When your website is slow, unstable or abandoned by its last developer, you rarely need a £15,000 rebuild. You need a fixed-price diagnostic, an honest report, and someone senior to take responsibility for putting it right.
If any of these describe your website or infrastructure, a rescue sprint is a far easier first purchase than an open-ended retainer or a rebuild quote.
Every rescue starts with a paid, fixed-fee diagnostic. In a few days we review the seven areas where business websites actually fail — and hand you a prioritised, fixed-price remediation plan in plain English. Start remediation within 30 days and the diagnostic fee is credited in full.
The report is yours to keep, whoever does the work. No lock-in, no scare tactics — just evidence.
All prices exclude VAT and third-party infrastructure costs, and are confirmed in a written scope before any work starts.
The full seven-point review of your site, servers and deployments, delivered as a plain-English report with a prioritised remediation plan.
The urgent items from your remediation plan: working backups, monitoring, security patching and the fixes that stop the firefighting.
A larger programme of remediation for sites and systems that need structural work — performance, database, infrastructure and code health.
Bespoke applications, multi-server estates and inherited platforms with significant unknowns get a properly scoped, staged proposal.
A rescue puts the fire out. A Managed Website & Cloud Care plan keeps it out — monitoring, backups, updates, security checks and reserved development hours from £295/month. Agencies can also resell rescue work under our white-label partner programme.
Usually a rescue. Most 'this site needs rebuilding' conversations are really about reliability, speed, security and ownership — all fixable on the platform you already have, for a fraction of a rebuild. The diagnostic tells you honestly which side of the line you are on; if a rebuild genuinely is the right answer, the report will say so and explain why.
Access to your hosting, code repository (if one exists) and site admin — we guide you through granting it safely, document everything we are given, and recommend access clean-up as part of the work. If credentials are lost because a previous developer disappeared, recovering control is often the first job.
WordPress and WooCommerce estates, custom PHP/Node/Python applications, React and Next.js front-ends, and the infrastructure underneath: VPS servers, Docker, CI/CD pipelines and major cloud providers. If your stack is unusual, ask — the diagnostic is exactly for finding out what you have.
Yes. Start a stabilisation sprint or recovery project within 30 days of receiving your report and the full diagnostic fee is credited against it. If you take the report and fix things in-house or elsewhere, that is a fine outcome too — the plan is yours to keep.
Most clients move onto a Managed Website & Cloud Care plan so the estate stays monitored, patched and backed up — with development hours for improvements. That is optional: nothing about a rescue locks you in.
Tell us what's going wrong and we'll confirm the diagnostic scope, fixed fee and start date — usually within one UK business day.
