The best website redesign agencies are vetted on migration risk rather than portfolio quality: how they handle redirect maps, content parity on ranking pages, form-to-CRM continuity, and phased rollout. Minimum project sizes among the agencies here run $10,000 to $50,000 on Clutch, and the strongest signal of a specialist is a direct answer about redirects.

**Key takeaways**

- A third of marketers are unhappy with their last website redesign, per HubSpot's survey of 6,000+ customers. The failure is rarely design quality; it is a site that shipped and lost what the old one earned.
- A redesign agency inherits a working system: pages that rank, forms wired into a CRM, live campaign URLs. Vet for migration discipline, not portfolio polish.
- One question filters faster than any case-study review: what is your redirect-map process? Teams that have run real migrations answer in specifics; teams that have not redirect the conversation to design.
- Only three agencies on this list market a dedicated website-redesign service. Several strong ones do the work without naming it, which means searching for 'redesign agency' hides good options and surfaces marketing pages.
- Search demand for redesign agencies peaks in September, when next year's budgets get planned. Scoping in summer means you pick your shortlist; scoping in Q4 means you pick from whoever has capacity left.

A third of marketers are unhappy with their last website redesign. That number comes from HubSpot's survey of more than 6,000 of its customers, and it is the reason this list exists in the form it does: redesigns rarely disappoint on visual quality. They disappoint because a site shipped and stopped earning what the old one earned.

A redesign agency inherits something a web design agency never touches. The site already works. It has pages that rank, forms wired into a CRM, campaigns pointing at live URLs, and a pipeline depending on all three surviving launch day. Shortlists get built by scanning portfolios, which shows you how an agency draws and tells you nothing about whether it can move a site without breaking what the site already earns.

This list ranks on that. We're Masterly, a design agency working with Series A–D B2B SaaS, fintech, healthtech, and AI companies, and we've included ourselves with the same criteria applied to everyone else. No padding the list with agencies we can't speak to, no omissions that make the landscape look cleaner than it is.

What this guide covers:

1. What separates a redesign agency from a web design agency
2. The four criteria we used, including the one question that filters fastest
3. Ten website redesign agencies in 2026, who each is best for, and what to expect on price
4. How to choose based on your situation, from a stalled Series A site to an enterprise replatform

## What separates a redesign agency from a web design agency

The distinction sounds like marketing until you watch a redesign go wrong. A new build has one failure mode: the site underperforms. A redesign has three more, and each one is invisible on launch day.

Changed URLs without a redirect map erode the rankings that justified the project, slowly enough over the following quarter that nobody connects the decline to the launch. Forms rebuilt without mapping the plumbing behind them deliver leads that arrive unattributed or route to nobody. Live campaign pages that a paid program still points at either survive, redirect cleanly, or bill you for clicks landing on a 404. We covered all three in detail in the [B2B redesign strategy guide](https://www.themasterly.com/blog/b2b-website-redesign); the short version is that continuity belongs in the scope document, not in launch-day QA.

Here is the awkward finding from researching this list: only three of these ten agencies market a dedicated website-redesign service page. Several of the strongest do the work without naming it, and one well-known SaaS design studio refuses website work outright while ranking for redesign queries because their product-redesign service shares the word. Searching for "redesign agency" therefore hides good options and surfaces marketing pages. Which is why the criteria below matter more than the label an agency puts on itself.

## How we evaluated this list

**Migration discipline, tested with one question.** Ask a shortlisted agency what their redirect-map process is. Teams that have run real migrations answer in specifics: URL inventory before design starts, one-to-one redirects, content parity on ranking pages, Search Console monitoring for the first month. Teams that have not will move the conversation to design quality. That exchange sorts a shortlist faster than a week of portfolio review, and it is the closest thing to a reliable filter in agency selection.

**Evidence of redesigns, not just builds.** We looked for named redesign work: case studies that describe an existing site being moved rather than a new one being launched. An agency whose portfolio is entirely greenfield builds may still do good work, but you are paying them to learn the failure modes on your migration.

**Verified Clutch reviews.** [Clutch](https://clutch.co/web-designers) is the most reliable source of verified B2B agency reviews. All ratings, review counts, minimum project sizes, and hourly rates below were pulled from live Clutch profiles in August 2026. Ratings drift, so check them again before you sign anything.

**Pricing transparency.** Agencies opaque about cost on first contact are optimizing for closing rather than for fit. One agency on this list publishes its own redesign range on its website; that is rare and worth rewarding with a place on your shortlist.

## Ten website redesign agencies in 2026

### 1. Masterly

**Best for: Series A to Series D B2B SaaS, fintech, healthtech, and AI companies redesigning after a repositioning**

Full disclosure: this is our list, and we're on it. We've applied the same criteria to ourselves that we applied to everyone else.

