Web design in York

I help with new website builds, rebuilds & redesigns, accessibility improvements in York and nearby.

York projects often suit a calmer, more polished feel, without turning the site into a slow showpiece.

A typical project in York: A polished brochure site for a specialist service, built to be accessible, fast, and easy to trust.

What I can help with

• New website builds

  Bespoke, lightweight sites built properly from the start.

  • Design + build with accessibility baked in
  • Fast-loading by default (not as an afterthought)
  • Flexible structure that’s easy to grow later

• Rebuilds & redesigns

  Keep what’s worth keeping, fix what isn’t, and make the whole thing behave.

  • Cleaner structure and upgraded UI
  • Better performance and mobile usability
  • Less friction, fewer weird surprises

• Accessibility improvements

  Make pages more usable for everyone, and less risky legally.

  • Keyboard and screen reader basics done properly
  • Better contrast, focus states, and form usability
  • Practical fixes, not vague advice

Typical problems I fix

• Slow loads (especially on mobile).
• Layouts that break, jump around, or feel awkward to use.
• Accessibility issues that block real people from using the site.
• Messy content, confusing navigation, or pages that say a lot without saying anything.
• Sites that are hard to update without breaking something.

How it works

1. Quick discovery: what you do, who it’s for, what “good” looks like.
2. Plan: pages, content, priorities, and a sensible scope.
3. Build: clean HTML/CSS, progressive enhancement, and performance budgets.
4. Checks: accessibility, responsiveness, speed, and content sanity.
5. Launch: tidy handover, and optional ongoing support.

What you get (without the faff)

• Bespoke build, no page builders
• Progressive enhancement (works without JS, then upgrades nicely)
• Clear handover and maintainable codebase
• Accessibility-minded: keyboard, semantics, readable UI, real testing

Rough pricing

If you want a rough estimate, most projects land in one of these:

• Kickstart: £99 setup + £69/month (24 months) or £89/month (12 months)
• Support Scheme: from £600 + £25/month
• Straight-up Build: from £1,200

Bigger builds (more pages, custom features, heavier content) are priced after we’ve scoped what you actually need.

FAQs

Can we do this remotely?

Yes. Most work is done remotely and it works brilliantly. If you’re local, meeting up is optional, not mandatory.

Do you use templates or page builders?

No. I build bespoke sites with proper foundations, then keep them maintainable and easy to extend.

Can you improve an existing site instead of rebuilding?

Often, yes. If the foundations are decent, we can improve speed, accessibility and content without starting from scratch.
