About

The person behind ambercrest — bespoke web design for small businesses across the UK.

Meet Louie

I started ambercrest because I got tired of seeing small businesses stuck with the same handful of templates everyone else was using. Over 10 years I’ve designed and built websites the proper way, from scratch, around the business behind them, not squeezed into someone else’s layout.

I’m based in Manchester, but I work with businesses across the UK. Whether it’s a first website or a long overdue redesign, I care about the same things every time: clean design, a site that actually works properly on every device, and a straightforward process with no jargon along the way.

If you want a website that looks and feels like your business, not a template with your logo dropped in, that’s exactly what I do.

How we work

Chat first, no pressure

We start with a straightforward conversation about your business and what you’re hoping to achieve — no jargon, no pressure.

Design drafts, your feedback

You’ll see how things are shaping up throughout the build and get the chance to share feedback before anything is finalised.

Built properly, tested everywhere

Every site is built from scratch and tested across phones, tablets and desktops before it goes live.

Ongoing support, after launch

Once your site’s live, we’re on hand for edits, updates or advice whenever you need it.

My clients say it best

I don’t recall exactly how we met, but I’m very glad we did!


Louie has a complete handle on exactly what you need from a website. There are plenty of developers out there, but very few who combine technical skills with a genuine understanding of your business.


We’re now on our second website with Ambercrest — he just knows instantly what we want, and more importantly, he knows how to build it. That combination of design and development in one person is rare.


Can’t recommend highly enough.

Louie at ambercrest put together my website recently and I cannot speak highly enough of the service and professionalism within the process. 

I would have no doubt in recommending ambercrest for your business.