We're a design-led studio working with B2B SaaS, fintech, healthtech, and AI companies. Most redesigns we take on start with the same trigger: the company repositioned, moved upmarket, or closed a round, and the site still sells to the buyer they outgrew. That makes positioning the first deliverable and visual design the second. Across 40+ B2B SaaS products, client companies have raised $200M+ after our design engagements, and our UX work lifts trial-to-paid and lead-to-call conversion by an average of 38%. The work has earned Red Dot Design Award recognition.

Two things shape how we run redesigns. We design in Figma with senior designers and hand the build to coding agents for clients optimizing on price and speed, or to Webflow for clients who want a platform their marketing team already knows. And we ship page by page rather than in one launch: a recent scale-up engagement ran as seventeen page-level projects over three and a half months, each page live and measured while the next was in design. We're not the right fit for enterprise procurement cycles or projects where the site is a checkmark rather than a sales asset.

**Clutch:** 5.0/5 | **Pricing:** $4K–$16K/mo retainer, or fixed-scope projects | **Based:** EU (remote)

### 2. Huemor

**Best for: Post-MVP companies whose site still looks like the early days**

Huemor has the clearest redesign positioning of any agency we looked at. They run a dedicated website-redesign practice, and their copy names the trigger directly: a site that still belongs to your MVP days while the company has moved on. That specificity is unusual in a market where most agencies treat redesign as a variant of web design.

They also publish their own pricing, which almost nobody does. Most of their website rebuilds fall between $50,000 and $100,000 on a 12 to 16 week timeline, stated openly rather than qualified into meaninglessness. Their client list includes Shopify, Cloudinary, BetterCloud, and Mark43. Founded in 2011, team of 10 to 49, and they hold a W3C Award Gold for website redesign.

Worth knowing: their Clutch profile carries 72 reviews at 4.8, the most redesign-specific review volume in this list.

**Clutch:** 4.8/5 (72 reviews) | **Pricing:** $25,000+ minimum, $150–199/hr | **Based:** Pittsburgh, PA

### 3. Orbit Media Studios

**Best for: Content-heavy B2B sites where organic traffic is the asset being protected**

Orbit Media has been building and rebuilding sites from Chicago since 2001, with roughly 57 people and no outsourcing. For a redesign where the primary risk is losing hard-won organic rankings, that combination of longevity and in-house delivery is the relevant signal.

They also publish original research on the exact question buyers of this service ask, which is how often a site should be rebuilt. Tracking 50 top marketing brands through the Internet Archive, they found an average of two years and one month between redesigns; across 78 of their own client sites, the average was six years and four months. The gap is the interesting part, and it is a more honest answer to "how often should we redesign" than most agencies will give you, since the second number represents sites that did not need rebuilding as often.

Their own estimate for a full redesign project is 10 to 30 or more weeks. At a $50,000 minimum they are not the budget option, and their strongest fit is a site where content volume and search performance are the reason the project exists.

**Clutch:** 5.0/5 (36 reviews) | **Pricing:** $50,000+ minimum, $150–199/hr | **Based:** Chicago, IL

### 4. Bop Design

**Best for: B2B companies that want an agency doing nothing else**

Bop Design carries the strongest combination of rating and review volume in this list: 5.0 across 127 verified Clutch reviews. Their positioning is equally unambiguous. Their homepage says "B2B. It's all we do," and their industry page states they have worked exclusively with B2B brands for more than a decade. For a category where most agencies claim every vertical, a consistent exclusion is a real signal.

Their redesign evidence is a case study rather than a service page. The Opus 2 engagement reports sessions up 25%, new users up 34%, and direct search sessions up 58%. That is the kind of outcome reporting worth asking every agency for, and few produce it. They also run a 30-day post-launch monitoring period, which addresses the failure mode this whole list is organized around.

The caveat is structural: with no dedicated redesign page, you will need to raise migration explicitly in the first conversation rather than assume it is scoped.

**Clutch:** 5.0/5 (127 reviews) | **Pricing:** $25,000+ minimum, $150–199/hr | **Based:** San Diego, CA

### 5. Ramotion

**Best for: Brand-led redesigns where the identity changes alongside the site**

Ramotion answers the redesign question more directly than anyone else here. Their web design page states they can redesign an existing site or improve selected parts of it, and they answer "can you redesign my existing website" as a standing question rather than a special case. A separate brand page lists end-to-end website redesign as its own line of work.

The verified work supports the brand-plus-web positioning: Firefox brand identity, and a separate Mozilla Labs website redesign. If your redesign is downstream of a rebrand, an agency that runs both without handing off between two vendors removes a coordination risk that shows up in most rebrand-plus-redesign timelines.

One distinction to hold onto when you talk to them: they run a separate product-redesign practice for applications, priced and scoped differently from website work. Make sure the conversation is about the one you need.

