Sites, shops and booking systems for York businesses, including the ones where most of the year's money arrives in a few busy months.
No "contact us for a quote". These are the bands we work in, and the proposal names one number inside them.
| What you want | Price | Typical time |
|---|---|---|
| Custom business site | £1,500 to £4,000 | 1 to 2 weeks |
| Online shop | £2,500 to £6,000 | 2 to 3 weeks |
| Internal tool or customer portal | £3,000 to £12,000 | 2 to 4 weeks |
| Care plan after launch | £75 to £250 a month | ongoing |
| Rescue teardown of an existing build | free, 30 minutes | same week |
Bands, not a quote. The proposal names one number and one date, and the contract carries both.
Seasonal businesses have a particular problem: the website has to work hardest exactly when nobody has time to fix it. Build for that up front, with booking, availability and payment handled properly, and the busy months stop being a scramble.
Tourism and hospitality aside, York has a steady run of professional and specialist firms that need a credible site and a way to handle enquiries without a full CRM.
First drafts of screens, markup and logic. The repetitive 80%: forms, lists, plumbing, the fifth variation of the same page.
Scope, architecture, security, data protection, and the decision about what not to build. Every line reviewed and signed off by name.
Every project gets a build log: what was asked for, what it cost, how long it took, what the machine did and what the human did. Published, not summarised.
Booking and payments usually mean a third party service, and those carry their own monthly fees. We'll tell you what they cost before you commit, because they're your bills, not ours.
The risk with AI generated code is real and well documented: more bugs, more security holes, when nobody reviews it. That's why review is the product here. A senior engineer reads everything, security and UK GDPR are deliverables rather than extras, and their name goes on it.
We're based in Leeds. We'll come to York to scope the work and for anything that needs a room, and build remotely, which is part of why the price is what it is.
Because the typing got faster and we passed that on. The thinking, the review and the testing didn't get faster, which is why we're cheaper than an agency but not as cheap as a DIY tool. Anyone charging pre-AI day rates for AI-assisted work is pocketing the difference.
Yes. Code, repository, hosting and accounts, all in your name, no lock in. You can take it to any other developer the day after launch.
