Web design in Balerno
Fast, hand-coded websites for businesses in Balerno, Currie and Juniper Green, from a studio that is actually here. Designed to look right, load quickly and turn visitors into enquiries. Never templates.
Most studios that turn up when you search for web design in Balerno are somewhere else entirely. We are not. Jigsaw Studio is based here, on the west side of Edinburgh, and we design and build websites from scratch in proper code. That means your site loads faster, ranks better and bends around how your business actually works, instead of being forced into a template that someone else is using too.
Actually based in Balerno
Not an Edinburgh agency that lists Balerno on a coverage map. This is where the studio is, where we live, and where a fair number of our clients are. If you want to sit down and talk about your website in person, that is a short walk or a five minute drive, not a trip into town.
Built from scratch, never templates
Every site is custom-designed and hand-coded. No page builders, no bloated themes, no monthly plugin roulette. Just a fast, secure website that is yours to keep.
Built for how village businesses actually win work
Out here a lot of business still arrives by word of mouth and a phone call. Your website's job is to catch the person who has just been given your name and wants to check you are real before they ring. We design for that moment.
Found, not just built
Web design and SEO under one roof. Your site ships with clean structure, fast load times and the local SEO groundwork that helps you show up when someone nearby searches for what you do.

Web design in Balerno: common questions
Are you really based in Balerno?
Yes. The studio is in Balerno, on the west side of Edinburgh. It is the reason we can meet clients here properly rather than squeezing you into a call, and it is why we know the difference between trading in a village and trading in the city centre.
Do you only work with businesses in Balerno?
No. We work right across Edinburgh, West Lothian and the rest of Scotland. Balerno, Currie and Juniper Green are simply the closest to home, so local work tends to get an in-person start.
How much does a website cost?
It depends on the number of pages and what the site needs to do. We give you a clear, fixed quote before any work starts, so there are no surprises halfway through.
How long does it take to build a website?
A typical small-business site takes a few weeks from kickoff to launch, depending on content and scope. We agree a timeline up front and keep you posted throughout.
Do you use WordPress or templates?
No. We build in code from scratch, so your site is faster, more secure and easier to change, with no template licences or plugin subscriptions to keep paying for.
