WordPress, bespoke builds, and everything in between.
From WordPress sites with clever custom plugins to hand-coded HTML where performance matters most. I build what fits the brief, not what fits a template. 25 years of getting it right.

A genuine pleasure from start to finish. Tom is a brilliant artist with a sharp eye and a great presence in front of the lens.

A WordPress and Elementor Pro site for Mark's canoe and electric boat hire business on the Norfolk Broads, with a custom-built booking plugin designed around his specific timing rules and availability requirements.
Built for Mark at Boat Hire Norwich, operating from the River Yare and Wensum at Thorpe St Andrew. The site needed to be straightforward and welcoming for a local audience, while standing out in a competitive leisure market. The centrepiece is a custom WordPress plugin developed specifically around Mark's booking logic, controlling start times, durations, and availability in a way that no off-the-shelf solution could handle cleanly. The result is a streamlined, reliable booking experience that makes hiring a boat as simple as it should be.
This site. Built without a CMS or framework — pure HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Proof that for the right brief, a hand-coded site outperforms WordPress on speed, SEO and AI search visibility.
Most projects call for WordPress — it's flexible, content-manageable, and the right tool for the majority of clients. But for a portfolio, brochure site, or anything where performance and search visibility matter most, a hand-coded site wins on every metric. No plugin overhead. No theme to fight. Structured data baked in from day one. Pages that load in well under a second. And because AI search engines read clean semantic HTML far more reliably than CMS-generated output, a site like this has a genuine edge in the way the web is moving. If you're wondering whether your project fits this approach, get in touch.
