Fire, flour
& patience.
Most local businesses lose customers before anyone walks in
to a site that's slow, dated, or impossible on a phone.
Kestrel is a small studio that fixes that, properly, for the places people actually love.

Your accounts
stay yours.
You own everything
Domain, site and accounts are in your name.
We never ask for passwords
You add us as a manager. One click removes us.
Access ends when you say
When the job's done, we remove ourselves.
It's all in writing
A one-page agreement before any work starts.
Is the free homepage really free?
Yes. If you don't want to go ahead, you owe nothing and we take it down. We only offer it to businesses we're confident we can help.
How long does a full site take?
Usually one to two weeks after you say yes. The slowest part is normally gathering photos and text, and we can help with both.
Are there any other costs?
Only things you'd own anyway: your domain (about $15 a year) and any paid tools you choose, like business email. We tell you upfront.
Do I own the website?
Yes. Your domain and content are yours. If you ever leave, we hand everything over.
Can you just fix my current site?
Sometimes. Often a rebuild costs less than patching an old site. Send it over and we'll tell you honestly.
