A showcase site for an all-makes independent mechanic near Aigle, built to turn a visitor into a quote request on WhatsApp.
Seb repairs, services and diagnoses everyday cars, for private owners and small businesses alike. He only had an Instagram account: I gave him a proper shopfront, dark and square like a workshop, that earns trust in three seconds.
Everything on it comes from his real work: his real figures, his real jobs, his real workshop photos. Nothing invented, no inflated positioning, just the trade shown as it is.
Serious as a workshop.
Where it started
Seb repairs, services and diagnoses everyday cars, for private customers and businesses alike. His order book filled up through word of mouth, with an Instagram account as his only online presence: nothing to show a new customer who wants to check who they are trusting with their car.
He needed a shopfront that builds trust in three seconds, and turns that trust into a quote request.
The approach
Every bit of content comes from his real work: his real numbers, his real jobs, his real workshop photos. Nothing invented, no inflated positioning, just the trade shown as it is, in an identity as dark and square as a workshop: condensed capitals, stencilled numbers, fixed-width data.
The site even opens like a garage door: a blue screen, the logo appears, a bar fills up, then the page lifts and reveals the workshop.
The build
The heart of the site is his jobs: twenty-seven recent ones, all shot on site. Each one is a workshop card, stamped with a number and a job type, with the real photo of the car in the garage. You filter by nature (servicing, brakes, timing belts, inspections…) and click to read the work order, step by step.
And a single call to action, everywhere: message Seb on WhatsApp. No form, no inbox gathering dust: you click, describe the problem, and talk straight to the mechanic.
What it changed
A new customer can now check in three seconds who they are dealing with: 150 cars repaired, 19 brands, five years of experience, and 27 documented jobs with photos to back them up.
Getting a quote takes one tap, free, clear and with no strings attached, straight into the mechanic's pocket. A shopfront site with one job, done well.
