Portfolio
Every Forged site below is live. Nonprofit, industrial, professional services, freight, a multiplayer game, a malpractice application — not a trades directory that gets interesting later.
Real Sites. Real Scores.
Each project page shows the site on desktop and mobile and what custom work went into the build. Where a speed snapshot helps, we publish it with the date we tested. Where the work is an application, a game, or a content site, we say that instead of pretending every card is a 90-plus PageSpeed demo. Links are live. Accessibility badges mean the client is on our ADA/WCAG maintenance program.
The Bench, Not a Trades Directory
Mission-critical accessibility, industrial B2B, higher-ed consulting, freight, a game, a hard insurance application — then home services.
Lions Services
Nonprofit — Blind Services
Lions Services is a Charlotte nonprofit that has been helping the blind help themselves since 1935, providing employment, training, and community programs — including its own manufacturing operation staffed by people with vision loss. Because the site serves screen-reader users directly, accessibility here is mission-critical, not a checkbox: the site was built to WCAG 2.2 AA, tested with NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver, and publishes its audit results on a public compliance report page.
Galvan Industries
Hot-Dip Galvanizing
Galvan Industries is a major hot-dip galvanizer serving structural and ornamental steel across the Southeast. The forged site carries the industrial catalog: HDG services, project work, employee profiles, a credit application, and a knowledge base — the public face of a plant, not a brochure template.
focusEDU
Higher Education Consulting
focusEDU is a boutique higher-education consulting firm: national searches, interim placements, evaluations, and strategic consulting across enrollment management, registrar, admissions, and student financial services. The forged site is the public home for that practice — services, team, ethics, and a contact path that does not sit on a plugin stack.
Apex Transit
Asset-Based Logistics
Apex Transit LLC is a family-owned, asset-based logistics partner moving freight across North America since 2012: truckload, LTL, expedited, cross-dock, dedicated, and government work. The forged site is built for shippers and for drivers and agents — quote paths, driver recruiting, and market pages — without a public CMS. Apex referred Top Automotive to us. That is the second-client snowball in real life.
Happiness Card Game
Tabletop Gaming
Happiness™ ("Share. Listen. Connect.") is a strategy-meets-storytelling card game where players place cards by matching pips and share personal stories to score and connect. We built the game's official home: rules, a gallery showcasing all 160 original alcohol-ink artworks, a shop page, and — the part we're proudest of — a real-time online multiplayer version of the game, playable right in the browser.
Custom multiplayer in the browser. Not a brochure site.
Cooke Insurance Group
Legal Professional Liability Insurance
Cooke Insurance Group is a specialty agency focused exclusively on law firms, placing legal malpractice, cyber liability, D&O, EPLI, and business coverage through A-rated carriers nationwide. The centerpiece of their forged site is a full Lawyers Professional Liability application — a working web version of a complex fillable PDF the firm had been unable to get built elsewhere, including a practice-area allocation matrix covering 40+ practice areas.
PDF-to-web application — 40+ practice-area allocation. Not a speed demo.
Top Automotive
Independent Porsche Specialists
Top Automotive Inc is an independent Porsche specialist in Concord, NC: factory diagnostics, OEM scheduled service, Mezger-powered 996/997 Turbo and GT work, DFI 991 through 992, and air-cooled 930/964/993. Nick Kalashnik found us because Apex Transit told him we existed. The forged site is live on their own domain.
Pure Cleaning Solutions
Commercial & Medical Cleaning
Pure Cleaning Solutions has been in business since 2002, running bilingual crews 24/7 across nine states with hubs in Charlotte, Indianapolis, and the Northern Virginia/DC metro — specializing in the niche work other cleaners decline, including medical and chemotherapeutic cleaning. Their forged site covers every service line and hub region, and funnels facility managers into a quote pipeline that accepts photos and RFP documents directly.
Mr. Outdoor Living®
Outdoor Living Design & Build
Mr. Outdoor Living® is a family-owned design-and-build company serving Charlotte and surrounding Carolinas communities for over 25 years, with more than 1,700 completed patios, outdoor kitchens, water features, and landscapes. We migrated them off WordPress with 1:1 URL parity — every legacy URL still resolves, so their search rankings carried over — and gave all 15 service pages custom animated video heroes.
Get Into the Wildlife
National Parks & Family Travel
Get Into the Wildlife helps families complete their own U.S. National Park quest. The forged site organizes parks by region, with a gallery, videos, The Quest, and a path to start — stories and maps for the trip, and a certificate when you finish.
Editorial / consumer content — parks, a quest, a film.

