The Client

Calibre Cleaning is one of Australia’s leading professional cleaning services, offering high-quality residential cleans across major cities. They serve a wide range of customers, from busy professionals to families, NDIS clients, veterans, and tenants needing bond-back assurance.

But even with strong service quality, great ratings, and national reach, their digital presence wasn’t helping them increase cleaning service conversions or convert traffic into bookings.

Calibre Cleaning faced a homepage and booking experience that didn’t match the professionalism of their actual service. They were missing the clarity, trust cues, and frictionless booking journey modern users expect.


Before working with UXphoria, they struggled with:

A homepage that didn’t clearly explain what they offer

Low trust signals despite thousands of positive reviews

Confusing CTAs and too many competing actions

A long, overwhelming progressive booking form with unclear steps

No sticky CTA or price summary on mobile, hurting the mobile booking experience

Missing reassurance during checkout, leading to drop-offs

Slow user understanding of guarantees, safety, and service inclusions

Their Goal:

“Help us create a homepage and booking experience that builds trust instantly, reduces confusion, and gets more users to request a quote or book a clean.”

The Challenge

The audit highlighted one core truth:

Users weren’t booking because the experience made them hesitate, a clear case of customer hesitation reduction needing to be addressed.

1. Users Didn’t Understand Calibre Quickly Enough

Within 5 seconds, visitors should understand:

  • What Calibre does

  • Why they’re trustworthy

  • What action to take next

Instead, they saw stock photos, scattered CTAs, and messaging that weakened value proposition clarity, causing users to pause instead of moving forward

2. Too Many CTAs Created Decision Paralysis

The hero section alone had:

  • Pricing link

  • Phone number

  • WhatsApp

  • Booking form

  • Multiple buttons

Instead of a clear, trust-first design guiding users, it created uncertainty.

3. The Booking Flow Felt Long and Overwhelming

The form asked for too much upfront, leading to:

  • 52% drop from quote → booking

  • Users quitting mid-form

  • Confusion about service inclusions and extra

4. No Trust Framework at Critical Points

Even with thousands of reviews, users didn’t see them early enough.

Guarantees like:

  • Police-checked cleaners

  • Bond-back guarantee

  • Fully insured service

…weren’t positioned where trust badges and social proof mattered most.

5. Checkout Lacked Confirmation & Reassurance

High hesitation came from the unclear:

  • Return/reschedule policies

  • Pricing certainty

  • What happens after submission

  • Whether the booking was secure

Without trust → conversion stalls.

The Solution

UXphoria rebuilt Calibre Cleaning’s digital experience into a trustworthy, high-clarity, conversion-focused funnel, from homepage to final confirmation. The goal was to create a frictionless booking journey that boosted clarity and reduced hesitation at every step.

Our mission was simple:

Remove friction - Build trust - Increase bookings.

Calibre Cleaning gained:

  • A homepage that explains their value instantly

  • A trust-first framework built around badges, reviews, guarantees

  • A simplified, mobile-first booking flow

  • Clear add-on hierarchy that increases average booking value and supports a smoother progressive booking form

  • Stronger reassurance during checkout to help reduce booking abandonment

  • A modern, minimal UI aligned with their brand and built for customer hesitation reduction

  • A proven conversion structure aligned with how Australians actually shop for services, supporting long-term improved booking experience

Every step was shaped around real user behaviour, not assumptions.

The Process

Phase 1: User Research & Behaviour Insights

Understanding why users hesitate is the key to improving conversions ​​and creating a more frictionless booking journey.

This phase revealed exactly where customers slowed down, what confused them, and what they needed to feel confident booking a clean, all critical for customer hesitation reduction.

What UXphoria Did

  • Analysed scroll patterns and tap behaviour across mobile

  • Identified friction in the first 5 seconds of homepage exposure

  • Mapped trust triggers (reviews, badges, guarantees) that function as essential trust badges and social proof

  • Segmented customer types: recurring vs. end-of-lease vs. one-time

  • Identified the 4 primary moments where users abandoned the booking flow, highlighting opportunities to reduce booking abandonment

  • Created a value-led hero section with ONE main CTA for better booking experience

What UXphoria Did

  • Broke long forms into clear, progressive booking form steps

  • Introduced real-time price summary

  • Added sticky CTA on mobile for thumb-friendly navigation

  • Grouped extras logically with “Most Popular” indicators

  • Added tooltips for tasks like oven cleaning, carpet steam, and windows

  • Displayed review snippets directly beside final CTA

  • Clarified what happens after booking, reducing uncertainty and boosting value proposition clarity

  • Improved discount code placement to prevent distraction

  • Added simple copy: “Free 24-hour reschedule” and “Secure payment processing”

READY FOR A LUXURY, HIGH-VALUE ITEMS WEBSITE THAT BUILDS CONFIDENCE AND INCREASES CONVERSIONS BY 36%?

Luxury resale doesn’t fail because of weak products, it fails when the experience doesn’t build enough trust.

You DON’T need another redesign that ONLY LOOKS GOOD.

You need a conversion-focused partner who knows how to reduce hesitation, elevate your brand, and strengthen buyer certainty at every step, the same approach that helped Fobe INCREASE CONVERSIONS BY 36% and LIFT ADD-TO-CART ACTIVITY BY 42% after their redesign.

At UXphoria, we design clear, trustworthy ecommerce experiences built for high-intent shoppers who need confidence before investing in high-value pieces.

If you’re ready to remove friction, build trust, and create a site that finally converts…
