Home & Garden eCommerce Agency

Home & Garden eCommerce

Built for big baskets, complex products, and customers who take their time.

Selling furniture, homeware, or garden gear means dealing with high-AOV orders, heavy product detail pages, and long decision-making cycles. You don’t just need an eCommerce site that looks good – you need one that loads fast, scales easily, and makes buying as smooth as possible.

We build eCommerce stores that simplify the path to purchase, support detailed product exploration, and help you scale operations without tech getting in the way. We help you move from pain points to your next nice problems – like what to do with the high volume of new orders.

Let’s talk

Development That Fits Your Catalogue

You’ve got large inventories, rich media, and a seasonal business model. We match you with the platform that’ll support those needs now and five years from now.

Magento Open Source gives your team full control over product data, custom shipping rules, and onsite merchandising. It’s perfect if you need a cost-effective platform with flexibility built in, and you’ve got internal dev resources to support it.

Adobe Commerce takes things further with advanced B2B tools, customer segmentation, rule-based promotions, and international pricing. If you’re juggling multiple storefronts or have layered requirements, Adobe’s depth makes things easier.

Shopify and Shopify Plus work well for home and garden brands that want to move fast without incurring heavy development overhead. This makes it faster to launch a sub-brand, react to trends, or spin up campaigns. It’s quick to manage and even quicker to scale.

Aero Commerce is built for performance and cost efficiency. If you want a lightweight, scalable platform that won’t drain your infrastructure budget, Aero is a strong contender, especially when page speed is critical.

Hyvä Themes supercharge Magento stores with clean, fast, flexible frontends. If your current site is dragging and slowing sales, a Hyvä rebuild gives you modern UX, faster load times, and better conversion rates.

UX & UI That Helps Customers Choose

Guide high-consideration purchases without overwhelming.

Home and garden products aren’t impulse buys. Your customers want to compare, visualise, and feel confident before they checkout. We design journeys that make that easy, helping customers find what they need quickly, understand product options clearly, and move through checkout without distractions.

Our UX and UI work helps your team make better use of bundling and upselling, while your customers get a more useful, more pleasant shopping experience. Browsing is easier, product pages feel considered, and information is always where it’s needed.

Ongoing Support That Keeps Your Products Moving

Seasonal updates, site tweaks, and CRO support – all covered.

Your product catalogue changes often, and so do customer expectations. That’s why we stay involved long after launch, whether your next step is preparing a spring sale or adding a whole new category.

We’ll keep your site secure, make sure it loads fast, and work closely with your team to implement any new features or improvements. Think of us as your ongoing eCommerce partner – one that knows the platform, understands your business, and doesn’t need handholding.

I like working with Actuate because they care about what they do, they clarify the detail to get the job done right.  They have worked incredibly hard with our complex needs and have been on hand for help and advice every step along the way…

Without Actuate’s help and support, our original website wouldn’t have succeeded. Time was of the essence, and Actuate stepped in to deliver a swift turnaround. The new site has performed exceptionally well ever since. We continue to grow thanks to Actuate. ❤️ Thanks guys!”
