Can I update my service list and prices myself after the site is built?

Yes. We can set it up so you can edit services, prices, and photos without touching any code. If you'd rather just text us the changes, we can handle that too.

I don't have professional photos of my shop or my work. Is that a problem?

Not really. Phone photos of actual repairs, your shop, your team — those work fine and honestly look more real than anything staged. We can help you figure out what to shoot.

How does online booking work for an auto repair shop?

It can be as simple as a form where someone picks a service, picks a day, and leaves their phone number. You get a notification, you confirm or call them back. It doesn't have to be complicated — it just has to exist.

Do I really need a website if most of my business comes from regulars?

Your regulars already know you. A website is for the people who don't — the folks who just moved to Hawkins, or the person whose usual shop is backed up, or the guy whose truck broke down on 80. Those people are going to search online first.

What if I already have a website but it's outdated?

We'll take a look at it. Sometimes it makes sense to rebuild from scratch, sometimes we can rework what's there. Either way, the goal is the same — something that actually works and doesn't make your shop look like it closed in 2018.

Web design for auto repair shops in Hawkins

You probably already tried the DIY route. Maybe a site builder, maybe a buddy who knows computers. It looked okay for a week, then you forgot the login and now the hours are wrong and half the links don't go anywhere. That's not a website — that's a problem you're ignoring.

You've been through this already

So you set up a free site somewhere. Or paid somebody a couple hundred bucks to throw something together. And it technically exists. But nobody's calling from it. Nobody's booking from it. It just sits there with your phone number and a stock paragraph about how you're "committed to quality service" that could apply to literally any shop in East Texas.

Meanwhile your customers in Hawkins and the surrounding area are searching for brake jobs, oil changes, AC repair — and they're finding whoever has a site that actually answers their questions. If your site doesn't list your services, show your work, or make it dead obvious how to schedule a drop-off, people just move on. They don't call to ask. They don't dig around. They leave.

And the worst part? You might not even know it's happening. There's no notification that says "hey, someone looked at your site and left because it took eight seconds to load and the menu didn't work on their phone." It just quietly costs you jobs.

What your shop's site actually needs to do

Forget bells and whistles. An auto repair website in a town like Hawkins needs to do a short list of things really well:

1. **Show every service you offer.** Oil changes, brake work, diagnostics, transmission, tires — whatever you do, it needs to be listed clearly. Not buried in a paragraph. A real service menu with descriptions. If you want to include pricing, even better. People love knowing what to expect before they call.

2. **Make booking or drop-off easy.** Whether that's an online form, a click-to-call button, or a simple way to request an appointment — it needs to be obvious and fast. One tap on a phone. That's it.

3. **Prove you know what you're doing.** Before and after photos of actual repairs. Info about your ASE certs or manufacturer training. Years in the trade. The stuff that makes someone trust you with their truck before they've ever met you.

4. **Load fast and work on every device.** Most people finding you are on their phone. If the site stutters or looks weird on a small screen, you've already lost them.

What this costs and how fast it happens

For most auto repair shops, a full website with a service menu, booking setup, photo gallery, and mobile-friendly design starts at $1,500. That usually takes about a week. You give us your info, your photos, your service list — we build it and hand it over.

If you also want to show up when people in Wood County search for things like "mechanic near me" or "auto repair Hawkins TX," that's where adding SEO makes sense. A website plus SEO starts at $3,500 and takes one to two weeks. And if you want to keep that ranking going and add Google Ads on top, ongoing SEO and ads run $750 a month.

Hosting is $50 a month. That covers keeping the site live, secure, and updated.

We're a web design shop out of Tyler. Small team. You talk to us directly, we build the thing, and we don't disappear after launch. Hawkins is a small town — your shop's reputation matters more than a flashy design. We'd rather build you something honest that brings in real calls from real people around Mineola, Quitman, and the 80 corridor.
