JTS Tree Expert — Mobile-First WordPress Website for a Bay Area Tree Service
JTS Tree Expert is a family-owned tree care company in the Bay Area. I designed and built a new five-page WordPress website around one goal: turning someone searching for a tree service into a free-estimate request, whether they're on a phone in the driveway or at a desktop.

A tree service website has to earn the call
Homeowners looking for tree work are usually comparing a few companies at once, often on their phones, and they contact whoever looks established, trustworthy and easy to reach. A tree company also has to prove it works safely, because the job involves heights, power lines and people's homes.
The site had to feel premium without looking like a template, show the crew's real work, and make the next step obvious on every page. The challenge was to build something that:
- Looks established and trustworthy from the first screen
- Makes calling or requesting an estimate one tap away on mobile
- Shows real job photos instead of stock imagery
- Explains each service clearly, with a way to act on every one
- Collects estimate requests without asking for more than the crew needs
- Lets the client update text, photos and the logo without a developer
Because most visitors arrive on a phone, every layout was designed mobile-first and then scaled up to larger screens.
Five pages designed to lead to one action
I built a new WordPress website from scratch around the client's logo, with a deep green and gold palette that feels natural for tree care and still reads as premium. Every page shares the same header with a tap-to-call button and a free-estimate button, so the next step is never more than one tap away.
The homepage opens with a strong hero, a clear promise and the estimate form right beside it on desktop and directly below it on mobile. Below that, a short tree safety checklist helps homeowners spot warning signs and leads straight to a free inspection request.
The Services page gives every service its own photo, a plain description and two ways to act, estimate or call. Our Projects is a gallery of the crew's own job photos that open larger with a tap, and a reviews section features Yelp reviews from Bay Area customers.

Design & Build
Mobile-first, because that is where the calls come from
People searching for a tree service are rarely sitting at a desk, so I designed the smallest screen first. The header keeps a call button at the top of every page, the menu slides in from the right with the estimate and call buttons inside it, and the main buttons are full width and sized for thumbs.
The free-estimate form sits right below the hero so a visitor never has to scroll far to ask for a quote. On larger screens the same content opens up into a roomier two-column layout.
Photography does the heavy lifting. A dark green overlay keeps headlines readable over the hero image, and gold is used only for buttons and highlights, so the actions always stand out.
Trust first, then the estimate
Every section has a job: show the company is safe and experienced, then make it easy to get in touch.
- A Safety & CPR certified team badge and family-owned story at the top of the homepage
- Tap-to-call and free-estimate buttons in the header of every page
- A two-minute tree safety checklist that leads to a free inspection request
- Featured Yelp reviews from real Bay Area customers
- Real job photos in the gallery, with a tap-to-enlarge view
- A service page for every service, each with an estimate and a call button
- Business hours and languages (English and Spanish) shown beside the contact buttons
Small details that make it work
The estimate form is built with Fluent Forms and asks only for name, email, phone, city, the service needed and a note about the job. Nothing the crew doesn't need.
The menu is a right-side flyout linked to the WordPress menu, so adding or reordering pages never needs code. The logo, text and images can all be changed from the WordPress dashboard.
