We're Actually Based in Consett
Most agencies advertising “web design in Consett” are in Newcastle or Durham. We’re at Carterway Heads, which is about as Consett as it gets without being on Middle Street.
That matters more than it sounds. It means we can sit at your kitchen table rather than doing everything over email, and it means we know the difference between the businesses here and the ones an hour up the road. You’re mostly not chasing tourists. You’re trying to be the one people find when the recommendation runs out and they finally search for it.
It’s the same Northumberland web design work we’ve been doing for 25 years — Consett just happens to be where the kettle is.

The Businesses We Build For Round Here
Trades and construction, where the site needs to prove you’re real and get you a phone call. Local services, where somebody’s comparing three of you and picking on gut feel. Shops that want to sell a bit further than the front door.
Anvil Homes, the Consett-based homes developer, is one of ours — a good example of a local business that needed a site as solid as what it was selling. We’ve also built for first aid trainers, solicitors, counsellors and campsites across County Durham and Northumberland, so we’ve usually seen something close to your situation before.

What We Actually Do
Bespoke WordPress sites, branding, SEO, and drone photography when the building or the site is worth showing from the air. All of it in-house, all of it explained in English.
Most builds take two to three weeks from the first proper conversation to going live, and you’ll see the site as it comes together rather than us disappearing for a month and unveiling it.

What Actually Gets You the Phone Call
For most businesses round here it comes down to three things: the site loads quickly on a phone, it’s obvious within about five seconds what you do and where you do it, and your number is somewhere thumb-sized. Everything else — the animation, the clever layout — only matters once those three are right.
We build in that order of priority, which is why our sites often look simpler than the ones agencies put in their showreels. Simple tends to convert better, and it’s easier for you to keep up to date.

Every quote comes from one of our published packages, worked out before we start — not a day rate that quietly grows once you’re committed. Everything is plus VAT and there is nothing hiding in the small print.
If a job turns out simpler than we thought, we’ll say so. If you only need part of what you asked for, we’ll tell you that too — it’s a small town and we’d rather have the referral than the extra few hundred pounds.

Consett Web Design FAQs
Choosing the right partner for your Consett web design project is a big decision. To help you make an informed choice, we’ve compiled answers to some of the most common questions we receive about our creative process, services, and how we help local businesses succeed online.
Can we meet in person?
Yes, and we’d rather. We’re at The Granary, Carterway Heads — about ten minutes from Consett — so you can come to us, or we’ll come to you and sit at the kitchen table with a notepad. Projects tend to go better when we’ve seen the business and met the person running it, rather than working entirely off email.
I'm a sole trader — is a proper website worth it for me?
Often, but not always, and we’ll tell you which. If your work comes entirely from repeat customers and word of mouth, a modest site that loads fast and makes you easy to contact may be all you need. If somebody is choosing between you and two others, the site is frequently what decides it. We’d rather sell you the right small thing than the wrong big one.
Will my website show up on Google for Consett searches?
That’s the aim, and we build for it from the start — proper page titles, real local content, and a Google Business Profile that matches your site. What we won’t do is promise you the top spot, because nobody honestly can. What we will do is tell you where you actually stand and what would move it.
Can you look after the site once it's built?
Yes. We do ongoing maintenance — updates, backups, security and the occasional “can you just change this” — and plenty of clients keep us on for exactly that. If you’d rather run it yourself, we’ll train you and hand over the keys. Either way you’re not locked in.
What if I already have a website that's just tired?
Then a rebuild is often quicker and cheaper than you’re expecting, because the hard thinking about what your business does is already done. Send us the address and we’ll tell you honestly whether it needs replacing or whether it just needs a tidy-up and some decent photography.

His mastery of the technical details enables him to smoothly guide the uninitiated beginner through the complexities of digital technology. I can highly recommend Terry, who has built and maintained our three lovely websites.
His calm approach and knowledge are of great value to a technophobe like me. Give him a shout for your design work or website building.
Terry was excellent at explaining the complicated stuff (complicated to me anyway!). We're so lucky to have such a great company on our doorstep. Such a fantastic local business. Would highly recommend
As our business has expanded TWDA have been able to work with us to add further properties and web pages, and more recently more build specific branding and logos we have needed. A very talented, responsive and local company that we are so glad we found!
Although we retain admin access for the smaller updates, Terry remains on hand to sort out any glitches and requested changes which he does without question or delay.
I have also greatly appreciated his gentle manner and his endless patients. Terry has always gone the extra mile. I would highly recommend his service.
