honest opinion - dreadful

cramped - poor logo - banner is bad - spelling mistakes and poor code

Was that done by Ian? Was he in a rush? - not as good as his usual efforts

It's okay as a starter web site.

Few things to change......to jazz it up a bit........

1.  Change the font that is used as the main text.   Currently its probably set as "Times New Roman" or something similar.   Choose a font called Verdana, or Arial.  Much, much nicer to read and to look at.

2.  Add something extra to the HEADER, the long white bar that has your logo in it.

Other than that you should make more use of bold
Also try using some bullets points to make paragraphs more easier on the eye.

So this how some of your text looks at the moment.

Commercial and domestic high reach window cleaning.

Commercial and domestic traditional window cleaning.

Full conservatory cleaning, gutter, soffit and fashia cleaning.

Internal gutter clearing

This is how it could look.

I cant please everyone, most people that have seen it said they liked it.
logo is the guys logo.

we will see from the results it gets if it works.

please can you point out the spelling mistakes please as this was proof read earlier not by me.

Ian be honest, the code passed validation! only just , this is not your best work I have seen you do much much better. Did you throw your normal "cool design" work out of the window?

for example ht tp://www.mbswindowcleaning.co.uk/  nice design and good work  ;D

As a web designer isnt it your job to advise your client - especially when the logo isn't theirs of even if used with with permission it looks like crap.

Mate I don't want to be harsh as praise is often due to you but this time it isnt. I bet a £10 this took a few hours and you were in a rush.

Love your work normally as you know  ;) If ever I build one that bad please let me know

Hi Kev,

I did advise on logo and I did not rush this site. I know you are my biggest critic  ;D
You owe me £10  ;)

Don't look at me as a critic, look at me as a friend  ;D at least improve the layout and make the banner (white) more transparent and play with the logo to make it more acceptable and less pixillated.

Its his business after all  ;D

£10 charged for advice LOL  ;D ;D ;D
