The people behind your landscaping website

A website for a landscape gardening business has different tasks than the presence of an accountancy practice or an online retailer. It has to show what a finished surface looks like, because in this trade the eye decides. It has to make clear how far trailer and crew will travel, otherwise enquiries arrive from three districts away. It has to take the season into account, because months often pass between the first enquiry and the actual work. And it has to work on a phone, because your customers search in the evening on the sofa and your applicants during their lunch break. Anyone who does not know these four points builds a pretty site that changes nothing in day-to-day operation.

That is why we decided to work exclusively for this trade under Galabau-Homepage, instead of letting landscape gardeners run along as one sector among many. It saves you the explaining. We do not have to ask what a crew is, why an unbound construction is calculated differently from a bound one, or why planting work in August is a different discussion from planting work in October. Instead the conversation goes straight to your real question: which enquiries do you get too many of, which ones are missing, and what does the website have to do so that this balance shifts. What comes out of it in concrete terms is set out on the services page, and the individual trades are listed under sectors.

You run a business, drive from site to site, calculate quotes and hold your crews together. There is no time for long rounds of coordination, and our process is built around exactly that. We take on the bulk of the work ourselves and only involve you where your professional knowledge is irreplaceable: the trades, the projects and the question of which jobs you actually want. In practice the bottleneck is almost always the visual material, which is why we talk about it in the very first conversation rather than shortly before launch.

We do not assemble your website from a builder kit; we build it so that it loads quickly even on a weak mobile connection. In this trade that is not a nicety: a prospect standing on a farm track in front of their future plot and opening your site will not wait eight seconds. Everything runs in German data centres, backups are made daily and availability is monitored. Enquiries from the form contain names, addresses and sometimes photos of the plot, in other words data that should not pass through more systems than necessary. We therefore keep the chain short and do without add-on services nobody needs.

Our location is Söhlde in Lower Saxony, right between Hildesheim, Salzgitter, Peine and Hanover. This area is landscaping country: many detached houses with gardens, a great deal of eighties building stock now being renovated, and businesses that measure their operating area in driving minutes rather than in federal states. That proximity helps us, because we know how your customers search and which towns belong together for your area. For working with us, however, proximity is not a condition: we also look after businesses outside the region, and most of the coordination runs by phone, email and short video calls anyway. Which towns we cover in detail is listed under regions, and how the alignment with your operating area works is described on the local visibility page.
