If you fit the Starter Site brief, it’s £649. If you need the Business Site, it’s £999. Both prices are on this page, both are fixed, both include everything listed. E-commerce and bespoke work is genuinely priced individually because complexity varies wildly, but we’ll give you a firm number after a quick chat. No “from £499” bait-and-switch.

Most Starter Sites take 2–3 weeks from kick-off to launch. Business Sites typically 3–5 weeks. E-commerce builds vary depending on product catalogue size and integrations. Because everything happens on a live staging URL, you don’t have to wait until the end to see progress. You can look whenever you like.

Within 24 hours of you signing off the brief, we put your site on a private URL only you and we can see. As we build, you can watch it grow in real time, page by page. If you don’t like something, you tell us, and we change it on the spot, not in a fortnight after a formal revision round. It’s the opposite of how almost every other agency works, and it’s the single biggest reason our clients don’t end up with sites they didn’t want.

No. WordPress is what most clients ask for, so it’s what most of this page is about. We also work on fully custom platforms when the project demands it. A good example is Praf’s Kitchen, which runs on a bespoke ordering platform built by another developer. We worked alongside them to redesign the customer-facing experience and frontend. Collaboration like that is something we’re more than happy to do. If your project needs something WordPress can’t sensibly handle, we’ll tell you straight, and we’ll quote for whatever does fit, whether that’s a custom build of our own or working with an existing team.

We’re based in Claypole, right on the edge of Newark-on-Trent. Our patch covers Newark, Lincoln, Grantham, Sleaford, Boston, Spalding, and businesses across Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire. We’re happy to meet in person if you’re nearby. Most of the build happens on a private staging address anyway, so geography rarely gets in the way. We don’t hide behind email.

Yes, completely. On handover you get the full code, the database, the login credentials and a walkthrough of the WordPress dashboard. You can host it wherever you like, hand it to another developer if you ever want to, or run it yourself. Some agencies lock you into their hosting or use proprietary builders that trap your site. We don’t.

Every build includes proper technical SEO foundations: page titles, meta descriptions, clean URLs, XML sitemap, image optimisation, schema markup, and Core Web Vitals that won’t hurt your rankings. Included as standard on every project.

What we don’t offer is ongoing SEO management or ranking guarantees. Search rankings depend on your content, your competition, and your market, and they shift over time. The foundations we set up give you the best possible starting point. What you build on top of that, in terms of content and time, determines where you end up.

Starter Sites include 30 days of post-launch support. Business Sites include 60 days. That covers questions, minor adjustments, and anything that needs attention in the weeks after going live. Bigger changes and new features are quoted as needed. No surprise invoices, no disappearing acts.

Yes. Get in touch and we’ll talk through what makes sense for your setup.

We host your site during the build process on a private staging environment, and that’s included. Once you’re ready to launch, your site moves to a hosting provider of your choice. We’ll recommend a reputable UK host that suits your budget and requirements, and handle the full deployment for a fixed fee. You own the account, you control the billing, and you’re never tied to us for it.

Yes. Redesigns are a significant part of what we do. We’ll review your existing site before we start: what’s working, what isn’t, what’s worth keeping. We’ll build from there. If there’s content, imagery or structure worth carrying over, we’ll carry it over. If there’s a database or product catalogue that needs migrating, we’ll scope that separately and give you a price upfront.

Every site we build is set up correctly for search engines before it goes live: clean structure, proper page titles, sitemap submitted, everything indexed. Mobile-friendly, fast-loading, and fully optimised so Google’s performance signals work in your favour. How quickly it ranks depends on your content, your competition and your market, but the foundations will be done right, which is more than can be said for a lot of sites we see come through the door.

A conversation about your business: what it does, who it’s for, and what you need the site to achieve. We’re a no nonsense Lincolnshire web developer: no account managers, no handoffs, the same person from first message to launch. We won’t start until we’re both clear on what we’re building and what it costs. Fixed price, agreed upfront. That’s how it works here.

Yes. The site is yours and it’s fully editable. You can add pages, update content and upload images yourself through the WordPress dashboard, and we’ll show you how during the handover walkthrough. If you want new functionality, additional pages beyond the original scope, or a feature that needs development work, we’ll quote it as a separate piece of work. No pressure, no retainer required.

Yes, without hesitation. If your project involves sensitive business logic, proprietary processes, or anything you’d rather keep between us, we’ll sign an NDA before any detailed conversations take place. Just ask.

The live staging process exists specifically to make this a non-issue. You’re watching the site being built throughout, so if something isn’t right, you tell us and we fix it while you watch, not at the end of a six-week process when it’s too late to change anything without starting over. In practice, clients who can see their site taking shape rarely end up unhappy with it because there are no surprises. If something genuinely isn’t right, we’ll sort it. We’re not the sort to argue about it.

Yes. If you have a domain, we’ll work with it. If you have a logo and brand colours, we’ll design around them. You don’t need to start from scratch unless you want to.

That’s where we do difficult: we build bespoke WordPress plugins and standalone systems from scratch when off-the-shelf software can’t do the job: custom booking systems, custom WordPress plugin development, third-party API integrations, and operational logic specific to how a business actually runs. We do custom WordPress builds for Lincolnshire businesses that need something genuinely bespoke: systems built around how your operation actually works, not around what a plugin marketplace happened to have available. The kind of work most web designers won’t touch.

The Techfaulta build is a good example. Rather than dropping in a calendar plugin, we built a scheduling engine around how the business physically operates. It uses our Dearthwood Maps API to determine whether an engineer can realistically reach a new job given what’s already in the diary. If the customer’s postcode sits outside the service boundary, the booking is blocked at the point of submission. Every accepted appointment drops directly into Techfaulta’s own ticket system with no manual step in between.

That kind of operational logic is what separates software built for a business from software sold to one.

Bespoke development is priced on application. Tell us what you need and we’ll come back with a number. We start by understanding how your business actually runs. Most developers skip that bit. We don’t.

Yes. We have a browsable library of hand-coded WordPress theme demos at wordpress-themes-templates. Every one is a fully working, interactive site you can click through on any device right now, no consultation required. They cover a range of business types: trades, hospitality, retail, professional services, and more.

Because we built every theme ourselves, you’re not stuck with one fixed look. Pick a starting point, mix features from two different demos, or point at one and say the layout is right but you want the colours pushed a different way. The answer is always yes. No third-party developer putting a ceiling on what we can change.

And if nothing in the library fits your brief, we design from scratch. The demos are a faster way to communicate what you’re after, not a limit on what’s possible.

The process begins with understanding your business, your market, and your goals. Send us a short message about what you do and what you want the site to achieve. We’ll come back with a straight answer: which tier fits, the price, and a rough timeline. No high-pressure sales call. No “discovery workshop” invoice. Get in touch and we’ll go from there.
