Website design & development for SMEs

Boutique UK-based remote studio—w/ a Northern-style direct, calm, no jargon approach.

Honest reviews from clients we’ve definitely not bribed.

“André and Riyad’s attention to detail is phenomenal, with clear, honest communication. They’re patient, never dismissive, and always offer thoughtful solutions. What seems overwhelming became straightforward, and the final results far exceeded our expectations. If you want your website done right, Stomm is the answer – we can’t recommend them more highly!”

Steve Fridlington

“If you’re looking for a small, friendly, easy to work with website development company then you won’t go far wrong with Stomm. A refreshing change from the majority of web developers and absolutely fantastic value. André, Riyad and co left no stone unturned in listening to us and then delivering the site we wanted….and more! They also brought in specialist brand advice and true to form they were superb too. They care deeply about what they do and listening to the customer, I look forward to continuing our association with Stomm for many years to come.”

“Working with [André & team] is a breath of fresh air. In the complex world of website building, monitoring and optimization – he and the team have the incredible ability to take a concept that lives in my brain to optimal output by asking the right questions on what we are trying to achieve.”

Laura Wheeler

@RVNU

“Since 2021, André and Riyad have been my preferred team to pull in on client WordPress builds. They make my life easier: stuff gets done on time and they don’t miss the devil in the details (or underestimate the wider mess of linking website data to a marketing tech stack). Cheers fellas for also developing my site.”

“André, Riyad, and the team at Stomm are my go-to developers. We recently worked together on a website rebuild where they carefully untangled a complex setup, carried over the key elements, and delivered a site that’s well-designed, functional, and built to last—all while maintaining the integrity of the brand. This is one of many projects I’ve worked on with them now, and they never disappoint.”

@Fortitude Marketing

“The team at Stomm are an absolute pleasure to work with! Their professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail are second to none. Every project is delivered exactly as promised—if not exceeding expectations. They truly go above and beyond to ensure the end result is perfect. Highly recommended!”

Hi, I’m André!

If we work together, I’ll be who you talk to. Two decades of experience in web and IT have taught me that meeting deadlines and a lack of surprises matter just as much as the quality of the work.

You’ll also likely meet my colleague Riyad and a few other collaborators, depending on the project phase.

Please take your time and browse around, and get in touch if you have any questions.

Some of our finest work (that we remembered to screenshot and write about):

Each project comes with a quick rundown of its key features. If some of it sounds like wizardry—don’t worry, that part’s for the techies. We’re also working on a jargon-buster behind the scenes to break down these terms.

What can we help with:

Tell us what you want us to do

A: Design + Develop
Logo, designs, and wording – we handle things from end-to-end.

From working out what’s best for your business and its customers, to designing the wireframes and customising your site to make sure everything clicks.

B: Build it to your design
You’ve already got the wireframes, the brand guidelines and the content. Excellent!

We’ll turn them into a custom website with the kind of attention you’d expect from a company that really, really cares about getting things right.

Tell us what you want us to do

A: Design and build it
A lot goes into a fully customised e-commerce site. Branding. Shipping methods. Payment schemes. Buying processes. VAT receipts. Luckily, we can help you with every part of the organisation, planning and delivery.

B: Build it to your design
Bring us your wireframes. Your branding guide. Your content. We’ll make your new site look and function exactly how you’d hoped. But we won’t just test the build. We’ll also test your assumptions. So the sales start flowing from the moment it launches.

Tell us what you want us to do

A: CONSULTATION
Need expert guidance? Whether you’re refining your strategy, exploring new features, or planning future growth, we’ll help you make the right decisions.

B: MAINTENANCE
Keeping your site secure, up-to-date, and running smoothly. From software updates to bug fixes, we handle the technical side so you don’t have to.

C: HOSTING
Fast, reliable, and scalable hosting tailored to your needs. Whether it’s a small business site or a high-traffic eCommerce store, we ensure speed, security, and uptime.

D: MAINTENANCE & HOSTING
The complete package - secure hosting with ongoing maintenance to keep everything optimised, protected, and performing at its best.

Let us know your ballpark budget:

Let us know your ballpark budget

A: £3K – £5K
Fully customised. Bespoke functionality. Exceptional usability. Exactly what we love to do.

For example, a studio-quality website with unique layouts for each key page, tailored branding, custom contact forms, and enhanced functionality - delivering a polished, high-performance site that stands out and engages your audience.

B: £5K - £20K+
Bigger projects. Big ambitions. Big ideas. For when the customisation starts to get serious.

This level of build comes with added complexity - whether it’s a custom integration with another service, advanced functionality beyond the standard, or a large-scale site with multiple sections. It’s also perfect if you’re launching with a full marketing and SEO strategy in mind, ensuring everything is optimised from day one.

Let us know your ballpark budget

A: £5K - £10K
Ideal for a small shop with a modest product range. Far more flexibility and functionality than Shopify and far cheaper in the long run.

B: £10K – £25K
For when it’s time to scale. More products. Bespoke functionality. The sweet spot for ecommerce success.

C: £25K+
Wholesale and customer level pricing, distributor networks, flexible shipping behaviour, multi-thousand product management and stock control. Customisation that conquers the really big ecommerce challenges.
