I work with what you’ve got.
Already on Elementor, Divi, Bricks or blocks? You don’t need a rebuild, you need someone who knows your builder. I’m a WordPress developer here in Norwich, and I spent three years working with the Elementor team.
No, you don’t have to start again.
If you’re stuck on one thing, the sensible answer is to fix that one thing.
The usual advice, when you ask a developer for help with a page builder site, is that the builder is the problem and you should pay for a fresh build. Sometimes that’s even true. Usually it isn’t, and it’s just a bigger invoice.
If your site works and you like it, I’ll tell you honestly if it really is past helping, but I’m not going to open with it.
I’ve worked on the inside
If you’ve ever followed an Elementor guide to get yourself unstuck, there’s a decent chance you were reading something of mine.
For three years I worked with Elementor, first as their community content manager, then contracting for a year writing the material that teaches people to use the software. So I know why it does what it does, not just how to work around it. It’s the same with Divi, Bricks and the block editor: I build with all of them.
The builders I know.
One-off when something’s broken, or ongoing if you’d like someone on the end of an email.
-
Elementor and Elementor Pro
Broken layouts, mobile spacing, slow pages, theme builder templates, forms and popups.
-
Divi
Layouts that fall apart on a phone, heavy pages, the Theme Builder and global modules.
-
Bricks
Custom queries, dynamic data, templates, and getting the most from its speed.
-
The block editor
Custom blocks and patterns, block themes, and moving off an old builder.
Fixes, builds and rescues.
- The layout that won’t behave, or falls apart on a phone.
- New pages and sections built inside the builder you already have, so your team can still edit them.
- Speed. Builder sites get heavy, and most of the weight is removable: unused widgets, oversized images and too many fonts.
- Cleaning up a site half-built by someone else, or by three someone elses.
- Updates that broke something. A builder update and a theme that don’t agree, or a plugin that clashes.
- Showing you how to do it yourself, if that’s what you’d rather.
What it costs.
From £50 an hour on a care plan, £60 an hour otherwise. Small fixes are often quick, and bigger jobs, like new pages or a speed overhaul, get a fixed price up front.
If something is broken right now, website rescue starts from £100 plus VAT. If you’d like someone on hand every month, a care plan includes my time for small changes, from £95 a month plus VAT.
Local, and easy to reach.
I’m in Norwich, and I’ve been building WordPress sites for businesses across Norfolk since 2005. You deal with me directly, by email, on a call, or over a coffee if you’re local. Most of the work is done remotely, so I help businesses across the UK as well.
Questions people ask.
Do I need to rebuild my site to fix it?
Almost never. Most page builder problems are one or two specific things. I’ll fix those and tell you honestly if anything bigger is going on.
Can you make my Elementor site faster?
Usually, yes, and often by a lot. Most of the weight on a builder site comes from things you can safely remove or optimise.
Will my team still be able to edit the site?
Yes. Everything I build stays inside your builder, so your team can keep editing it the way they’re used to.
Should I switch from Divi or Elementor to something else?
Only if there’s a real reason. Switching builders means rebuilding every page. If your current builder does the job, I’ll help you get more out of it.
Do you work with agencies?
Yes, I do a lot of builder work white-labelled for agencies. There’s a page for that.
Can you train my team?
Yes. I can show you how to make changes yourself, one-to-one over a call or as recorded videos for your own site.
What’s the builder doing to you?
Send me the address and tell me what won’t behave. If it’s a ten minute fix, I’ll usually just tell you how to do it.
