People first. Always.

Your business matters. To you. And to us.

We’re SJH Studio, the trading name of Sam Jay Heaton LTD. Our web design studio is at 4 Bridgeman Terrace in Wigan. Our team brings design, development and marketing together, starting with a proper conversation about your business, your customers and what you want to achieve.

Our web design and development bring your brand to life and make everyday tasks easier. That could mean a distinctive company website, a better online shop, or custom software and CRM integrations that connect the tools your team uses. We shape the work around your customers and the people running the business.

For a Wigan business, a national brand or a specialist team, the starting point is the same: what should the website help you do? We plan content and functionality around that answer, then connect the build with SEO and PPC where you need them. Enquiries, sales and the quality of the response matter alongside the way your website looks.

Local to Wigan? Arrange a studio visit to talk through your ideas, or meet us by video call. When you hit a snag, you get a real person. Not a bot, not a FAQ. Just someone who knows your website and wants to help. That care continues after launch, with hosting, updates and ongoing support.

Talk to our Wigan team

Starting something new?

Your first website needs to explain what you do, give people confidence in your business and make it easy to get in touch. Our web design service in Wigan brings the pages, content and visual design together around those jobs. We’ll talk through your audience, the questions customers ask and the details that make your business different. From an enquiry form to an online shop, we agree what you need for launch and what can follow as you grow.

Ready to improve what you have?

Website design in Wigan also means helping established businesses move forward. If your current site is difficult to update, awkward on a phone or no longer reflects your services, we can review it with you. We plan the page structure, design and development together, considering existing content, useful integrations and redirects where addresses change. We can connect the work with SEO and PPC, with enquiries and sales helping guide the next steps.

Come and meet us by arrangement at 4 Bridgeman Terrace, Wigan, or start with a call to 0161 399 4751. You’ll speak to the people doing the work, with ongoing care available after launch.

Before we get started

Good questions.
Honest answers.

Your questions about web design, costs, WordPress and support, answered by our Wigan team. For anything specific to your project, let’s talk it through.

Ask us anything
How long does it take to design and build a website?

The timeline depends on the number of pages, the features you need and how much content is ready. A focused business website needs a different plan from an online shop with a large product catalogue or custom integrations.

We agree the scope and schedule before we start, with time for discovery, design, development, your feedback and testing. If you have a launch date in mind, tell us at the enquiry stage so we can plan around it.

How much does web design in Wigan cost?

Our current studio pricing is based on your project: design, content, features, integrations and any work needed to move an existing site. A focused business website and a bespoke e-commerce build need different scopes. We provide a proposal from Sam Jay Heaton LTD for the work you need today.

Share what you need and the budget you have in mind. We’ll explain the options and provide a clear proposal, including any hosting, maintenance or ongoing marketing costs, before you commit.

Can you redesign our existing website?

Yes. We’ll look at what’s working, what’s holding you back and what needs to change. That might mean a focused refresh or a full rebuild.

We review your existing pages, content and search visibility before changing the structure. Where URLs change, we plan redirects so visitors and search engines can find the replacement pages.

What’s included in your web design service?

Your proposal sets out the design, development and content work included. We can bring together bespoke page layouts, responsive development, WordPress editing, enquiry forms, e-commerce and integrations.

We consider mobile usability, accessibility, page speed and SEO foundations as part of the build. Before launch, we test the agreed functionality and explain how to manage your site. Hosting and ongoing support can be included in your plan.

Do you build WordPress websites we can update ourselves?

Yes. We design and develop WordPress websites with editing tools for the pages and content your team needs to manage. We can also build WooCommerce shops and work with other platforms where they suit the project.

We show you how to use your site at handover. You can manage the content yourself or ask us for ongoing help with updates and improvements.

Can you help with SEO as well as web design?

Yes. We consider site structure, mobile usability, page speed, page titles and crawlability during the build. We also offer technical SEO, content and local search support for businesses looking to improve their visibility.

We’ll agree what is included in your website project and what needs ongoing work. Your audience, competition and goals shape the plan; we do not promise a particular Google position.

What happens after launch?

Launch doesn’t have to be goodbye. We can host and maintain your site, help with updates, or work with you on ongoing development, search and marketing. When something needs attention, you can talk it through with a real person who knows your website and wants to help.

If you’d rather take things forward yourself, we can hand over the finished site and show you how it works. We’ll agree the right level of support together.

Do we need to be based in Wigan?

No. Our studio is in Wigan, Greater Manchester, and we work with businesses across the UK and beyond. You still work directly with the people designing and developing your website.

If you’re local, get in touch to arrange a conversation at 4 Bridgeman Terrace, Wigan, WN1 1SX. We can also work together by phone, email and video call.

Why choose a web design studio in Wigan?

Choosing a web design studio in Wigan means you can meet the people responsible for your website and talk through the work together. At SJH Studio, you have direct access to the designers and developers, with account management keeping the practical details organised. Studio conversations are by arrangement at 4 Bridgeman Terrace.

Look at our recent work, read our clients’ Google reviews and talk to us about what you need. That gives you a practical way to decide whether our approach is right for your business.

What should we prepare before meeting your web designers?

You don’t need a finished brief. Bring an outline of your business, who you want to reach and what you want the website to achieve. Your current website, examples you like, an idea of your budget and any launch deadline give us a useful starting point.

For a local business, it helps to explain which services you offer, the areas you actually serve and the questions customers ask before enquiring. We can then plan the pages, content and contact options together, and identify where you need help with copy, photography or branding.

Can you help a small Wigan business with its first website?

Yes. Our web design service is for new businesses as well as established organisations. We start with the information your customers need: your services, the people behind the business, evidence of your work and a clear way to contact you.

We agree a scope that fits your priorities and budget, including which pages and features are needed for launch and which can follow later. You can also discuss domain names, hosting, business email and ongoing care with our Wigan team, so you understand what needs to be in place before the website goes live.
