Potential Customer Impact

Customers attempting to call your business from mobile devices may reach a different number than the one displayed on the page. This can create confusion, mistrust, abandoned calls, and wasted advertising spend from visitors who were ready to contact your business.

Button with 604 number tapped shows a 778 number in the tel link

The visible phone number does not match the number that opens when tapped on mobile devices.

Why This Matters

Customers searching for emergency services often contact the first business they trust. If the phone number behaves unexpectedly or opens the wrong destination, visitors may leave the site entirely or contact a competitor instead.

Recommended Fix

Update the mobile call button so the visible phone number and linked phone number match exactly.

                        <a href="tel:+16045551234">(604) 555-1234</a>

How To Verify The Fix

Additional Active Issues

✖ HIGH-PRIORITY — REAL-WORLD USABILITY

Contact form confirmation message missing

Customers may think the form submission failed and leave the site without waiting for a response.

Recommended fix: Display a visible confirmation message after successful form submission.

                                    <div class="success-message">Thank you. Your message has been sent.</div>

△ WARNING — SPEED AT THE MOMENT OF CONTACT

Mobile contact page delayed during loading

Everything stops to load this script first, making the page feel slow and unresponsive to customers.

Recommended fix: Adding a defer attribute to the script tag so we keep loading the rest of the page safely in the background without waiting for the script.

                                    <script src="reviews-widget.js" defer></script>