**Clutch:** 4.9/5 (29 reviews) | **Pricing:** $50,000+ minimum, $150–199/hr | **Based:** San Francisco, CA

### 6. Lounge Lizard

**Best for: Buyers who want a documented process more than a design point of view**

Lounge Lizard has been running since 1998, which makes them the oldest agency on this list by a decade. They market a dedicated redesign service built around a named eight-step process, from kick-off and rebranding through prototyping, design, content, development, testing, and launch, with Imagine Software as a named redesign case study.

A documented process is worth something specific in a redesign: it means the sequence is decided before your project starts rather than improvised around it. It also tends to correlate with a larger team and a more structured, slower engagement, which fits organizations with multiple stakeholders and suits fast-moving startups less well.

They serve B2B and SaaS but also run a B2C practice, so specialization is broader here than with Bop Design or the SaaS-focused studios. Their hourly rate is undisclosed on Clutch, so pricing conversations start from scratch.

**Clutch:** 4.8/5 (43 reviews) | **Pricing:** $25,000+ minimum, hourly undisclosed | **Based:** New York, NY

### 7. Clay

**Best for: Well-funded companies where the redesign has to clear a high aesthetic bar**

Clay is a San Francisco studio operating at the intersection of brand, product design, and front-end development, and their client list sets both the quality ceiling and the price floor: Slack, Google, ADP, VMware, Okta, Splunk. They built Slack's interactive demo experience and worked with Google on Project Jacquard.

Redesign is demonstrated rather than merchandised. It appears nowhere in their service list, but their portfolio labels it plainly: a web redesign for the world's largest crypto asset manager, Grayscale, and one for the payables automation platform Tipalti. B2B and enterprise software is a named industry category for them, so the work sits in their lane even though the word is not in their navigation.

Their Clutch sub-ratings tell you what to expect: quality 4.8, schedule 4.7, cost 4.5. That last number is the honest one. This is not a Series A engagement.

**Clutch:** 4.8/5 (32 reviews) | **Pricing:** $50,000+ minimum, $150–199/hr | **Based:** San Francisco, CA

### 8. DD.NYC

**Best for: Consumer-facing brands with volume requirements and a New York preference**

DD.NYC carries 104 Clutch reviews at 5.0, the second-largest verified review base here, and a client list that skews recognizable: Match Group brands including Tinder and Hinge, plus VTS and Forbes. Web design is their largest recorded service line at roughly half their work, and they ranked #58 on the Inc. 5000.

Two things to weigh. Their own web design page frames engagements as new builds rather than redesigns, and states that they never start from a theme or a previous website design, so migration continuity is something you would need to introduce into the scope rather than expect in it. And Clutch's aggregate review analysis flags that about a quarter of their reviews mention communication issues or project delays. High ratings and consistent process notes can coexist; both are worth reading before you commit.

**Clutch:** 5.0/5 (104 reviews) | **Pricing:** $10,000+ minimum, $150–199/hr | **Based:** New York, NY

### 9. Excited

**Best for: B2B SaaS teams with a real budget ceiling**

Excited is the most affordable option on this list that still holds a 5.0 Clutch rating, at 55 reviews and a $50–99 hourly band. Their positioning is B2B and SaaS website design, including a line most agencies avoid putting in writing: that a redesign may be more affordable than a full build. Clients include XILO, ClubReady, InsuredMine, and Timeero.

The caveat is where their revenue comes from. Their Clutch service breakdown is 90% UX/UI and 10% web design, so websites are a minority of recorded work despite the redesign-forward marketing. That does not make the work weak, but it does mean you should ask for redesign case studies specifically rather than portfolio work in general.

**Clutch:** 5.0/5 (55 reviews) | **Pricing:** $10,000+ minimum, $50–99/hr | **Based:** Lviv, Ukraine

### 10. Fireart Studio

**Best for: Redesigns where the build is the hard part**

Fireart works from Warsaw with 50 to 249 people and a client list that includes Rolls-Royce, Google, Crunchbase, Pipedrive, and Bolt. At a $10,000 minimum and a $50–99 hourly band, they sit at the accessible end of this list while carrying a 4.9 rating across 40 reviews.

Their profile is different from every other agency here in one way worth understanding: roughly 65% of their recorded Clutch work is engineering rather than design. If your redesign is technically demanding, a replatform with integrations or a custom CMS, that ratio is an advantage. If the hard part of your project is positioning and messaging, a design-led studio will serve you better. Redesign appears on their site as an FAQ answer rather than a service, which reinforces the same read.

**Clutch:** 4.9/5 (40 reviews) | **Pricing:** $10,000+ minimum, $50–99/hr | **Based:** Warsaw, Poland

## How to choose based on your situation

**Your site stopped matching how you sell.** You repositioned, moved upmarket, or closed a round, and the messaging contradicts the sales motion. Positioning is the deliverable and design is downstream of it. Look for agencies that lead the conversation with your buyer rather than your layout: Masterly, Huemor, or Ramotion if a rebrand is in scope.

