Web application development

Software shaped around how you work.

Custom web applications for UK businesses — client portals, internal tools, booking and quoting systems, dashboards. We build around the process you already have rather than bending your business to fit someone else's software, and the code is yours at the end.

  • 01Stop paying per seat for software that half fits
  • 02One system instead of six spreadsheets
  • 03Code and data you own outright

Happy clients include Heathrow Printers, KAM Freights, RPS Bullion and Unison Investments — plus a few more.

The short answer

A custom web application in the UK typically costs £4,000 to £15,000 for an internal tool, client portal or dashboard, driven mainly by how many other systems it has to integrate with rather than by how many screens it has. A focused build takes 4 to 8 weeks from discovery to live, scoped and quoted fixed-fee before any money changes hands, and you receive the source code, documentation and deployment setup. After launch, ongoing support runs from £199 a month for monitoring, bug fixes and small changes up to £999 a month for a formal SLA.

We replace the spreadsheet, not your way of working.

Most businesses run on a spreadsheet, an inbox and one person who remembers how it all fits together. We map that honestly first, then build the version of it that does not fall over when that person is on holiday.

It connects to what you already pay for — accounting, CRM, payments, calendars — rather than asking you to abandon it. You get the source code, the documentation and the deployment setup, so you are never locked to us.

You see a clickable prototype before anyone writes production code. It is far cheaper to change your mind about a screen than about a database, and this is the stage where that happens.

What you get

Scoped and quoted fixed-fee after a discovery session. Most internal tools and portals land between £4,000 and £15,000 depending on how much they have to talk to.

After launch

After launch, someone has to own it.

An application is not finished when it ships — it has dependencies that go stale, a certificate that expires, and a queue of small changes that appears the week people start using it in anger. Rather than leave that as an awkward conversation later, it is priced up front: Webapp Care at £199 a month for monitoring, bug fixes and small changes with a next-business-day response, Webapp Care+ at £499 to add development time and a same-day response, and a Priority SLA at £999 with a committed response time and a priority queue. Rolling monthly, and you keep the code either way.

Common questions

Clear scope. Clear process.

How much does a custom web application cost in the UK?

Most internal tools, portals and dashboards land between £4,000 and £15,000, driven mainly by how many other systems they have to integrate with rather than by screen count. We scope it in a discovery session and quote fixed-fee, so you see the number before committing to the build.

Should we buy off-the-shelf software instead?

Often yes, and we will say so. If a £30-a-month product does 90% of the job, buy it. Custom earns its place when the mismatch costs you real hours every week, when per-seat licensing has outgrown a one-off build, or when the process is the thing you actually compete on.

How long does a web app take to build?

A focused internal tool is typically 4 to 8 weeks from discovery to live. Bigger platforms get phased so something useful ships early rather than everything landing at the end. You get a dated plan before any money changes hands.

Can it connect to the systems we already use?

Yes — accounting, CRM, payments, calendars, email and most things with an API. Integration is usually the part that decides the price, so we work it out during discovery rather than discovering it halfway through.

Who owns the code and the data?

You do, both. Full source code, documentation and deployment setup are handed over, and the data lives in a database you control. You can take it in-house or to another team whenever you want.
