Callands Fire & Rescue has an active, engaged following on Facebook and neighbors who turn out for every breakfast and festival. But callandsfireandrescue.org has sat on a blank "under construction" placeholder since October 2024, so all of that community energy points at an empty page.
The site is identical either way. The only difference is who keeps it updated: us, on a simple monthly plan, or you, with a built-in editor.
"We just want it handled." No logins to learn, no software to manage.
You would rather handle your own updates and skip a monthly bill.

Looks and works great on every phone, tablet, and desktop.
Meets WCAG 2.1 AA so all residents can use it.
Lightweight build with HTTPS / SSL. No bloated platform.
We point callandsfireandrescue.org at the new site with no downtime.
Set up so Google can find your events, volunteer, and donate pages.
In both options, the website and domain stay the department's. No lock-in, ever.
Open callandsvfr.frontlinewebdesign.tech on your phone and share it with the other leaders at the department.
Tell me which of the two fits your department best. Happy to hop on a quick call to talk it through.
We swap in any final photos, event dates, and details, and confirm everything reads exactly right.
We point your existing callandsfireandrescue.org at the new site (a simple DNS change, no downtime), check every device, and you are live, usually within 3 to 5 days of your go-ahead.
Check your option, sign, and send it back. Or just call or text me and we will get started.
Everything spelled out, so there are no surprises.
Payment & Terms: A deposit based on your chosen package gets us started; the balance is due once the site is fully complete and the domain is set up and live. Managed plans are then billed monthly through Stripe (secure card) from go-live, month-to-month with no contract, cancel any time, and prepay a year for two months free. Leave a managed plan any time and the site and domain stay yours, with a full hand-off. Optional add-on: online donations, accept cards right on the site, available whenever you want it. Pricing valid 30 days from the date above; once you pick a plan I will send a secure Stripe link to get started.
Credit & showcase. The finished site includes a small "Website by Frontline Web Designs" credit in the footer, which we remove on request. Frontline may also feature the completed site as a work sample in its portfolio and on social media.