Home services, coastal insurance, Jacksonville, Charlotte transportation. Same platform. Same human review.
Beach Insurance
Insurance — Coastal Carolinas
Beach Insurance is an independent agency headquartered in Myrtle Beach, SC, serving families and businesses across the Carolinas with auto, home, flood, life, Medicare, and commercial coverage. Their forged site replaced a legacy WordPress build with a guided two-step quote wizard, an interactive multi-city locations map, and full insurance-specific structured data — audited to WCAG 2.2 AA before launch. Cornerstone Insurance, the inland sister brand, runs on the same Forged system.
Clark's Tree Care
Tree Care & Arborist Services
Clark's Tree Care is a locally owned, licensed and insured tree service based in Waxhaw, NC, offering removal, trimming, stump grinding, storm response, and crane-assisted work across the greater Charlotte region. Their site is their primary lead engine: dedicated pages for every service and every service-area town, an instant quote form, and a gallery of real crews at work — all engineered to load fast enough to hit a perfect 100 desktop performance score with full content on the page.
The Closet Rehab
Custom Closets & Home Storage
The Closet Rehab designs, manufactures, and installs custom closets, pantries, garages, and home offices across the Charlotte area — with their own manufacturing facility in Rock Hill, SC and in-house install crews. We replaced their WordPress site with a forged build featuring an AI-generated hero montage, geo-targeted location pages, fully lead-tracked consultation forms, and a WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility program with its own public compliance report page.
Extreme Green Lawn & Landscape
Lawn Care & Landscaping
Extreme Green Lawn & Landscape is a full-service grounds maintenance company with more than ten years serving residential and commercial properties across Union County and the greater Charlotte area. We rescued the business off a locked-down Wix site and rebuilt it on the forged platform — eight service lines, ten service-area towns, and the first installable Progressive Web App we've shipped for a client.
Total Garage Charlotte
Custom Garage Interiors
Total Garage Charlotte builds custom garage interiors across the metro: cabinets, epoxy floor coatings, slatwall, overhead storage, and car lifts. The forged site treats every service line as its own page, with local landing pages for Charlotte, Concord, Huntersville and neighboring towns, plus a free in-home estimate path.
Cheetah Screens
Motorized Screens & Awnings
Cheetah Screens installs motorized insect screens, retractable awnings, and outdoor shade systems across Jacksonville, St. Johns, and Ponte Vedra. The forged site leads with a free-estimate form on the homepage, plus project work, financing, and a lifetime workmanship warranty — without a public WordPress admin.
Ballantyne Limousine
Chauffeured Transportation
Ballantyne Limousine has been moving Charlotte in style since 2005: Rolls-Royce Phantom, stretch limousines, executive SUVs, and party buses for weddings, airport runs, corporate work, and nights that have to be perfect. The forged rebuild puts the actual fleet on the site, with book and quote paths that do not require a CMS login.
Citywide Moving Systems
Moving & Storage
Citywide Moving Systems has been a Charlotte family mover since 1994, with local, long-distance, commercial, apartment, and piano moving plus storage. The forged site puts the quote path on the homepage, covers the service-area towns, and keeps consent-gated analytics in front of any tracking.
Hinsley Cleaning Group
Commercial Janitorial
Hinsley Cleaning Group is a family-owned commercial cleaner based in Winston-Salem: janitorial, office, medical and dental, post-construction, carpet, and green cleaning. The forged site is built around a free walkthrough — not a generic contact form — with dedicated pages for each service line.
Everett Custom Homes
Luxury Custom Homes
Everett Custom Homes® is a Charlotte building company doing luxury custom homes, whole-home renovations, and additions across Myers Park, SouthPark, Weddington, Waxhaw, and Lake Wylie. The forged site is their public face for that work: a consultation path, a gallery of completed projects, and clear pages for building on a client's lot and how pricing actually works.

Why These Sites Perform
Every site in this portfolio runs on our Forged platform — engineered for speed, accessibility, and hands-off maintenance.
Performance First
No page-builder bloat, no plugin stacks. Forged sites ship lean, hand-tuned code. Speed is an architecture choice. Third-party scripts and heavy applications still cost points, and we publish those scores honestly.
Accessibility Maintained
Clients who opt in get ongoing ADA / WCAG maintenance — we keep the site compliant as content changes, not just on launch day.
Custom Every Time
Live game demos, quote funnels, payment portals, galleries — each build gets the custom work its business actually needs.
Your Project Could Be Next
Every website in our portfolio started with a conversation. Tell us about your business, your goals, and your vision -- we'll handle the rest.
