Why the name?
“Dreckly” is Cornish for “sometime, when I get round to it”. It’s a nod to home and a promise: the only thing dreckly about us is the name. We agree target dates in your scope, counted from your agreed start date with essential input ready.
Why no quotes on most packages?
Cove, Harbour, Headland and Atlantic are fixed: what's included is listed, and add-ons are priced up front. Cove has no care plan — after launch, the site is yours, and later changes are £35 an hour. If you need something bigger — member logins, an app, a custom shop — that's Custom, quoted from £3,500. Once the quote is agreed, you still know the total before we start — no surprises, not dreckly.
Which areas do you cover?
Anywhere in the UK, Cornwall first. Based in Redruth, and happy to work with you wherever you are.
How do I get in touch?
Send the contact form — add a message, or a number if you'd like a call back. We'll get back to you usually the same day. No meetings to book.
How fast is "fast"?
Cove normally takes 3 to 5 calendar days, Harbour around 1–2 calendar weeks, Headland 2–3 and Atlantic 3–4, measured from your agreed start date with the cleared advance and identified essential input ready. Your scope records actual target dates and any essential deadline in calendar days. Consumer work waits until the cancellation period expires unless separately requested early in writing. Missing input is discussed fairly; there is no inactivity or restart penalty. Timing and dependencies.
Do I need to write the content?
We'll help. You'll get a content checklist at the start. Send rough notes and we'll shape them into clear copy that works for search. We go at a fair pace and keep weekly updates. If essential input is missing, we discuss the schedule and follow the fair reminder and final-notice process in the terms; there is no inactivity fee.
Can I use my own photos?
Yes. Using your own photos costs nothing extra. On Harbour, Headland, Atlantic and Custom, the site includes a simple way to upload them, for example from your phone, and to add a description or caption to each one. You'll be able to add a description or caption for each photo. We use that to help write purpose-appropriate alternative text; it is not copied automatically where that would be unhelpful, and decorative images may need empty alt text. We agree and test the accessible implementation. If you'd like an editor to crop and arrange photos, or a choice of how they're shown, that's the Photo editor & display styling add-on, at £125 — captions inform the alt text there too, and are not copied automatically. That add-on is not available on Cove. A Cove site is one page with up to 5 photos you supply, which we add during the build; we write purpose-appropriate alt text for each image in the same way. Changing photos after launch is £35 an hour, the same as any other change. The photography add-on is only if you'd like us to come out and take the pictures, at £150 a half-day.
How many changes can I make before launch?
Cove includes one round of changes before launch. Harbour, Headland, Atlantic and Custom include two. Further discretionary changes are £35 an hour or a separately agreed add-on price, with your written scope/price/time approval first. Correcting our errors or delivering the agreed scope/statutory remedies is not an extra and uses no change round.
Can I update it myself?
On Harbour, Headland, Atlantic and Custom, yes — you'll be able to upload your own photos, with a caption for each, for example from your phone, and we'll send a clear handover for other edits. Or we can handle changes on a care plan. Cove is handed over to you at launch; changing photos or anything else later is £35 an hour.
Do you sort hosting and domains?
Cove uses your own free Cloudflare Pages account with launch handover and no care plan. Harbour and above use our Cloudflare account with agreed hosting, SSL and backups under care: three months minimum, then rolling monthly, with 30 calendar days’ written ordinary notice from either side and fair daily part-month charges/refunds. Domain registration and renewal fees are not included in build or care prices: the domain stays in your name, we manage it, and you pay separately authorised actual registrar costs. Included access/handover is protected; optional extra migration tasks at £35 must be agreed, not imposed as an exit penalty. An agreed Harbour-or-above move to your own account ends hosting and care on the agreed date, with the approved fair settlement if that applies. See care, fair early settlement and handover terms.
