The challenge
Where they started
RCMG (Contracting & Management Group) has spent 17 years delivering structural, MEP and fit-out work across Lebanon and Sweden, with its own team handling every trade from concrete to automation. The company needed a site as solid as its work: one that showcases residential, retail, institutional and industrial projects, explains each trade clearly, builds trust through clients, testimonials and the team, works in both English and Arabic, and stays easy for the team to update.
Goals
- Showcase projects across every sector
- Speak to clients in English and Arabic
- Easy updates without a slow, heavy site
Our solution
What we built
We built a custom front end in plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript that pulls all of its content from WordPress through a dedicated REST API, so the team edits services, projects, testimonials and team members in WordPress while visitors get a fast, lightweight site. Every page exists in English and Arabic, with Arabic served under /ar in a full right-to-left layout and its own Arabic typefaces. Projects can be filtered by sector, every service has its own page, and the contact form sends project briefs straight to the team.
