Our WordPress web development service is about what's underneath your site: the theme architecture, the custom functionality and the integrations that make the whole thing actually work.
Off-the-shelf themes are fine until they’re not. Load times creep up, you can’t change what you need to change without breaking something else, and you’re carrying features you’ll never use. Worse, when something goes wrong at 9pm before a product launch, the theme developer’s support forum is not where you want to be.
We build custom WordPress sites from scratch. That means a leaner codebase, faster pages and a site your team can actually manage without calling us every time. When you do need us, we’re here.
WordPress Development Services
Hand-coded themes built to your designs, not adapted from a starter template. Lightweight, accessible and straightforward to manage through the WordPress block editor.
When WordPress doesn’t do something natively, we build it. Booking systems, calculators, configurators, custom workflows; whatever your site needs to do, without loading it up with third-party plugins that slow everything down.
Flexible content structures built with the block editor and Advanced Custom Fields, so your team can update pages without accidentally breaking the layout.
Custom WooCommerce stores and extensions, built by a certified WooCommerce Pro Partner. From bespoke checkout flows to complex product logic and trade portals.
Connecting WordPress to your CRM, ERP, payment gateway or any other platform through clean, documented API integrations.
Using WordPress as a content management system with a React or Next.js front end, for when you need serious performance gains or a more app-like experience. We’ll tell you straight whether it’s actually worth it for your project.
Moving from Wix, Squarespace, Webflow or an older WordPress build? We migrate your content, keep your redirects intact and rebuild on something that’ll last.
Core Web Vitals improvements, caching, image optimisation and clean code to keep your site quick. Security hardening and monitoring to keep it safe. Backed by our hosting and support packages if you want us to look after it ongoing.
Every project is different, but the process tends to follow the same broad shape.
We start with a proper discovery conversation to understand what the site needs to do, who it’s for and how it fits into the rest of your business. From there we map out the architecture and any integrations before a line of code gets written. That upfront work saves a lot of time later.
Design and development happen in close collaboration rather than as separate handoffs. We test across devices and browsers before launch and we’re on hand afterwards, whether that’s a quick fix or a longer support arrangement.
Whether you need a custom theme, a bespoke plugin or a full headless build, get in touch and we’ll take it from there.
Design is how your site looks and guides people towards taking action. Development is the engineering side: the custom theme, the functionality, the integrations and the performance work. Most projects need both and we handle the lot in-house.
Custom, hand-coded themes built to your designs every time. No off-the-shelf starting point, so you get a faster, leaner site without features you'll never need.
Yes. We build bespoke plugins and features when WordPress doesn't do something natively, rather than adding third-party plugins that slow things down and create maintenance headaches.
Headless means using WordPress to manage content while serving the front end through a framework like React or Next.js. It's not the right call for every project, but it can deliver real performance improvements when the use case fits. We'll give you an honest view on whether it's worth it.
Absolutely. We take on existing builds for new features, performance and security work or a full rebuild and migration.
Every project is scoped and quoted before we start, so you know what you're getting and what it costs. Get in touch and we'll work through it with you.
In-house at our studios in Derby and Nottingham, working with clients across the East Midlands and the UK.
