Web Design & Development
in Birmingham.
Hand-built on Astro, Next.js or a headless CMS. The kind of site Google rewards and your team can actually edit. No templates, no page builders, no plugin salad.
How we work with
Birmingham businesses.
Birmingham is the UK's second city and one of its most competitive SME markets, jewellery-quarter makers, professional services in Colmore Row, food and drink brands in Digbeth. Your site has to work harder here because the average competitor is already sharp. Birmingham clients brief us most often on fixed-scope brand identities and full marketing sites on the Astro stack. Remote-first, UK phone, GDPR-compliant, serving UK businesses since 2018, kickoffs and reviews on Zoom, async day-to-day, no billed travel.
Birmingham web design clients usually come from Jewellery Quarter makers, Colmore Row professional services, or Digbeth food and drink, three buyer profiles, three different builds. We default to Astro for the makers (image-heavy, fast on mobile), Next.js for the professional-services firms (dynamic content, gated resources), and headless commerce for food and drink with multi-location ordering.
We build web design & development for founders and marketing leads in Birmingham who want senior attention without the big-agency bill. Fixed scope, fixed price, written proposal before any commitment. Same team, same process, same 14-day-payout quality standard whether you're in Birmingham or anywhere else we ship.

Common questions.
Do you understand the Birmingham SME market?
Yes, we've delivered brand and web work for Jewellery Quarter makers, Colmore Row professional-services firms and Digbeth food brands. Each has a different tone and a different competitor set, we don't apply the same template across all three.
Can you work without us coming to a Birmingham office?
That's the default. Zoom for meetings, Slack for async, weekly check-ins. We've never had a Birmingham client flag remote delivery as a problem, if you're used to agency face-time, the first call is the moment you stop missing it.
What's the lead time for Birmingham projects?
Typically 2–3 weeks out before we can start. Brand Identity projects run 4–5 weeks of active work; Marketing sites 6–8 weeks. Full pricing and timelines on /services, we give a fixed date on the proposal after the first call.
How much does a website cost in the UK in 2026?
Realistic UK 2026 ranges for a small-business marketing site: £1,500–£3,500 for a one-page Landing build, £4,000–£12,000 for a 5–10 page Marketing site with a CMS, £12,000–£40,000 for custom apps or commerce platforms. Anything below £1,500 is usually a Wix/Squarespace template with a freelancer hourly tacked on; anything above £40,000 for a marketing site is usually paying for an agency's office rent. Our packages sit in the honest middle · £3,500 / £6,500 / £12k+ · with the scope written into the proposal so you know exactly what you're buying.
Astro vs WordPress for a UK small business · which should we pick?
WordPress if you need a 200-plugin marketplace and don't mind the security and performance cost; Astro if you want a fast site that ranks well, loads in <1s on 3G, and your team can edit through a clean CMS without breaking it. For most UK SMEs we ship Astro by default · the Lighthouse 95+ score cuts ad costs (lower CPC because of better landing-page experience scores) and the lack of plugin sprawl means fewer 2 a.m. "the site is down" calls. Migration from WordPress is a standard part of the brief.
Are you GDPR-compliant for UK clients?
Yes · GDPR-compliant by default. No third-party analytics that fingerprint visitors without consent (we run Plausible or self-hosted analytics), transparent cookie policy with granular consent, data-processing addendums where your DPO needs them, and EU/UK-resident hosting on Cloudflare or Vercel's London edge. We've shipped sites that passed UK legal, insurance and asset-management DPO reviews with zero findings.
What stack do you build in?
Astro for marketing sites, Next.js for apps, Shopify for commerce, WordPress if you genuinely need it. We recommend the stack that fits your team, not ours.
Do you design first, or jump into code?
Always design first. You approve Figma designs, fully interactive, mobile-first, before we write a line of code.
What about hosting?
We deploy to Vercel, Netlify or Cloudflare by default. You own the account. No vendor lock-in to us.
Can you take over an existing site?
Often yes. We'll audit it on the discovery call and tell you honestly whether a rebuild or a refresh makes more sense.
How do you handle SEO?
Technical SEO is in every build: clean HTML, schema, sitemaps, fast LCP, proper meta tags. That gets you found. Content SEO (writing the articles that rank) is a separate retainer · Starter £599/mo, Growth £999/mo, Full £1,800/mo · covered there because it lives next to the content calendar.
Can you work with our existing brand guidelines?
Yes. Send us the brand guidelines in the brief and we design within them. Figma handoff welcome.
Do you guarantee Lighthouse 95+?
Yes, on Marketing and Platform packages. Landing pages target 90+. We test on real devices and real connections · not just lab benchmarks.
What if we need changes after launch?
Every package includes post-launch support · 30 days on Landing, 60 on Marketing. After that, move to a Care Plan retainer (Basic £149/mo, Standard £249/mo, Priority £449/mo) or quote per hour at £85/hr UK, $110/hr USD, LKR 7,500/hr LK.
Do you offer faster turnaround packages for founders?
Yes. Our MVP Web package ships a focused homepage + contact page in 10–14 days for £1,800 / $2,300 / LKR 155,000. MVP Brand (logo + colours) is £850 / $1,080 / LKR 73,000 in 5–7 days. The MVP Launch Bundle pairs both for £2,400 / $3,060 / LKR 207,000. For technical founders, an MVP SaaS Landing Page with waitlist integration is £2,200 / $2,800 / LKR 190,000 in 2 weeks.
Do you have add-ons for packages?
Yes, billed separately · extra page templates (£350), copywriting per page (£150), e-commerce via WooCommerce up to 50 products (£2,200) or Shopify (£1,800), multilingual site per additional language (£800), custom animation layers (£600+), standalone SEO audit at launch (£350). Discussed on the call, priced on the proposal.
