Website repair, modernisation and migration
Website repair and modernisation without starting from scratch
Website repair starts with a diagnosis, not a rebuild. We fix errors after updates, restore broken forms, speed up slow websites and move sites to another server without losing Google rankings. When the foundation is good, modernisation is cheaper and faster than a new website.
The problem
The website stopped working the way it should
After an update you get a white screen, the contact form stops sending messages, emails land in spam or the site takes several seconds to load on a phone. Every day in that state means enquiries that never arrived.
The worst thing to do then is to make chaotic changes in production. First we stop further changes, make a backup, read the logs and find the cause. Only then do we fix, test the functions and decide whether a repair is enough or a modernisation or rebuild is needed.

Symptoms clients come to us with
- A white screen or error 500 after a plugin or PHP update.
- Customers say they sent the form, but nothing reached the inbox.
- The SSL certificate expired and the browser warns visitors.
- After moving to new hosting, pages disappeared from Google.
What we fix
Repair and modernisation: scope
Error after a website update
PHP and plugin compatibility, maintenance mode, rollback and function tests.
Contact form not sending
Send tests, sender configuration, logs, protection and a copy of each request, also in WordPress.
Emails landing in spam
Checking the mail domain configuration (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and the form sender.
Slow website
Images, scripts, caching, hosting and Core Web Vitals. Finding the cause instead of guessing.
Website modernisation
Mobile version, structure, content, analytics and contact points on the existing foundation.
Migration to another server
Moving the site, a 301 redirect map, URL tests and sitemap submission in Google.
How we work
Safe repair in four steps
- 01
Stop and back up
No further changes in production. Files and database backed up before any repair.
- 02
Diagnosis
Logs, configuration, versions, hosting. We find the cause, not just the symptom.
- 03
Fix and test
The smallest change that removes the cause, and tests of forms, payments and sending.
- 04
Safeguards
Monitoring, backups and an update plan so the problem does not return.
When repair is not enough
- When the site architecture blocks growth, we say honestly that a new website is needed.
- When hosting does not meet requirements, we show what to change.
- We make no changes without a backup and a way back.

FAQ
Website repair: frequently asked questions
How much does website repair cost?
It depends on the cause and the state of the site. After diagnosis we give the scope and price of the repair before work starts. The free online audit shows many problems immediately.
How much does a website rebuild cost?
A rebuild costs more than modernisation, so we first check whether the current foundation can be kept. We give the price after the audit, split into stages.
What should I do when a WordPress form does not send emails?
First check whether the message lands in spam and whether the form sends from an address in your domain. Then check sending logs and SMTP configuration. Details are in the contact form guide.
Will migrating to another server lower my Google rankings?
With a correct 301 redirect map, URLs kept where possible and the sitemap submitted, the risk is small. Short fluctuations are normal.
Why do emails from my domain go to spam?
Most often SPF, DKIM or DMARC is missing or wrong, or the form sends from a server the domain does not allow. You can check MX, SPF and DMARC records first in the free Mail Domain Doctor.
Will you repair a website you did not build?
Yes. Most repairs concern websites built by others. We start with a backup and diagnosis so we do not make things worse.
What if I have lost contact with the previous developer?
Access to the hosting and the domain is enough. If you do not have it, we first help you recover access from the hosting provider or domain registrar, and only then diagnose the website itself.
Will the website be offline during the repair?
We test changes on a copy and apply them to the live site in an agreed time window. Before bigger work we back up files and the database so we can roll back if something goes wrong.

Where we work
We carry out most repairs remotely once access is shared, regardless of the city, so we help companies across Poland. In the Kuyavian-Pomeranian region, e.g. Toruń, Bydgoszcz or Włocławek, we come on site when the problem involves office hardware or the network.
Website not working as it should?
Describe the symptom and when it started. We begin with a backup and diagnosis, not a rebuild.
