About this project
What it does and how it was built
A marketing and lead-gen site for a construction contractor, built to convert homeowners and project owners browsing on their phones. The standout is the project gallery: original job-site photos were AI-enhanced — cleaned up, color-corrected, and sharpened — so genuine work reads as professional portfolio photography without misrepresenting the result. Service pages, a strong estimate CTA, and local-SEO structure round out the build.

AI-enhanced project photography
Original, real job-site photos were enhanced with AI — denoised, color-corrected, and sharpened — so authentic completed work presents like professional portfolio photography. The work shown is the contractor's own; only the image quality was improved.
