"From the offset Yarm Webcraft understood our services, vision and how we wanted to be portrayed on the World Wide Web and were able to expand on this and produce a website that we loved from the beginning. Owen kept us in the loop at all stages of the design.. All deadlines were met and bettered and since the website has gone live we have had continuous support."
Karen O'Donnell, Yarm
"I cannot thank Owen enough for the high-quality, professional and yet friendly website he has created for me. His professional experience and knowledge about web design is clearly evident not only in the final product, but during the process of the website design. Owen takes a personal approach with his clients, meeting regularly to discuss each step of the 'building' process. He took the time to learn about my profession and aims of my business and we talked through ideas and layout together so I felt that I was involved in the website's creation. I will certainly be recommending Owen to anyone I know/meet who is looking for a web designer."

"Huge thanks to Owen at Yarm Webcraft for building our new website. It looks even better than we could have hoped for and we are already receiving great feedback from clients about it. This ended up being a complicated build because of our existing host making things awkward and we also had very specific requirements for the site. But Owen's expertise, creative ideas, business knowledge and the face to face meetings meant we got what we needed. I was very worried about building a new website as our exisiting site was doing OK, but we needed a more professional look and Owen has done an amazing job!"
Lianne Bell, Ingleby Barwick

"We are delighted with our website. Owen communicated with us though out. He made our journey so much easier by always being there to update our requests and believe me we had many. This is our first online venture and l highly recommend Yarm Webcraft as Owen explained everything to us clearly every step of the way. Owen is professional but friendly which made us feel at ease."

"I recently had a new website and landing page designed and built by Yarm Webcraft, as everyone knows its a mine field out there looking for a reliable trustworthy company who can deliver what they offer.

I would certainly recommend the services of Yarm Webcraft to anyone who is looking for a friendly reliable company that provides an excellent service and great customer care."

"I was looking for a web designer for a new business venture and came across Owen online. We set up a meeting that same week to discuss what I needed for my new website. Owen was fantastic and talked me through everything step by step as I had never had a website before and I wasn’t really sure how to go about even getting one. He was extremely helpful throughout the process and I was able to be involved in everything from start to finish, his communication is brilliant. I was extremely happy with the website that Owen created for me and I have since had 2 more built by Owen. 5 star service, friendly and approachable."

"We found working with Owen from Yarm Webcraft an absolute pleasure. Owen is very talented, patient and hard working. Our website was delivered on time to the specification discussed and more importantly on budget. We can’t recommend the service he offers highly enough. In fact, we will be looking to work with Owen again on another project later on this year. Keep up the good work!"

"What really impressed me was Owen's ability to recognise what my needs to make my website successful and generate customer enquiries. Although it's still early days I have received positive feedback regarding the quality of the website. With a quality website in place I now have the confidence to direct anyone to it as it demonstrates a level of professionalism to prospective clients. I also appreciate Owen's advice regarding updating my blogs and social media to keep things fresh and up to date with what's happening in my company and the driver training industry. Thanks Owen"

"Hi Owen, I wish to put on record how delighted I am with the quality of the Web Site you have designed for me, as you know I had a bad experience with my previous Web designer and was disillusioned to say the least. The Web Site you have created is far superior to any of my competition."

"I was looking for a web designer to create a website for my new business and came across Owen at Yarm Webcraft. After reading the numerous 5* reviews I decided to contact Owen. During our initial meeting he gave me lots of information about how to best proceed with a website and discussed what I wanted my website to achieve. Owen has since created me a fantastic website that does exactly what I need it to and looks very professional. He was lovely to work with and answered all of the questions I had very quickly. I would recommend his services to anyone. Thank you!!"

"I needed my 1st website built by someone reliable and who really knew what they were doing. Not being a 'teccie', I also needed someone to explain to me in simple terms how the process would work and what would be involved. Owen at Yarm Webcraft made it perfectly and simply clear how we would start and progress before deciding on the finished product. I am chuffed to bits with my site and Owen's continuing help has helped me tinker and change anything that I want to when I want. A really professional job, thanks!"

IMT Recruitment
"I am so happy I made the right decision when I asked Owen to build my website. I had not realised how complicated a build it would be and how much would be required on the administrative side of the site (not visible to the public) to make the website suitable for my business requirements. Owen is great to work with, he is incredibly patient making frequent required changes and giving constant support, not only during the build but also after. Owen has delivered a very professional and well-structured website that works across many platforms and represents my company at a very high level. It’s unusual to find someone who goes above and beyond your expectations to deliver! Thank you Owen!"

I am a self-taught web designer based in Stockton-on-Tees, who started out when there were no courses in web design and Google was still a fledgling search engine run from a garage! There wasn't much in the way of design software back then, so most websites had to be hand-coded from scratch (a practice I still enjoy today). I am also a qualified historian, with a postgraduate research degree from Teesside University. I permanently switched from the academic world to web design in 2010 and launched Yarm Webcraft the same year.
