About us

Two people, nine years, and a stubborn belief that a small business website should load fast, say the right thing, and never need rescuing six months after launch.

Who we are

A small studio, on purpose

Buitsol is a website development company working with restaurants, clinics, traders and small hospitality businesses across Europe. We are small deliberately: the person who designs your site is the person who builds it and the person who answers when you write.

We started in 2017 rebuilding sites that other people had abandoned. That experience shaped how we work now. Almost every rescue job had the same three causes — a page builder that no one could maintain, thirty plugins nobody had chosen consciously, and images uploaded straight from a camera. So we build without any of those.

What we produce is deliberately plain underneath: hand-written HTML, CSS and JavaScript, with libraries added only where they earn their weight. It is why our pages open in two seconds on an average phone, and why they still work three years later when nobody has touched them.

What we believe

Four rules we do not bend

01

The phone is the real website

Two out of three visitors arrive on a phone, often on a poor connection, often outdoors. Every decision is tested there first. If it does not work with one thumb in bright sunlight, it does not ship.

02

Speed is a feature you can feel

We set a weight budget before writing a line of code. Nothing gets added without something being justified. A page that opens instantly does more for bookings than any animation.

03

You own everything

Domain in your name, hosting in your account if you want it, code you can hand to anyone. We keep clients because they choose to stay, not because leaving is expensive.

04

The price is the price

Scope, cost and deadline are fixed in writing before the project starts. If we underestimated, that is our problem, not an invoice. If you add something, we quote it separately and you decide.

In their words

Clients who let us quote them

The website was live in twelve days and the first table booked through it the same evening. What surprised me most was that they asked about our kitchen before they asked about colours.

Our old site took nine seconds to open on a phone. The new one opens before the patient finishes reading our name. Bookings from mobile went from a trickle to the majority.

We sell steel, not websites, so we needed someone to translate a messy price list into something a buyer can read in three languages. They did exactly that, and they still keep it updated.

Clear pricing, no surprise invoices, and a person who answers on WhatsApp the same day. After two agencies that went silent, that alone was worth it.

What we need from you

The projects that finish on time are the ones where content arrives on time. There is no way around it — we can design a page for a dish, but we cannot photograph the dish.

  • A decision-maker who can approve in one round, not a committee
  • Texts, or at least bullet points we can turn into texts
  • Photographs of the real place, the real team, the real product
  • Your price list or service list in any format, even a paper scan
  • Access to the domain, or the willingness to register one

We send a checklist on day one and we chase it politely. Nobody enjoys that part, so we made it as short as it can honestly be.

A twenty-minute call is usually enough to know. If we are not the right studio for your project, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
