Other SEO Thoughts:

The number one problem with the optimization of this page is that the phrase "office fitouts" is not found in the text of the page anywhere. I would focus on getting that exact phrase into the <h1> headline and into the body content.

Optimizing a home page is always hard. Because generally you want the home page to show off everything you do, rather than just one thing. It's better to optimize the home page of your site for your site name or a generic term that describes what it's about, than to try to get specific. Instead, try to get high ranking for inner pages for very specific terms, and use the home page as a reference for people who already know about your site to get to the various inner pages.
