Site for a local company

Ok, so it’s been quite a while since I’ve posted anything.

Anyways, here is a site that I was given to design today and goodie for me I wasn’t in the initial meeting with the client so I haven’t even spoken with the person who gave the art director all the info so I haven’t been able to feel out completely what they are looking for - but hopefully I’m on the right track.

Blah blah blah, so here is an unfinished homepage for this site. I’m sure you can tell what will have some flash aspect to it and what won’t. Things I’ve still got to add are as follows:

-“10 Hour Guarantee” (they want this on the homepage and every page after that…)
-“Serving Contractors Nationwide” (ditto from above)

  • I haven’t sold myself to the gradient in the background.
  • They want a Spanish flag somewhere that has “Staff Trades in Espanol” somewhere on the homepage (no idea where to put this - hence the empty space in a few areas)

Oh and here is their old site … http://www.rtstafftrades.com/

Here is the design:

Thanks for any advice, comments, suggestions etc.

EDIT: Ok so took some comments from around the office … and here’s what I’ve come up with …
