Custom website builds
A responsive website built around your business, from a focused service site to a more detailed online home. I can bring your existing designs to life or handle design and development together.

What would you like to build?
A website. An application.
A better way to work.
You might need a straightforward website, a useful new feature or something more bespoke. We’ll choose the right approach for your goals, with a clear scope and a tailored quote before work begins.
02 / CONTENT
Content you can manage
Keep your pages, articles, services and project work up to date with a content management system. I’ll shape the editing experience around the updates you actually need to make.
03 / CUSTOMERS
Bookings & ecommerce
Help customers take the next step with appointment bookings, reservations or an online shop. We’ll work through availability, payments and the day-to-day management your business needs.
04 / APPLICATIONS
Bespoke Laravel applications
When an off-the-shelf tool doesn’t fit, build around your own way of working. Customer portals, dashboards, CRM systems and internal tools can bring your information and processes together.
05 / CONNECTIONS
Integrations & automation
Connect your website with the tools you already rely on. From passing enquiries to your CRM to sharing information between systems, useful integrations can reduce repetitive work and double entry.
06 / NEXT STEPS
Improve what you have
Add a new feature, resolve a frustrating issue or improve how an existing site performs. I’ll review the current setup first, then recommend a practical update or a rebuild where it makes sense.
Bespoke Laravel · security by design
A stronger foundation
for your application.
When your website needs accounts, private business data or connections to other systems, security needs to be considered from the start. I build bespoke Laravel applications around the people, permissions and processes your business actually needs.
Laravel security tools, applied with care. Protections for web forms, request validation, authentication and server-side authorization give an application useful safeguards. I shape access rules around who should see each record and perform each action.
Your features, without an unnecessary plugin stack. Purpose-built functionality avoids relying on general-purpose WordPress plugins you don’t need, reducing exposure to plugin-specific vulnerabilities and known automated probes.
API connections with clear boundaries. A bespoke application can connect to your CRM, booking, accounting or stock systems where their APIs allow it. We can limit the information shared to what each workflow needs.

API CONNECTIONSScoped to purpose
Custom development is not a guarantee against attacks. Secure implementation, maintained dependencies and appropriate hosting all matter. We’ll shape those choices around your application and the services it needs to connect with.
The care behind the code
Useful on the surface.
Considered underneath.
I specialise in Laravel and web applications, with a design background that keeps the experience in focus. The technology should support your business and feel natural to the people using it.
Meet the person building itMade for real people
Responsive layouts, clear forms, keyboard-friendly interactions and useful feedback help customers and your team get things done on different devices.
Built with care
Maintainable code, sensible access controls and careful handling of form submissions matter just as much as the visible details. I consider performance and security throughout the build.
Room for what’s next
Start with the features that matter today, with a structure that can evolve. Hosting, updates and ongoing support can be shaped around your needs after launch.
A clear path to a working product
From “could we?”
to “here it is.”
You’ll work directly with me throughout. We’ll agree what matters, build it thoughtfully and give you time to review how it works before it goes live.
Talk through your project- 01
Understand the job
We discuss your goals, the people using the site and any existing systems it needs to work with.

I map out the pages, features and priorities, with a clear quote and a realistic plan for delivery.

Test, launch & hand over
We check the key journeys, forms and responsive layouts, then prepare for launch with a practical handover and agreed support.
A few useful details
Good questions.
Clear answers.
You don’t need a technical brief to get started. Tell me what you want to make easier or what you’d like your website to do.
Let’s work it out togetherCan you build from designs I already have?
Yes. I can focus on development and turn your designs into a responsive website. If you need help with the visual direction too, I can bring design and development together in one project. Explore web design ↗
Do I need a custom application or a simpler website?
It depends on what people need to do. A focused website may be enough to explain your services and bring in enquiries. Accounts, dashboards, bespoke workflows or connected business systems may call for an application. We’ll talk through your requirements and choose an approach that fits.
How is development priced?
Every build starts with an agreed scope and a tailored quote. The homepage guide price for a focused new website is typically £700–£950 including VAT, based on 4–5 pages, supplied content and up to two feedback rounds. CMS functionality, booking systems, ecommerce and other custom modules need additional development and are quoted separately as a set price. See the website options ↗
Can you help after the website goes live?
Yes. I offer website hosting, updates and ongoing support, along with content changes and future feature development. We can agree the level of care that suits your website and how your business plans to grow.
