Custom web development
Custom web development, scoped to the operation
Bespoke web software when a website, a spreadsheet or an off-the-shelf login is no longer enough.
What custom means here
Custom means the software follows your rules. A quote that depends on access, materials and the postcode. A client area that shows the documents you already produce. A form that creates the job in the system your office uses. It is not a reason to invent a platform.
We prefer boring, reliable technology and a handover you can understand. Every bespoke project is scoped individually, from £2,500. A larger system is priced from the workflow, not from a day rate hidden in a slogan.
A typical path
We write down the job the software has to do before we build the screens.
- Who uses it, and what they do today instead
- The inputs, the calculation and the exceptions
- What must be stored, and for how long
- What it should connect to, if anything
- How you will change a price or a status without a developer
Ownership and care
You should be able to leave with the work. Hosting and third-party accounts sit in your name where they can. Care after launch is a separate plan: monitoring, small changes and a person to call when a connection breaks. A build with no plan for the following year is an incomplete proposal, and we will include that conversation in the scope.
Questions
Do I have to use a particular page builder?
No. We choose the setup that fits how you will update the site. You are not pushed into a builder, and the accounts should be in your name.
How much does a website cost for a small business in Lancashire?
The published starting prices are £750 for a Website Starter, £1,250 for a Business Website, £2,000 for Growth and £2,500 for a bespoke system. They are the same whether the business is in Lancashire, Greater Manchester or further away. Monthly care starts at £49. We confirm the figure in writing before any build starts, and we do not add a local surcharge.
Do you only build websites for trades?
No. We build for any UK small business. Roofers, driveway and landscaping firms, kitchen and bathroom companies, and car detailers have dedicated pages because we know those jobs well. Those pages are extras, not a limit.

The website check is a first look at the public page. If you already know you want a build, book a call and we will come back with an indication.
