Maintenance and Improvements
Improving, maintaining and extending existing websites and applications: bug fixes, performance improvements, new features, refactoring and deployment.
Discuss a projectWho it's for
Businesses with a website or application that already works but needs fixing, speeding up or extending, including software built by someone who is no longer available.
What it solves
- The original developer is gone and nobody knows how the system works.
- Pages load slowly or break on phones.
- A new feature is needed, but every change to the existing code feels risky.
What's included
How the process looks
- 01
Initial discussion
A conversation about what you need, what you have, and what is getting in the way.
- 02
Understanding requirements
Before any code is written, I map out the actual requirements and agree on scope.
- 03
Scope and planning
A clear scope with a fixed quote, so you know what is being built and what it costs.
- 04
Design and development
The work is built with regular previews, so you see progress and give feedback as we go.
- 05
Testing and revisions
Everything is tested and revised based on your feedback before launch.
Worth knowing
Work on existing code starts with a short review of how it is built, so the quote reflects its real state. If parts are not worth repairing, I will say so and explain the options.
Discuss a project
Every project starts with a conversation about what you need. If this service sounds like what you're looking for, or you are not sure and want to talk it through, get in touch.
Talk to the person who builds it
Tell me what you need. You speak directly with me, the developer doing the work, and get a clear scope and a fixed quote.
Not an agency. Just two people: me, and my manager for quotes.
