◆ Custom · Bespoke build, quoted to scope

When the standard tiers don't fit the job.

Custom is the Pixel Heaven tier for anything beyond Own Your Area — enterprise builds, multi-location operations, e-commerce, integrations, booking systems, custom apps and full marketing-system rollouts. Every Custom job is scoped, quoted and built to the project. Free 45-minute scoping call before any commitment.

From £1,500 build · Bespoke monthly · POA · 30-day cancellation
When you need Custom

If you've outgrown the fixed tiers, we'll build to scope.

Own Your Area covers 95% of UK small businesses. The 5% who need more usually need one of these.

Custom use case

Multi-location or franchise operations

Multiple branches, each with their own page, local SEO, lead tracking and (sometimes) their own GBP. Roll-out built once, scaled across the estate.

Custom use case

E-commerce & online stores

Stripe checkout, product catalogues, stock management, order workflows. Built lean and fast — no Shopify subscription tax, no plugin sprawl.

Custom use case

Booking & quote-to-cash systems

Online booking, deposit-taking, automated quote PDFs, calendar integrations, email/SMS confirmations, customer accounts. Everything joined up.

Custom use case

Bespoke web apps & internal tools

Client portals, job-tracking apps, staff dashboards, inventory tools. We've already built Ledger — same principles applied to your workflow.

Custom use case

Full marketing-system rollouts

Unlimited pages, monthly ghost-written content, full GBP management, lead-tracking phone line, dedicated WhatsApp support — the full kit, configured to your business.

Custom use case

Integrations & API work

Connect to your CRM, your accounts software, third-party booking platforms, supplier feeds, review aggregators — whatever your operations team actually uses.

Don't see your case here? Send the brief — if it's something I can build well, I'll quote it. If it's not, I'll tell you and point you to someone who can.

What's possible

Hand-coded means no platform ceiling.

Because every Pixel Heaven site is coded from scratch, Custom builds aren't constrained by the limits of WordPress plugins or Shopify themes. The build is whatever the brief says.

Unlimited pages, built as needed

No page-count caps. Service pages, location pages, programmatic SEO templates, bespoke landing pages for paid ads — built when you need them.

Ghost-written content (optional)

If your brief includes ongoing blog content or GBP posts, I draft each piece — SEO-targeted, in your voice. You edit, I publish.

Full Google Business Profile management

Claim, verify, optimise and actively run your GBP (or multiple, for multi-location). Weekly posts, photo uploads, review responses, Q&A moderation.

Lead-tracking phone numbers

Dedicated numbers per campaign, per location or per channel. Every call logged with duration, area code and source page. Reports show which spend produced which calls.

Ledger business dashboard — included

Your private business control panel on your own domain — invoices, expenses, cash flow, aged debtors, UK payroll, reports. See Ledger →

Priority support, configured to you

Same-day response, dedicated WhatsApp line, scoped SLAs — agreed up front and written into the monthly fee. No agency ticket queue.

How a Custom job works

Scoping call → fixed quote → free mockup → build.

No commitment until you've seen both the quote and the mockup. The mockup is free — the quote is bespoke to whatever the brief actually needs.

01

Scoping call

45 minutes on Zoom or WhatsApp. We walk through the business, the brief, the must-haves and the constraints.

02

Fixed quote

Within 48 hours you get a written quote — fixed build fee, fixed monthly, scope agreed in writing.

03

Free mockup

If you approve the quote in principle, I build the homepage as a free mockup. You see the design before paying a penny.

04

Build & launch

Build fee paid on mockup approval. Larger Custom builds typically launch in 2–6 weeks. Monthly rate locks for life from launch day.

Who Custom is for

Custom is for businesses with specific, scoped needs.

It's not the right fit for everyone — most clients are better served by the fixed tiers. Here's when Custom is actually the right call.

Enterprise & larger SMEs

£1M+ revenue, 10+ staff. Need a website and marketing system that matches the size of the business.

Multi-location or multi-brand operations

Several branches, several trading names, or several service areas — each with its own page, SEO and reporting.

E-commerce & product-driven businesses

Selling online, managing stock, processing payments — built lean as a hand-coded site, not bolted onto a SaaS platform.

Brief includes a custom feature

Booking system, quote calculator, members area, client portal, automated PDF, CRM integration. Standard tiers don't cover bespoke features.

Replacing a stack of agency invoices

Currently paying an SEO agency, a content writer, a hosting provider, a developer, a phone-tracking SaaS. Custom replaces the coordination cost.

Owners thinking in 2–5 year timescales

Custom builds compound — SEO content, reviews, GBP authority. Best results show up in year two. If you're hunting instant wins, Get Customers (£250) is the better call.

Not sure if Custom is right? Book a £150 Strategy Audit first — you'll leave that call knowing which tier actually fits.

FAQ

Custom build questions.

Because every Custom job is different. A 30-page multi-location rollout, a Stripe-integrated e-commerce store and a bespoke booking system aren't the same job — pricing them with one number would either overcharge half the clients or underprice the other half. The scoping call lands a fixed written quote within 48 hours; you only commit once you've seen it.
Yes — most Custom clients start on Own Your Area first and step up when the business outgrows it. You pay the difference in build fee plus the new bespoke monthly rate going forward, locked from that date.
If the scoping call reveals the project fits inside Own Your Area (£500) or Get Customers (£250), I'll tell you on the call and quote that tier instead — not Custom. The £1,500 floor exists because below that, the brief almost always fits a fixed tier.
You see the full mockup before paying a penny. If the mockup isn't what you wanted, you walk away. The build fee is only paid once you've approved the mockup and signed off on the written scope.
Depends on scope. A 20-page multi-location site with full content typically launches 2–4 weeks after mockup approval. An e-commerce store with Stripe and stock management is usually 4–6 weeks. Bespoke web apps are quoted with their own timeline. Every quote includes a written delivery date.
No. 30-day written cancellation notice on the monthly fee, any time. The build fee is non-refundable once build has started, but the monthly is rolling. If you leave, you keep the domain (registered in your name from day one) and get the source files within 14 days.
I'll tell you honestly on the scoping call. Some briefs are better served by a specialist developer with industry-specific experience (high-volume marketplaces, complex SaaS, regulated fintech). If Custom isn't the right fit I'll say so and point you to someone who is. The £150 Strategy Audit is the lowest-risk way to find out before committing to a scoping call.
