Plumbing and gas projects across Western Australia
Background:
TOTAL Plumbing and Gas had an existing Squarespace site, but their business had evolved away from residential work into remote, mining, and commercial projects. The owner wanted a redesign that was more professional, reflected the services they now provided, and showcased their expertise to potential clients.
The Design Process:
After a quick call to discuss ideas and an e-proposal sent and signed, the process was smooth and efficient. The client provided updated content and images, and we took care of the rest, keeping it simple, fast, and aligned with their goals.
Once the initial content was supplied, a draft design was completed within 48 hours with placeholder text and image blocks so they could visualise the new layout and supply the remaining content accordingly.
The new design focused on a professional new look with clearer service offerings, a projects page with a custom filter that the client can easily add to, and a new careers page with a custom form with document upload feature.

Service Display on Home Page
In contrast to the original home page that tried to squeeze everything into a small square, we decided to let each service section be displayed within a lot more space - giving a more organised, spacious feel, and then allowing the visitor to click through for more information.
Colour Themes
We noticed the original white background was washing out the light blue and orange in the Total Plumbing & Gas logo, making it feel less impactful than it deserved. By introducing a rich dark teal background, we were able to make those brand colors really pop and give the site a much more substantial, professional presence.
We also added some custom touches to the navigation, creating smooth hover effects and updating the dropdown menus to seamlessly blend with the new color palette. These small but important details help create that polished, cohesive look that makes visitors take notice and builds instant trust.
Job Applications
The new Careers page features a clean, simple layout that Richard can easily duplicate for new job postings. We added a handy file upload feature so applicants can attach their resumes and certificates directly through the contact form, streamlining the whole application process.
Portfolio of Expertise
Richard wanted to showcase his team's impressive work and easily add new projects as they completed them.
We created a smart project gallery with custom filtering, plus made sure relevant projects automatically appear on each service page. This means visitors can quickly see the quality and scope of Total Plumbing & Gas's work, building confidence as they browse.
