Website Diagnostic & Scope Lookup — Gorvansi
Clients rarely know whether they need a full rebuild, an hourly refactor, or a static digital business card. They simply know their current site loads sluggishly, breaks on a mobile phone, or cannot be edited without breaking the design.
This interactive tool runs client symptoms against our published rates to return an immediate, non-binding scope recommendation and price bracket.
We do not believe in opaque discovery fees. In most cases, a brief technical inspection of a site's document object model, script payloads, and CMS configuration reveals the exact root cause in less than twenty minutes. The tool below codifies that diagnostic logic using our verified Denver operating figures.
estimated_budget = base_scope_rate × platform_modifier + (custom_code ? +25% : 0) + (seo_marketing ? +15% : 0)
Governed strictly by our operator figures: Digital Cards ($3,500–$16,000), Foundational Sites ($15,000–$25,000), Redesigns ($20,000–$60,000), Hourly Engineering ($90–$175/hr), Studio Overflow ($100–$200/hr), and Freelance Tiers ($15–$75/hr). Minimum engagement threshold: $1,000–$10,000.

Understanding the Diagnostic Tradeoffs
When a website owner encounters sluggish response times, the initial instinct is usually to purchase an enterprise caching plugin or upgrade hosting tiers from $20 to $120 a month. In nearly eight out of ten audits we conduct, hosting hardware is completely blameless. The actual failure is architectural: dozens of scripts competing for the main thread before the first contentful paint can render.
Similarly, layout glitches on mobile screens are rarely solved by adding more nested containers in a visual drag-and-drop builder. The true remedy is stripping away fixed-width styling, applying fluid CSS clamp() formulas, and enforcing strict 44-pixel minimum touch targets across every navigation element.
| Symptom Detected | Underlying Technical Cause | Recommended Service Route | Estimated Timeframe |
|---|---|---|---|
| Over 3-second mobile load time | Uncompressed assets, competing third-party tag managers, bloated CSS | Direct Hourly Refactor or Redesign | 1 to 3 weeks |
| Horizontal scroll on smartphone | Hardcoded pixel widths, non-wrapping display type lockups | Freelance Tier 1 Layout | 2 to 4 days |
| Trapped in rigid template builder | Proprietary markup bloat, inability to export clean HTML/CSS | Basic Foundational Site | 3 to 6 weeks |
| Need ongoing ad-hoc fixes | Staff lack dedicated front-end development capabilities | Direct Hourly ($90–$175/hr) | On demand |
What quotes depend on at our Denver studio
Every quote we deliver is derived from five variables:
- Task complexity: Simple static layouts versus interactive state calculators and custom API integrations.
- Total page count: A high-density single-page business card requires substantially less time than a forty-page content architecture.
- Presence of custom code: Handwritten semantic HTML and vanilla JavaScript vs. off-the-shelf theme tuning.
- SEO and marketing additions: Structured JSON-LD schema graphs, meta tags, and organic URL redirection mapping.
- Delivery timeline: Standard production cycles versus accelerated emergency turnaround sprints.
