For UK businesses

A British web developer, without the UK agency mark-up

I'm Wayne. I build websites, online shops and bespoke tools for businesses across the UK, from Spain, one hour ahead of you. Same standard of work, same language, no account manager in the middle. Roughly half my clients are already British.

  • Same working daySpain is one hour ahead of the UK. A message at 9am your time reaches me at 10am, not overnight.
  • British, English-nativeNo translation layer, no offshore agency account manager between you and the person building it.
  • Roughly half UK clientsMost of my work is already for businesses in the UK. This isn't a new market for me.
  • Fixed quotesOne number in writing before anything starts, the same as for my Spanish clients.

Why this works

Distance is not the problem people expect it to be

What goes wrong with web projects is almost never geography. It's a developer who stops replying, a quote that grows, or a site handed over that you can't edit. Those happen just as easily in Manchester as in Madrid.

One hour, not one continent

Spain is CET, an hour ahead of UK time. Your morning is my morning. There's no overnight gap waiting on a reply, which is the real problem with properly offshore development.

You deal with the person building it

No account manager relaying your requirements to somebody you never speak to. When you explain what you need, you're explaining it to the person who writes the code.

You own the result outright

Every login handed over, hosting in your name if you want it, and a site you can edit yourself. No proprietary platform you can't leave, and no hostage situation if you later want somebody else.

How it runs

From first call to live site

The practical details, including invoicing, VAT, payments and what happens when something breaks, are all on the how it works page.

  1. A call, at a time that suits you

    Twenty minutes, free. UK hours are my hours give or take an hour, so booking isn't the awkward part.

  2. A fixed quote in writing

    One number covering the whole job, in euros, with the scope written down. It doesn't move unless you change the scope.

  3. Build, with the site on a live link

    You watch it come together and comment as it goes. Feedback is expected, not billed as a change request.

  4. Launch and handover

    I handle the technical side, then show you how to run it and hand over every login. The site is yours outright.

Services

What I can do for a UK business

The same services as for my Spanish clients, delivered remotely. None of it needs anyone to be in the same room.

Inherited a site from a developer who has gone quiet?That is a large part of what I do.

Trustpilot

What clients say about working with Wayne

Every review below is verified on Trustpilot. All of them are five stars.

After a series of bad experiences with other web developers, working with Wayne was a breath of fresh air. He is very responsive and completes work to a high standard. I would not hesitate to recommend SourceCode to anyone.

Abbie WartonVerified client, UK

Wayne is my go-to developer. He is a genius with coding and everything technical. He will always find a way to make everything work seamlessly, no matter how complicated the request. We have worked together on multiple projects over the years.

Rose LenihanMultiple projects together

Wayne built new websites for me after my old ones had been compromised, and worked around my budget. He was always available to take my calls, and the after-sales support has been incredible.

FAQs

What UK clients ask before getting in touch

If yours is not here, ask it on the call. You will get a straight answer, including when the answer is no.

5 questions

01How do I know you will still be there in six months?

Fair question, and the answer is that you check. There are public Trustpilot reviews going back years, client sites you can open right now, and two SaaS products of my own that aren't going anywhere. I hand over every login at the end of a build too, so if I did vanish you'd still own the lot.

02What if something breaks and you're in another country?

Being in Spain makes no practical difference. I'm one hour ahead of you and reachable on WhatsApp, email or a call. Every site I look after is monitored 24/7, so I usually know before you do. A developer forty minutes down the M1 who doesn't answer their phone is worse than one in Calpe who does.

03Is this just cheaper because it's offshore?

It's cheaper because there's no agency around me. No account manager, no sales team, no city-centre office with a rent to cover. You pay for the person doing the work instead of the four people sitting between you and them. The work itself is to the same standard you'd get from a good UK agency.

04Do we ever need to meet in person?

Almost never, and I'd say the same about a developer in the next county. Everything runs on calls, screen-shares and messages. If you do want to meet, I'm in the UK periodically and it can usually be arranged.

05Can you work with our existing hosting and domain?

Yes. UK hosting, UK domain registrars, whatever you already have. I work with it instead of insisting you move. If your current setup is holding the site back I'll say so and explain why, but the decision stays yours.
