    I realise the site is not completely finished, but with my grammar hat on, I can see the business name spelt three different ways.

    There is Shaw Garden, Shaw Garden's and Shaw Gardens.

    I suspect it is the latter that is correct.

    Also be careful about capping up words that shouldn't be, it can be confusing to readers, for example, Professional, Golf Courses, Soft, Turfing.

    And on the front page you have three different styles in the first three paragraphs, keep things very plain and simple when it comes to text.

    You can't be sure what people are reading your website on, from a small mobile phone to a large screen, or what age they are and how confident they are in using the internet.

    So the fewer potential trip up points the better.

    Hope this helps, but any questions just shout.

    For my other company, Southern Landscape Contracts, we have both a mobile and a desktop site.
    See www.slcontracts.net from a mobile and a PC and you will see the difference!
