Nice one mate, getting better.
I'd get someone to make you a graphic for the name of your company that fits in with your colour scheme and design.
Have a play round with some more fonts, pick one that suits it more; that is not as effective as some could be..
And your link bar needs a bit of tweaking, as im sure your aware of also..
Good start
Keep it up.
If you need help with coding etc, I don't mind lending a hand to help you out. It would have to be in the weekend; but I'm sure you'd rather enjoy the learning curve. Good basis for programming if your into that..

It not loading for me.
I always try to judge hard, but it's for your own good 
When I visited your website, first thing I noticed too much wording. I got lost. I'd get rid of the paragraphs in the index page. The only things I'd put in there:
- Make your visitors know that they're in the right place. Inpatient visitors, like me, tend to leave when they see all that wording. So I'd only put the following
1. Short description of your work. If possible, don't use wording, use pictures. Make it the center of attraction (bright colours etc...), so that they first look at it and know that they found what they've been looking for.
Contact information:
List your contact information, and make it easy to read... yes on the first page.
Branding:
Create your branding and use it wherever you're going to mention your business name; business cards, websites, etc... Branding is a full package including logo, name, font, colours and more. So create the website design using the same colours of your logo and the same goes for your business cards. The logo SHOULD NOT be the center of attraction, I don't care about the logo. Who cares? If I'm in the right place, I found what I'm looking for. But people tend to remember you when they see the colours on your business card, they remember your website as well, and they remember your brand... thus your service.
Link Bar:
Create a link bar, vertically or horizontally, doesn't matter. I prefer a horizontal link bar. Make them readable and make them LOOK like link buttons. Make them easy to notice what they're for. ie. don't name a button 'problem?' name it 'PC problem?' (stupid example, but that's what I thought of right now haha). Give all the details in these pages not the main page. Keep it short as possible.
Hope this helps.

To wordy
Also not very 'well spoken.' "I's" aren't capitalized, other grammatical errors. Split paragraphs up more.
Nice clean header. Good feedback form. Nice paypal cart. Good use of Google map.

the website is designed from sythasite, a free to use web builder, you are limited to website templates but this is the best i could find, wil sort the spelling out later on, i think the website looks professional and clean, i dont think there is alot of wording, thanks for the advice so far, i am no website designer and never will be, but i think this looks good,

Oh ok, that should give a reason to my post. Why don't you consider a web designer? Is it expensive? I don't have any ideas personally as I don't have a website and never asked a web designer for a website. But if possible I would consider it.

a few people have problems with the website, not sure why, try reloading it, everytime i have gone to it, i have had no problems.
Thanks and I'm Not Bashing
I know XHTML, CSS and Javascript takes time to learn but it sho does streamline and professionalize your website. For those who don't know, web pages are not your granpa's web page anyore. There's a whole new way of doing things with CSS....CSS makes your page load faster as it's not cluttered with font tags using little snippets of javascript can do some powerfull things to your web page in half the space so your web page will load faster..just a posted this to raise the consiousness of the this new philosophy..and even if you don't learn it, just puruse it so you can ask some good questions to whoever you are paying..
take care I'm off my horse now..
