Focus area 01 · Austin remodelers

Websites built to turn your best projects into quote requests.

I design and build websites for Austin-area remodelers and design-build firms: your best projects up front, a quote form that asks the right questions, and pages that open right away on a phone. One fixed price, and you own all of it.

Why it matters

A slow site can lose the client before they see your work.

People looking for a remodeler usually start on their phone, often right after a neighbor mentions your name. The next firm is one tap away.

What I build in so they stay

Pages that are ready the moment someone opens them, with nothing assembling itself while your customer waits.
Photos resized for every screen and served in the smaller photo formats phones prefer.
A quote button on every screen, and a quote form that asks for budget and timeline up front.
Only the extra pieces a site actually needs. No pop-ups, no bloat.

Concept build · fictional firm

Hollow Oak Design-Build

Hollow Oak is a made-up Austin-area design-build firm. I built its website so you can see exactly what you'd get before you spend a dollar.

It has project case studies showing scope, city, timeline, and budget range; a quote form that asks for budget and timeline up front; service-area pages; and a strip for your license, insurance, and warranty. Your site would be built on the same foundation, with your projects, your photos, and your name.

Hollow Oak is fictional. Its phone number, address, license, and projects are placeholders. Its photos are Unsplash-licensed stock, credited on the site.

Care Plan

$175/mo

first month included · 3‑month minimum, then month to month

Keeping the site online, the padlock on the address, and the settings that point your domain at the site
Uptime monitoring, security updates, updates to the pieces the site is built from, and backups I can restore
One new portfolio project added each month. You send photos and notes, and I build the page.
Up to 30 minutes of small edits a month: text, images, hours, team

New pages, features, and redesigns are billed as change requests.

Change requests

$150/hr

Anything outside the written scope. Like a change order, I quote it flat before I start, or bill hourly with a 1‑hour minimum. You approve it first.

What you own, from day one

Your web address: Registered in your name.
Your files: A copy of the site's files lives in an account you own.
Your content: You add new projects and drag in photos yourself, in a simple editor.
Where your site lives: The site runs on a fast worldwide network, in an account you own.

I'm an invited member of each account. If you ever want to part ways, I remove myself and hand over the keys. Nothing has to be moved, and the site keeps running.

On their free plans, a site like this typically has no bill for keeping the site online. If your traffic ever outgrows them, you pay those companies directly, not me.

How a build goes

Kickoff: a 45‑minute interview and a simple content checklist.
Homepage design for your approval.
The full site on a private preview link for your review.
Launch.

Each approval is in writing. An email that says "approved" is fine.

Who builds it

Hi, I'm Brandon Delgado.

I design and build every site myself, from first sketch to launch day. When you reach out, you get me. When something needs fixing, I'm the one who fixes it.

I started Shipmind after testing 20 local remodeler sites and seeing how many made great work wait to load, while the client who wanted to hire them waited too. Remodelers do careful, expensive work. Their websites should be built to win the next job.

I'm based in Austin, and I take one build at a time, so yours gets my full attention.
