useful information with a little marketing strewn about. lol

Comments good or bad are welcome.

www.kandrconstruction.com or .net either one will get you there

I just feel such a relief it's done.

Re: It's Finally Live!


I really like it

Very nice and easy for a brochure site.
The only thing I noticed so far is that it loads a bit slowly. But otherwise everything is great.

Realpurty...I see why it took so long to build this website...it's excellent Very easy to browse through and a ton of info. However you should have used a frontal picture of yourself rather than looking back over your shoulder. And one tiny typo: should be old fashioned...I'd rate it 9.5

Re: It's Finally Live!


Who thinks Ken owes Robin a night out on the town?

For all the work she did on their website, I'm thinging Steak & Lobster dinner and all the cosmopolitans she can drink!

What does everyone think?

I think they would both be better if they were just square pictures instead of trying to cut them out around your head. Just a thought.

Re: It's Finally Live!


Nice looking site..........Just curious, how is the "Certified Aging in Place" thing working out for you, I have considered certification, just never acted on it. Aside from having the title, is the process enlightning, or is it more of the same common sense Handicap and disability stuff.

How does your Free estimates program work? is it for all your services?
