Description
Website: www.handypete.co.uk
SUMMARY
I have a live, functional single-page WordPress website that already does everything I need. The site works, but it doesn’t look as professional/polished as I’d like and there are a few minor layout/usability glitches.
I want an experienced WordPress designer/front-end developer to improve the look, layout and user experience WITHOUT adding new features or changing functionality.
This is a refinement/tidy-up job — not a rebuild.
WHAT I NEED
- Improve overall look and feel (cleaner, more modern, more professional)
- Improve spacing, alignment, typography and visual consistency
- Improve mobile and tablet display (responsive tidy-up)
- Fix minor visual/layout glitches
- Keep the site simple, fast and easy to use
- Create a basic Privacy Policy page (template content is fine for a small UK service business)
- Add a simple cookie acceptance banner/notice (lightweight and non-intrusive)
WHAT I DO NOT WANT
- No platform change (must remain WordPress)
- No rebuild from scratch
- No new functionality beyond what already exists
- No e-commerce, booking systems, or SEO upsells/packages
- No long-term maintenance contract
- No unnecessary plugins or heavy frameworks
TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
- WordPress only
- Single-page site remains single-page
- Minimal plugin use/changes preferred
- Changes should be sensible, lightweight, documented, and future-proof
DELIVERABLES
- Improved live website (or staging first if preferred)
- Privacy Policy page added
- Cookie acceptance banner active
- Brief summary of changes made
- Confirmation that no unnecessary plugins/features were added
BUDGET & TIMING
- Budget-conscious project
- Fixed price preferred
- Timescale flexible but reasonable
IDEAL FREELANCER
- Strong WordPress + front-end experience
- Good eye for clean, practical design
- Experience improving existing sites (not only full builds)
- Communicates clearly in plain English
IMPORTANT – PROPOSAL REQUIREMENT

TO APPLY, PLEASE INCLUDE
1) 1–2 examples of WordPress sites you’ve improved/refined
2) A short explanation of how you improve design without over-engineering
3) Confirmation you understand this is a visual/usability + light compliance update only (not a rebuild)

Hey Peter, To ensure I deliver exactly what you need, could you clarify:
Do you have a staging site already, or should I set one up before making changes?
Are there specific fonts or brand colours you’d like me to align with?
Should the cookie banner comply with UK GDPR standards using a minimal solution?
Is there a preferred method for adding the Privacy Policy as a standalone page or linked from the footer?
Are there any known layout issues you’d like me to prioritise?
-

Before I begin, I just want to clarify one thing to make sure the refinements match your expectations. Would you prefer all changes to be made directly on the live site, or should I work on a staging copy first and apply everything once you’re happy with the result?
