We get things done properly.
Magento 2 and Adobe Commerce take most of our engineering time, with WooCommerce and Shopify where they genuinely suit the business better. Then the custom software that joins it all together - CRMs, integrations, internal tools and the apps on top of them - and the bespoke WordPress sites everything else hangs off. All built by the same team, and looked after afterwards if you want us to.

Start where you actually are
-
“We are on Magento 2.4.5 or 2.4.6”
Both releases lost security support on 11 August 2026. No patches are being issued, and PCI DSS compliance goes with them.
Magento Health & Upgrade Audit Everything on Adobe Commerce & Magento 2 -
“We inherited a site nobody has maintained”
No logins, no backups, two years of updates un-run. The first job is getting control back, not redesigning anything.
WordPress Rescue & Takeover Everything on WordPress -
“Our systems each hold a different version of the truth”
The store, the ERP and the CRM disagree, and somebody is reconciling them by hand every week.
Discovery & Technical Spec Everything on Custom Software -
“Our Shopify store looks like everyone else's”
A marketplace theme with the colours changed, and a checkout nobody has measured since launch.

How an engagement runs
The same four stages whatever the platform. The first one is paid, fixed and credited back, which is the part most agencies do differently. Apart from those fixed first steps, the prices further down this page are indicative, and every project gets a fixed quote once we have scoped the work.
-
Scope
A paid first step, credited back
Every specialism opens with a fixed-price piece of work under £5,000 - an audit, a discovery, a review, a rescue. It is credited in full against the build that follows. The senior engineer who writes it is the one who does the work: no account manager relaying findings they do not understand.
-
Design
Designed, not templated
No marketplace themes and no page-builder sprawl. Interfaces are designed for the catalogue and the checkout you actually have, and you see them on staging from the first week rather than in a slide deck at the end.
-
Build
Built once, tested before it ships
Core Web Vitals and WCAG 2.2 AA are pass conditions, not line items. Work is deployed from a pipeline, never from a laptop, and regression-tested against the release you are moving to before anything touches production.
-
Care
Support if you want it, code you own either way
Two weeks of hypercare after launch as standard. After that, rolling monthly support with a named engineer if you want it. Every line of code, every design file and every licence is yours outright: nothing is locked to us, and leaving costs nothing.
Adobe Commerce & Magento 2
Where most of our engineering time goes. Security upgrades for stores stranded on an unsupported release, Hyvä frontends for stores that are supported but slow, and replatforms for businesses moving onto Magento from something they have outgrown. Every engagement opens with the £950 audit, credited in full against the build.

Why people hire us
Six things you can check rather than six adjectives. If any of them turn out not to be true, you will know on the first call.
-
The engineer who scopes it, builds it
The audit is written by the person who then does the upgrade. Findings do not get relayed, softened or lost between two people.
-
Bespoke, or we say no
Magento 2 and WordPress, built from the ground up. We turn down work that would be better served by a template - and say so on the call rather than after the invoice.
-
Owned outright
Code, designs and licences are yours. No proprietary framework, no hosting lock-in, no exit fee dressed up as a migration.
-
Fast has a number attached
Core Web Vitals measured before and after, on real pages, with the numbers in the handover. Not “lightning fast” in a proposal.
-
Accessibility is a pass condition
WCAG 2.2 AA tested before launch, not retrofitted after a complaint. It is part of the definition of done on every build.
-
Two offices, one team
Canterbury in Kent and Tipperary in Ireland, working with clients across the UK, Europe and North America. The same engineers on every project.
Which platform should you actually be on?
Most of the platform advice online is written by people who sell one platform. Here is the version we give on a first call, including the cases where the answer is that you do not need us.
Stay on Magento 2 or Adobe Commerce if you have a large or complex catalogue, B2B pricing, multiple stores or warehouses, or an ERP and PIM that already drive the store. The running cost is real, and so is the ceiling - nothing else handles that complexity as well. If you are on an unsupported release, the upgrade is not optional, but it is also the moment to get a Hyvä frontend for less than doing the two separately.
WooCommerce earns its place when the catalogue is in the hundreds rather than the tens of thousands, the content matters as much as the products, and the team is small. It is cheaper to run and quicker to change. The honest part of that conversation is writing down the triggers that would mean outgrowing it - catalogue size, order volume, integration count - so the move happens on schedule rather than during a crisis.
Shopify suits merchants who want the hosting, PCI compliance and checkout handled, and who would rather spend their budget on the storefront than the stack. What it does not have to be is a marketplace theme with the colours changed.
WordPress without commerce is the right answer far more often than agencies admit - if you are selling a service, publishing, or generating leads, a bespoke WordPress site does the job at a fraction of the cost of a store you will not use.
Custom software is the answer when the problem is not the storefront at all: the systems behind it hold three versions of the truth, and somebody is reconciling them by hand. That starts with discovery, not with a quote.
Not sure which you need?
Tell us about your business and we’ll recommend the right mix - and say so if the answer is less work, not more.
