You don't need another agency quoting you 8 weeks and $20k. You need a site that loads fast, ranks locally, and doesn't require a developer to update a headline.
Your current site loads like it's on dial-up and visitors bounce before they ever see your offer.
Google maps shows your competitor above you — even though you've been in Forsyth County twice as long.
Your site looks fine on desktop and unusable on a phone, which is where 70% of your traffic actually lives.
Every small change means another $150 invoice from the freelancer who built it two years ago.
