A WordPress site built like software, not assembled like flat-pack

Most WordPress sites are a theme, thirty plugins and hope. Ours are built: lean themes from your designs, only the plugins that earn their keep, performance measured before launch, and an admin area your team can actually use without breaking things.

what we build

Websites we take on

Business & marketing sites

Your company's public face: fast, credible, findable. Built from your Figma designs pixel-accurately, with the content structured so marketing can iterate without a developer.

Theme-customised builds

Modest budget? We customise a professionally designed premium theme to your brand — honest about the trade-offs, and still built to our standards underneath.

Content & publication sites

News sections, resources, multi-author editorial — WordPress doing what it was born for, with custom post types keeping content structured rather than mushed into pages.

Campaign & microsites

Launched fast, measured properly, and either archived cleanly or graduated into the main site — without becoming the forgotten subdomain security nightmare.

Sites that will grow into stores

Built store-ready from day one, so adding WooCommerce later is an extension, not a rebuild.

Redesigns on existing WordPress

New design, same platform: we rebuild the theme properly, migrate content, keep your SEO with a full redirect map, and usually fix years of accumulated cruft on the way.

// the standard

What "built properly" means here

A lean theme, not a 40MB multipurpose monster. Plugins chosen like dependencies — each one a maintenance commitment we're prepared to defend. Performance measured against Core Web Vitals before launch, accessibility checked, staging environment included, and everything in version control. The result is a site that's fast on day one and still maintainable in year five — which is where cheap builds quietly become expensive ones.

Common questions

What does a new WordPress site cost?

Professionally built business sites typically run £3,000–£8,000; larger or heavily integrated sites £10,000+. Theme-customised builds can come in lower — ask, and we'll tell you honestly which route fits your budget.

Can we edit everything ourselves afterwards?

Yes — that's a design goal. Editors get structured fields and sensible blocks, not a page builder minefield. Training and documentation are part of handover.

Do you do the design too?

We build from your designs, partner you with a designer we trust (one contract, one point of contact), or customise a premium theme — whichever fits your budget and ambitions.

What about after launch?

WordPress needs maintenance like any software. Most clients take a care plan from £29/month; if you'd rather self-maintain, the handover pack shows you how.

Designs in hand, an old site to replace, or just a business that needs a proper web presence — a developer replies with honest first thoughts, usually the same day.