**You have organic traffic to protect.** Content-heavy site, real rankings, a pipeline fed by search. Migration discipline outranks everything else, and the redirect-map question should be the first one you ask. Orbit Media and Bop Design both structure around this, and Bop's 30-day post-launch monitoring is the kind of commitment worth asking others to match.

**You need a replatform, not a reskin.** Marketing cannot ship a page without an engineer, and the real deliverable is a [design system](https://www.themasterly.com/glossary/design-system) plus the platform carrying it. Engineering depth matters more than art direction: Fireart at the accessible end, Clay at the premium one.

**Your budget has a hard ceiling.** Excited, DD.NYC, and Fireart all start at a $10,000 minimum on Clutch. Below that number you are buying a template refresh rather than a redesign, and the honest move is to run a [UX audit](https://www.themasterly.com/blog/ux-audit-guide) first: it costs a fraction of a rebuild and often finds that two pages, not the whole site, are the leak.

**You are running a formal selection.** Write the brief before you contact anyone. Our [RFP guide](https://www.themasterly.com/blog/website-redesign-rfp) covers the eight sections that get strong agencies to respond, and the single biggest lever is naming a budget range so the right tier self-selects in.

One timing note from our keyword data: search demand for redesign agencies peaks in September, when next year's budgets get planned. Everyone scopes at once and calendars fill. Scoping in summer means you pick your shortlist; scoping in Q4 means you pick from whoever has capacity left.

## How to find more agencies

This list covers ten agencies we can speak to at the time of writing. The market moves: agencies narrow their specialization, change pricing models, or get acquired.

[BrowseHub](https://browsehub.co) maintains a curated directory of vetted design agencies with filtering by specialization, pricing, and location, which is a useful starting point for comparison beyond this list.

For verified review data, [Clutch's web design rankings](https://clutch.co/web-designers) remain the most reliable source: client reviews, project sizes, hourly rates, and industry focus in one place. Every number in this article came from there, and every number will drift.

## What matters at the end

Redesign selection goes wrong in a predictable way. Buyers evaluate on portfolio because portfolio is easy to evaluate, then discover after launch that the thing they needed was migration discipline, which no portfolio displays.

The research behind this list found something worth repeating: [Clutch's 2025 survey of 406 US small business owners](https://clutch.co/resources/state-of-small-business-websites-2025) found 90% planning to invest in their website within the next twelve months. A lot of money is about to move through this category, and [a third of the marketers who spent it last time were unhappy with the result](https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/website-redesign-timelines).

Ask the redirect question first. If you know what you need and want to talk scope, [we're here](https://www.themasterly.com/services/web-design).

## FAQ

**What does a website redesign agency do that a web design agency doesn't?**

A web design agency starts from a blank canvas. A redesign agency inherits a live system: pages that rank, forms wired into a CRM, campaigns pointing at existing URLs, and a pipeline that depends on all of it surviving launch day. The extra work is migration discipline, a URL inventory, a redirect map, content parity on ranking pages, and attribution testing before cutover. Agencies that only build new sites price a redesign like a new build and discover the difference after launch, when the traffic drops.

**How much do website redesign agencies charge?**

Among the agencies on this list, minimum project sizes on Clutch run from $10,000 to $50,000, with hourly rates of $50–99 at the lower end and $150–199 at the upper. Huemor publishes its own range and puts most website rebuilds at $50,000–$100,000 over 12 to 16 weeks. Teams that design in Figma and hand the build to coding agents deliver comparable marketing-site scope for less. Our pricing breakdown covers the tiers with time-tracker receipts from a real engagement.

**How do I vet a redesign agency for SEO migration?**

Ask three questions before you look at a portfolio. What is your redirect-map process? How do you handle content parity on pages that already rank? What do you monitor in the first month after launch? An agency that has run real migrations answers with specifics: URL inventory, one-to-one redirects, Search Console monitoring. One that has not will redirect the conversation to design quality. That exchange is a better filter than any case-study review.

**How many agencies should I ask for a proposal?**

Three to six. Below three you have no basis for comparison; above six, the expected value of responding drops enough that strong agencies opt out and your inbox fills with teams for whom mass proposals are the business model. State the number in your brief. "One of four" reads as a real evaluation; "one of twenty" reads as procurement theater.

**Should I hire a local agency for a website redesign?**

Only if your buying process requires it. Redesign work is remote by nature: Figma, a repo, a call. Location matters when legal or procurement needs a local entity, or when the project depends on in-person workshops with many stakeholders. Otherwise specialization beats proximity, and searching by city narrows you to whoever ranks locally rather than whoever has done your kind of migration.
