What's not included
Maintenance is not ongoing development
We keep the boundaries clear so you know what is covered and what needs a separate quote.
Major changes or development
New pages, redesigns, integrations, custom development and new features are quoted separately.
Pre-existing issues
If a site is already broken, hacked or unstable, a one-off cleanup may be needed before maintenance starts.
Third-party problems
We can help diagnose issues, but we cannot control external services, APIs, mail systems or abandoned plugins.

Frequently asked questions
A content change is a small, reasonable update to existing pages. This includes text updates, replacing images, minor layout tweaks and adjusting content within an existing page. It does not include full page builds, redesigns or new functionality.
If an update causes an issue, we will roll it back and restore from backup where needed. This is why managed updates and backups are part of the maintenance plans.
If a site is already compromised, we will assess it first. In most cases, a one-off cleanup is required before the site can go onto a maintenance plan.

Yes, but non-WordPress websites do not fit into fixed maintenance plans. Custom sites, static sites and web applications are assessed individually and quoted based on complexity.
Absolutely. You can move between plans as your needs change.
No problem. We will let you know upfront and quote any additional work separately. No surprise invoices.
