Restoration 1, a leader in water damage restoration, faced a pressing challenge: their digital presence wasn’t keeping pace with their rapid growth. Their website felt outdated, the user experience was fractured, and the brand’s key messages weren’t shining through. It was time for a change, and they needed a solution that could scale as their franchise network expanded. Enter the Arc4 team.
The old website wasn’t just a design issue, it was slowing down conversions, frustrating users, and making it hard for the brand to highlight what made them stand out. Ashleigh Beckwith, the Digital Marketing Manager for Restoration 1 Headquarters, said “The user journey and experience were broken, and a new design was needed to fix it.” Restoration 1 needed a website that worked for both their corporate team and their franchisees, providing local flexibility without sacrificing brand consistency. The Yext platform offered exactly that.
The organization required a scalable platform that could improve user experience, strengthen brand consistency, and empower franchisees to manage localized content without compromising overall control.

overview
Arc4 approached the project by designing a scalable, local-first architecture that could support both the national brand and individual franchise locations. The strategy centered on creating a flexible framework where each location could operate as its own high-performing digital asset, while still maintaining consistency in branding, structure, and performance across the network.
A key focus was building a system that could dynamically generate and manage location-level content at scale, including service areas, localized messaging, and SEO-optimized structures. This allowed each franchise to better compete in local search results while reducing the manual effort required to manage hundreds of pages.
SEO and conversion were built into every layer of the experience, from site architecture to page templates and content strategy. The end result was a platform that not only improved visibility for high-intent “near me” searches, but also created a clear path for users to take action, turning local traffic into qualified leads for each franchise location.
Key Highlights Include:
Built location pages designed to rank for high-intent “near me” and service-based searches across every market.
Enabled each location to showcase unique service areas, content, and local relevance while maintaining brand consistency.
Implemented a scalable system to create and manage hundreds of location pages efficiently from a centralized framework.

“Arc4 has been a fantastic partner to us at Restoration 1. They helped us overcome an updated navigation mid-project, create an API for our store locator, and quickly implement key updates as we approached launch.”
