// care plans

Software isn't finished at launch

Frameworks update, security patches land weekly, app stores change their rules. Our care plans keep your website or app patched, monitored, backed up and quietly improving — for one predictable monthly fee, handled by developers.

drupal

Drupal support retainers

Drupal's security team is one of the best in open source — but it only protects sites that apply the patches. Serious Drupal vulnerabilities have historically been exploited within hours of disclosure on unpatched sites. A retainer means someone owns your updates, with an SLA to prove it.

wordpress

WordPress care plans

WordPress powers over 40% of the web — which makes it the most attacked platform on the internet. A care plan replaces "someone clicks update and prays" with a process: staged updates, tested before deploy, backed up before anything is touched.

Maintain

£29/month

Keep it safe and current.

  • Core, theme & plugin updates — weekly, tested on staging first
  • Daily off-site backups, 30-day retention
  • Security & uptime monitoring, malware scanning
  • Monthly plain-English report
  • Email support, next-business-day response

Perform

£99/month

For sites that earn their keep.

  • Everything in Protect
  • 2 hours of development/month (rolls over one month)
  • Monthly performance work against Core Web Vitals
  • Staging site maintained for your team
  • Database optimization & cleanup
  • Direct line to a named developer

Multi-site discounts from 3+ sites. Prices exclude VAT. Hosting available from £25/month, or we work with your existing host.

mobile apps

Mobile app care plans

Every year, iOS and Android change underneath your app. Store policies tighten, libraries deprecate, certificates expire — and unmaintained apps get delisted or start crashing. Maintenance isn't an optional extra on a mobile app; it's the difference between an asset and a countdown.

Monitor

£59/month

Keep it alive and in the stores.

  • Crash & error monitoring with alerting
  • Store policy compliance watch, both stores
  • Certificate, provisioning & credential management
  • Quarterly dependency & security review
  • Annual OS-compatibility testing

Evolve

£239/month

For apps that are part of the business.

  • Everything in Maintain
  • 6 development hours/month (rolls over one quarter)
  • Laravel backend maintenance included — one plan, whole product
  • Monthly analytics & crash-trend review
  • Quarterly store listing optimization & roadmap call

Prices exclude VAT and store fees (paid by you, in your own accounts — you keep ownership). Major React Native/Expo version migrations are flagged early and quoted separately — never sprung on you.

every plan

Standard on all of them

  • Onboarding audit — we review the site or app before taking responsibility for it; any pre-existing critical issues are flagged (and quoted separately) up front.
  • Staging-first, backup-before-change — nothing hits production untested, and every update is reversible.
  • Everything logged — your monthly report shows exactly where time went. No mystery invoices.
  • No lock-in — rolling monthly after the first three months, 30 days' notice, full handover pack. Your site, code and accounts stay yours.
faq

Common questions

Can you take on a site or app you didn't build?

Yes — that's most of our care plan clients. The onboarding audit makes sure we both know what we're starting with.

What counts as included edits / development hours?

Small, contained work: content changes, styling tweaks, configuration, minor bug fixes, small enhancements. Larger features are quoted separately, with plan clients getting priority scheduling and discounted rates.

Can I upgrade or downgrade?

Any month, with 30 days' notice. Sites often start on the middle tier and move up as they grow.

What's the contract term?

Rolling monthly after an initial three months. 30 days' notice, no exit fees, full handover.
