An heuristic inspection for a home inspection company

Inspecticore Home Inspections promise elite customer service and quality inspections for their customers. Currently, their model leads a customer to a service rep to book each inspection live rather than to their online booking system.

The Process:

01

Conduct Heuristic Review

By conducting a a Heuristic Evaluate the usability, accessibility, and user experience of the website based on Neilson Normans 10 Usability Principals.

02

Fix Usability Issues

First I wanted to make small but meaningful changes to the site in order to improve usability at a small cost of resources.

03

Create a New Website

After competitive research and talking to users I wanted to create a new mid & hi fidelity version of new responsive site.

Part 1: Heuristic Review

The company was unsure about why their customers weren't using their online booking system. To address these issues, I decided to conduct a heuristic review of their website and online booking system to identify usability and design issues that may be hindering customers from booking inspections online.

The heuristic review provided valuable insights into how the company can improve the user experience of its website and online booking system to make it more intuitive, efficient, and user-friendly.

Design Prioritzation
After prioritizing the main issues found within the homepage & booking flow, and taking into account the client’s desires, we created a plan to execute. I would start with creating a mock of the quick win’s to implement. Following that 
I would put together two iterations of an updated homepage.

Part 2: Quick Wins

The next step was for me to create a mock up the ‘Fix ASAP/Quick Wins’ that a developer could quickly implement into the site.
While there weren’t huge changes visually the usability was 
greatly improved. *Due to resources, these changes have not been implemented yet.

Part 3: Mid Fi Homepage

Although the mock was created for the quick fixes, the team wanted to move forward with giving the homepage a revamp. I iterated on a few ideas but ultimately landed on the a version that was updated, modern, and easy to navigate.

Part 4: Hi Fi Homepage

I took into account Inspecticores current branding and implemented those styles into a landing page.
