Tahoe Tree Care

A trusted Tahoe tree-care company was boxed in by a Wix site they couldn’t easily change. We moved them to WordPress and Bricks — a faster, more flexible platform their own team can edit — with our partners at Replicant Digital handling the SEO research. Kickoff to launch in under a month.

The setup

Tahoe Tree Care is a home-services business with deep roots: ISA Certified Arborists serving the mountain communities of North Lake Tahoe and Truckee. They handle tree removal, trimming, defensible space, and risk assessment for homeowners who care about both their property and the forest around it. Their motto says it plainly — preserving Tahoe’s forests, protecting your home.

Their website, though, lived on Wix. It worked — but it boxed them in. Everyday edits were harder than they should be, the design was limited to Wix’s way of doing things, and the platform wasn’t built to grow with them. They wanted something more flexible: a site their own team could update without fighting the tools.

More than a new site, they wanted partners they could trust — a team to handle the design and build, and to be there afterward. DigiSavvy took on the design and implementation; we brought in our partners at Replicant Digital for the SEO research, so the new content was built to be found from day one.

The challenge

Get a home-services business off a rigid Wix site and onto a platform they can run themselves — fast, and with partners they trust.

  • Break out of Wix. A closed platform that limited the design and made everyday edits harder than they needed to be.
  • Make it editable. The team needed to update services, photos, and content themselves, without a developer on call.
  • Get found locally. A home-services business lives on local search — the content had to be built around how people actually look for tree care.
  • Move fast. They needed it done quickly, without the project dragging on for months.

The solution

A WordPress and Bricks rebuild — design and implementation by DigiSavvy, SEO research by Replicant Digital — shipped in under a month.

  • Wix to WordPress + Bricks. A flexible, modern platform that loads fast and is easy for the team to edit — with none of Wix’s lock-in.
  • A design refresh. We redesigned and implemented the new site to show off the work: real arborist photography, clear services, and obvious calls to action.
  • SEO-driven content. Our partners at Replicant Digital led the keyword research, so the site’s structure and content target how Tahoe homeowners actually search for tree care.
  • Done in under a month. From kickoff to launch in under four weeks — quick, without cutting the corners that matter.
The results

Off Wix. On their own terms.

Under a month

from first kickoff to a fully launched, redesigned site.

Self-serve

the team edits services, photos, and content without a developer.

partners they can count on for what’s next, not just the launch.

A site the team controls

Editing a service page, swapping in seasonal photos, updating the estimate form — it all happens in-house now on Bricks, with no Wix ceiling and no waiting on a developer. The site keeps up with the business instead of holding it back.

Partners, not just a vendor

What they wanted most was a team they could trust. DigiSavvy handled the design and implementation; Replicant Digital brought the SEO research — and both are still here for what’s next, not just the launch.
