The timeline varies based on project complexity and specific requirements. A standard business website with 5-8 pages typically takes 3-4 weeks from initial consultation to launch. This includes planning, design approval, development, content integration, and testing phases.

More complex projects with custom functionality, e-commerce features, or extensive content management systems may require 6-12 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline during the initial consultation, breaking down each phase with specific milestones. Rush projects can be accommodated with adjusted scheduling, though we recommend allowing adequate time for thorough testing and refinement.

Pricing depends on the scope, features, and technical requirements of your project. A basic informational website starts from £1,500-£3,000, while business websites with custom design and enhanced functionality range from £3,000-£8,000. E-commerce platforms and complex web applications begin at £8,000 and scale based on specific needs.

We offer transparent pricing with detailed quotes that outline all included services: design, development, content integration, basic SEO setup, and initial training. Additional costs may include premium plugins, ongoing maintenance packages, or advanced integrations. During our consultation, we discuss your budget and recommend solutions that deliver the best value for your investment.

Absolutely. Every website we build is fully responsive, meaning it automatically adapts to different screen sizes and devices. With over 60% of web traffic coming from mobile devices, responsive design is not optional—it's essential for reaching your audience effectively.

We test all websites across multiple devices including smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers, ensuring consistent functionality and appearance. Our responsive approach includes optimized touch navigation, readable text without zooming, and fast loading times on mobile networks. This mobile-first strategy also benefits your search engine rankings, as Google prioritizes mobile-friendly websites in search results.

Yes, we build websites with user-friendly content management systems that allow you to make updates without technical knowledge. Most of our projects use WordPress or similar platforms with intuitive interfaces for editing text, uploading images, and managing pages.

After launch, we provide comprehensive training sessions (typically 1-2 hours) covering all essential functions: creating and editing pages, managing media, updating menus, and basic troubleshooting. We also supply written documentation and video tutorials for future reference. For clients who prefer not to handle updates themselves, we offer maintenance packages where our team manages content changes, plugin updates, and technical maintenance on your behalf.

We can arrange both hosting and domain registration as part of our service, though you retain full ownership and control. We work with reliable UK-based hosting providers offering 99.9% uptime guarantees, daily backups, and robust security features. Hosting costs typically range from £8-£25 per month depending on your website's requirements.

For domain registration, we assist in selecting and securing your preferred domain name (usually £10-£15 annually for .co.uk or .com domains). Alternatively, if you already have hosting or a domain, we can work with your existing providers. We handle all technical setup including DNS configuration, SSL certificate installation, and email account creation, ensuring everything works seamlessly from day one.

Every website we develop includes fundamental SEO setup as standard. This covers technical optimization: clean code structure, fast loading speeds, mobile responsiveness, proper heading hierarchy, meta tags, XML sitemaps, and schema markup. We also implement basic on-page SEO including keyword-optimized content, descriptive URLs, and image alt text.

However, achieving high search rankings requires ongoing effort beyond initial setup. We offer additional SEO packages that include keyword research, content strategy, link building, and monthly performance monitoring. For businesses in competitive markets like London, Manchester, or Birmingham, we recommend combining technical optimization with a sustained content and outreach strategy to achieve meaningful visibility in search results.

All websites include a 30-day warranty period after launch, during which we fix any bugs or technical issues at no additional charge. This covers functionality problems, display errors, or issues arising from the initial development—not changes to requirements or new feature requests.

After the warranty period, we offer flexible support options. Many clients choose our maintenance packages (from £50/month) which include regular updates, security monitoring, backups, and priority support for any issues. Alternatively, we provide ad-hoc support on an hourly basis (£65/hour) for occasional fixes or updates. We respond to urgent issues within 24 hours and typically resolve most problems within 48 hours, ensuring your website remains functional and secure.

Yes, we regularly work with businesses looking to refresh outdated websites or improve underperforming ones. Our redesign process begins with analyzing your current site: identifying what works, what doesn't, and opportunities for improvement. We review analytics data, user behavior, and conversion rates to inform our recommendations.

Depending on your needs, we can perform a complete rebuild with modern design and technology, or update the existing framework with visual improvements and enhanced functionality. We preserve valuable elements like search rankings and existing content while addressing technical debt, improving user experience, and aligning the design with current brand standards. Redesign projects typically take 4-8 weeks and include migration of existing content, URL redirects to maintain SEO value, and thorough testing before launch.

To begin, we need a clear understanding of your business goals, target audience, and website objectives. During our initial consultation, we discuss your industry, competitors, desired features, and any specific design preferences or examples you like. Information about your brand identity (logos, colors, fonts) helps maintain consistency.

For content, we need text for main pages, images, and any specific functionality requirements (contact forms, booking systems, e-commerce features). If you have existing marketing materials, brochures, or a current website, these provide useful reference points. Don't worry if you don't have everything ready—we can guide you through content creation and provide copywriting services if needed. The key is starting with a clear vision of what you want to achieve, and we'll help structure the details from there.

Building Digital Solutions Since 2015

Cleanpowerworks started as a small development studio in London with three programmers and one shared vision: create websites that work seamlessly across all devices and deliver measurable results for businesses.

Development team workspace

Our studio emerged from a simple observation: many businesses struggled with websites that looked outdated, loaded slowly, or failed to convert visitors into customers. We decided to focus on solving these specific problems rather than chasing trends.

Today, our team consists of 12 specialists covering front-end development, back-end architecture, UI design, and project management. Each member brings between 4 and 11 years of commercial experience. We work from our office at 27 Parkfield Street in London, where we handle projects ranging from small business websites to complex web applications.

What Drives Our Work

We build websites that serve their purpose efficiently. This means clean code, fast loading times, and interfaces that people can navigate without confusion. Our approach centers on understanding what each business actually needs rather than applying generic solutions.

Team collaboration session

Technical Foundation

We work with established technologies: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript frameworks including React and Vue.js, PHP with Laravel, and Python with Django. Our hosting infrastructure runs on AWS and DigitalOcean, providing 99.9% uptime backed by service agreements.

Every project includes responsive design tested on actual devices, not just emulators. We optimize images, minify code, and implement caching strategies that reduce page load times to under 2 seconds on standard broadband connections.

Our Mission

Deliver functional websites that help businesses operate more efficiently online. We measure success by client retention rate (currently 73% return for additional projects) and site performance metrics rather than awards or subjective criteria.

Core Principles

Transparent Communication

Weekly progress reports with actual screenshots and staging links. No technical jargon unless requested. Clear explanations of what works, what doesn't, and why.

Deadline Adherence

Project timelines with built-in buffer periods. We've delivered 94% of projects within the agreed timeframe over the past three years.

Code Quality

All code reviewed by senior developers before deployment. Documentation included for every custom feature. Security audits using OWASP standards.

Ongoing Support

Three months of included maintenance after launch. Response time under 4 hours for critical issues. Extended support packages available with defined service levels.
