Service 01
A website that loads fast, reads well, and brings you work.
Most business websites fail for boring reasons: they take too long to load on a phone, they bury the one thing a visitor came for, and nobody has touched them since launch. We build sites that fix all three, and we keep them running afterwards.
Sound familiar?
What usually brings people here.
- Your site takes several seconds to load on mobile data
- Visitors arrive and leave without contacting you
- Nobody on your team can update a page without calling a developer
- Your last agency disappeared and took the passwords with them
- The site looks fine on a laptop and falls apart on a phone
What's included
What the work involves.
Business and content scoping
We start by working out what the site has to achieve — enquiries, orders, bookings — and design backwards from that. Not from a template.
Design that fits your business
A layout built around your actual services and your actual customers, not a theme demo with your logo dropped into it.
Build on a modern stack
Next.js and React for marketing sites and web apps; Shopify or WooCommerce when you're selling products and need the ecosystem. We pick per project and explain why.
Performance as a requirement
We target sub-2-second loads on a mid-range Android over 4G, because that is what your customers are actually using. Speed is specified up front, not hoped for.
Editable without us
You get a way to change your own content. No calling an agency to fix a typo.
Maintenance that continues
Updates, backups, monitoring and fixes after launch — on a plan, not an emergency.

How we work
Six steps, no surprises.
You know the price and the scope before anything is built, and you can see progress the whole way through.
- 01
Scope call
Thirty minutes. You describe the problem; we ask questions and tell you roughly what it would take. Free, and there's no pitch deck.
You get: An honest read on whether we're the right fit
- 02
Proposal
A written scope with a fixed price and a delivery date. Everything included is listed, and so is everything that isn't.
You get: A fixed price and a date, in writing
- 03
Design
Layouts and flows for review before anything is built. Changes at this stage cost nothing, which is exactly why we do it here.
You get: Designs you've approved before code starts
- 04
Build
We build in stages with a live preview link throughout. You watch it come together instead of waiting in silence for a reveal.
You get: A preview link updated as we go
- 05
Launch
Testing, migration and go-live. We handle the domain and hosting cutover, and we're on hand through it.
You get: A live site and every account in your name
- 06
Iterate or hand over
We keep it running on a maintenance plan, or we hand over documentation and code and you take it from there. Both are fine.
You get: Ongoing support, or a clean handover
FAQ
Web Development — common questions
How long does a website take?
A focused marketing site is typically 3–5 weeks from scope call to launch. An e-commerce build or a site with custom functionality is 6–12 weeks. We give you a date in the proposal and tell you immediately if anything threatens it.
Do I own the site when it's finished?
Completely. Code, domain, hosting account, analytics — all in your name. There is no proprietary system holding your site hostage, and you can take it to another developer whenever you like.
Can you work with our existing WordPress site?
Yes — we do maintenance, speed work and redesigns on existing WordPress sites. We will also tell you honestly if rebuilding would cost less than continuing to patch it.
What about hosting?
Most of our sites run on Vercel, which is free at small scale and fast everywhere. For WordPress we'll recommend a host and set it up. Either way the account is yours.

Tell us what you're trying to build.
A thirty-minute call, no pitch deck. You describe the problem; we tell you what it would actually take — including when the answer is that you don't need us.
