MATCON Renovations

98Performance, desktop

Measured July 2026

Test it yourself

First appearance of a 5 year warranty, published in full.

The problem

MATCON is an award-winning, BBB-accredited family contractor with a 5.0 Google rating and a decade of finished homes. None of it was doing anything for them online. They wanted a site people would trust on first look, that ranked in the towns they serve, and that brought in quote requests.

The fix

Everything they'd earned went at the top of the page: the 2026 Canadian Choice Award, BBB A+ accreditation, the 5 year workmanship warranty, and the $0 deposit. Under the hood, a full local SEO layer targets every city in their service area, and a filterable gallery was built from hundreds of their own project photos. Quote requests land straight in the owner's inbox with the spam filtered out and no third-party form service in between.

Before and after

Trust signals

Local search

After: Structured data and per-city service areas, Ajax to Kawartha Lakes

Speed

Before: No public numbers
After: 98 Lighthouse desktop and no layout shift, measured on the live site

Under the hood

Local SEO, city by city

Structured data for a home construction business, per-city service areas from Ajax to Kawartha Lakes, and a sitemap that updates itself.

Credentials first

The award, the BBB A+ rating, the 5.0 Google reviews and the $0 deposit are the first things a visitor sees.

A gallery built from real work

A filterable gallery of hundreds of their own job site photos, compressed so it loads fast. Kitchens, bathrooms, additions, whole homes.

Quotes straight to the owner

The quote form emails the owner directly, with a honeypot to catch spam. There's no form service in between, and no monthly fee for one.

Full warranty, published

Their complete 5 year workmanship warranty is on the site, with a table of contents, for anyone who wants to read the terms before they call.

Dark mode, no trackers

A dark theme that doesn't flash on load, and no third-party trackers at all.

Build log

01. Intake

A family firm with a decade of finished homes and credentials that never made it onto their website.

02. Plan

The award, the warranty and the $0 deposit lead every page. The city-by-city search structure was settled before any design.

03. Build

A hand-coded layout, a filterable gallery cut from hundreds of job photos, and a quote form that goes to the owner's inbox with spam filtered out.

04. Launch

Live at matconrenos.com, with the full 5 year warranty published and every file handed over.
