How Long Should a Website Redesign Take? (And Why Ours Takes Less)

Traditional web agencies often quote 6 to 12 weeks for a website redesign. For a small business, that's a long time to wait. Here's why the timeline is usually that long — and why it doesn't have to be.

Why traditional agencies take so long

Most agencies have long internal handoff processes: sales to strategy, strategy to design, design to development, development to QA. Each handoff adds time. They're also managing many clients at once, which means your project sits in queues.

Why ours takes less

We've built a streamlined process where design and development happen together, not sequentially. We use modern tools that let us move fast without cutting corners. And we focus on a clear brief upfront so there's no wasted back-and-forth.

Most of our sites are ready for client review within 3 to 7 business days, and live within a week or two of kicking off.

What "fast" doesn't mean

Fast doesn't mean low quality. Every site we build is mobile-responsive, SEO-optimised, and built for speed. Fast means we've optimised our process — not rushed yours.

If you've been putting off a redesign because you didn't want to be without a good site for months, that's exactly the problem we solve.
