I have a LO Writer template with small page, no header, no footer, no page numbers and styles that work in epubs.
I copy and paste from web page into LO Writer and often big chunks of body as "unformatted" (i.e. they'll use default body style).
I fix headings, lists, tables, images and links.
Delete any imported styles.
Save as native ODT for edits.
Make sure all images are jpg at 95% quality.
A last save as in docx.
Add to Calibre.
Convert to epub2.
Voila! Almost perfect epub.
You can make an epub from web pages with the extension "Save as eBook", that works for Chrome/Firefox/Opera. The ePub generated is very good and only need just some adjustment that you can make in Sigil or Calibre Editor; all the hard work is made by the extension.
