For sites already in production
Maintenance Retainers
A monthly retainer that keeps a live site healthy: priority response, security patches, monitoring, and a steady backlog worked through each month.
A launched site isn’t a finished site. Dependencies age, security advisories land, small things break, and the little improvements that would help never quite become anyone’s job, until something goes down and it’s suddenly everyone’s job, at the worst possible time.
A retainer turns that from a fire drill into a routine. Someone who knows the codebase keeps it patched, watched, and quietly improving, and picks up the phone when it matters, for a predictable monthly number you can plan around.
WHAT’Sincluded
Priority response
When something breaks, you’re at the front of the queue, not waiting behind a new project.
Dependency updates
Packages and frameworks kept current, so you never face a two-year upgrade cliff.
Security patches
Advisories tracked and patched promptly, before they become someone else’s way in.
Monitoring & uptime
Uptime and errors watched, so we usually know about a problem before you do.
A backlog, worked down
A running list of small features and fixes, chipped away at every month.
A short monthly report
One page: what we did, what we watched, and what we’d suggest doing next.
HOWit works
Onboard
We map the site, the infrastructure, and the risks, and agree what the retainer covers, in writing.
Watch
Monitoring goes on from day one, so problems surface as alerts rather than as angry emails.
Maintain
Each month: patches applied, dependencies updated, and the backlog moved forward a few items.
Report
A short monthly summary of what changed, what we watched, and what we’d do next. No mystery invoices.
I have worked with Neelesh for over a year now and can honestly say he makes my life as a project manager so much easier. He has stepped in to support us a number of times when internal resource is low and the timeline is tight. The enthusiasm and experience he brings to these occasions is very reassuring to me and the rest of the team. I don't know what we would do without him!

COMMONquestions
From £750/month, scaled to the size of the site and how much monthly time you need. We agree the number in writing up front and review it together as your needs change, never quietly, never mid-invoice.
