WavreWalloon Brabant
Studio Façade rebuilds websites for independent businesses in Walloon Brabant: butchers, joiners, shopkeepers, craftspeople. Fast pages that read well on a phone and make sense to Google — and someone to look after them afterwards.
§ 01 Services
Take a single service or combine them. Pricing is by quote, once we have looked properly at your current site.
Your site is ten years old, hard to read on a phone, or no longer says what you do. We rebuild it without losing what already works.
Being found when someone searches for “joiner Wavre” or “butcher Limal”. No promises of the top spot — just careful work on everything Google reads.
Often the first thing customers see, before your website. We fill it in, check it and keep it up to date.
A website isn’t something you put up and forget. We look after it so you don’t have to think about it.
§ 02 Why
Before starting the studio, we went through the websites of independent businesses in the area. This is what keeps coming up. Nothing dramatic — and that is exactly the problem.
Pages still built with layout tables, without a single H1 heading.
Neither Google nor screen readers can tell what the page is about. On a phone, the layout breaks or forces you to zoom.
A WordPress site that hasn’t been updated since 2018.
Every outdated plugin is an open door. The day the site gets hacked, there is often no recent backup.
No structured data at all.
Nothing tells Google that this is a business, where it is, or when it’s open. It has to guess — or get the information somewhere else.
Leftover template text, live on the page: Il s’agit du contenu de la balise Div de disposition "txt-300"
.
It opens the home page of a business that has been in Wavre for more than fifty years.
Two different sets of opening hours on the same page.
6.30 pm in the text, 6 pm in the footer, and Wednesday afternoon simply disappears. A customer who makes the trip for nothing doesn’t come back.
A “Créer un site web gratuit” (make a free website) badge in the footer.
A workshop’s craftsmanship deserves better than an advert for the tool that built its site.
§ 03 Process
At every stage you know where things stand, what we need from you and what comes next.
We look at your current site, your Google profile and how you show up in local searches. You get a written report in plain language.
An hour at your shop or workshop. What customers ask you, what you want to highlight, what keeps you on the phone for too long.
A real page you can open on your phone, with your own copy. You comment, we adjust. Nothing gets built until the mock-up is signed off.
Build, redirects from old pages, structured data, an updated Google profile. Your domain name stays yours.
Updates, backups, monitoring. New opening hours or a new photo? Just send an email.
§ 04 Case studies
Unsolicited proposals, not commissioned. These three businesses are not our clients and have not asked us for anything. We picked three public websites from the area to show our work in concrete terms. The mock-ups use only the text from their current sites; missing information is clearly marked as such. The mock-ups themselves are in French.
contenu de la balise Div de disposition.An online shop: coffee by origin, tea by colour, fine groceries and Japanese tableware, with a basket. The feel of the shop counter without photos: typography, kraft paper and brass.

A straightforward, readable site for a neighbourhood shop, with a four-step catering order: occasion, selection, collection, contact details. Opening hours in one place only.

sur mesure dan notre atelier.A catalogue of projects sorted by type of work, the Google rating shown exactly as it is, and a quote request that asks the right questions from the start.
