Custom Web Apps

More than a website. A tool built around how your business actually works. Client portals, booking systems, internal dashboards, membership areas.

From £3,000

The problem

You've got a process that's held together with spreadsheets, emails, and manual work. It kind of works, but it doesn't scale and it's eating up your time.

Off-the-shelf software doesn't quite fit. You're paying for features you don't need and missing the ones you do.

You need something built around how your business actually operates.

What I build

Client portals

Give your clients a login where they can view their projects, download files, or track progress.

Booking systems

Let people book appointments, classes, or consultations, integrated with your calendar.

Internal dashboards

See your business data in one place. No more digging through spreadsheets.

Membership areas

Gated content, courses, or communities with user accounts and access control.

Custom forms & workflows

Multi-step forms, approval workflows, or intake processes that match how you work.

Database-driven tools

Inventory systems, directories, or any tool that needs to store and retrieve data.

What's included

  • Discovery & planning to understand your requirements
  • User interface design tailored to your brand
  • Full development and testing
  • User authentication and security

How it works

1

Discovery

We dig into your requirements. What problem are we solving? Who will use it? What does success look like?

2

Design

I design the interface and user flows. You see how it'll work before any code is written.

3

Build

I build in phases, showing you progress regularly. You can test and give feedback along the way.

4

Test

Thorough testing to catch bugs and edge cases before real users touch it.

5

Launch & handover

We go live. I train you on how to use it and make sure you're confident.

Pricing

Typical range: £3,000 – £10,000+

Web apps vary hugely in complexity. A simple booking system is very different from a full client portal with multiple user types.

I'll give you a detailed quote after we've properly scoped the project. No ballpark figures that double later.

Payment: Usually split into milestones: deposit, mid-project, and final payment on launch.

Common questions

How long does a web app take?

Typically 6–12 weeks depending on complexity. Simple tools can be faster; larger projects take longer. I'll give you a realistic timeline upfront.

What technology do you use?

I typically use React/Next.js for the frontend and modern backend solutions depending on your needs. I'll recommend what makes sense for your project.

Can it integrate with other tools?

Often, yes. I can connect to payment systems, calendars, email services, CRMs, and other APIs. We'll discuss what you need during discovery.

Who owns the code?

You do. Once you've paid in full, the code is yours. You're not locked in to me.

What about ongoing maintenance?

I offer ongoing support packages if you need them. Or you can manage it yourself. I'll make sure you have everything you need.

Can you start with a prototype?

Yes. If you're not sure about the full vision, we can build a minimal version first to test the concept before committing to the full build.
