EMERGENCY REPAIR · HIRE A RESCUE

Emergency Website Repair

Site down, hacked, broken after an update, or too slow to use? I diagnose the real failure, quote a fixed rescue, and repair WordPress and self-hosted sites — without pretending closed builders are the same job.

HONEST SCOPE

Built for Sites I Can Actually Fix

WordPress and self-hosted sites are the sweet spot. Closed website builders are a different story — and I'll tell you upfront.

FIT CHECK

Built for Real Small Business Sites

If you need a working WordPress site — not an enterprise committee or a ranking miracle — you're in the right place.

Who this is for

  • Local and regional small businesses with a WordPress or self-hosted site that actually needs to work
  • Contractors, service pros, clinics, and shops losing leads when the site or email breaks
  • Owners of small WooCommerce stores who need checkout and store ops stable — not a marketing agency
  • Teams that want clear pricing, written diagnostics, and honest “I can’t fix that” when the platform blocks it

Who this is not for

  • Enterprise RFPs, multi-vendor SOWs, or IT committees that need six weeks of discovery
  • “Make my site rank #1 on Google” or guaranteed sales / conversion projects
  • Closed builders (Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, etc.) that need deep server-level rescue
  • Free “just take a quick look” requests — new work starts with a paid diagnostic

LEGACY STACK TRIAGE

Abandoned Themes & Plugins

When the vendor stopped updating your theme or plugin, a patch can buy time — it is not always the real fix. Paid diagnostic decides which path.

Pros of stabilizing

  • Faster return to “site works” when a single conflict or PHP error is the bloody edge
  • Lower immediate cost than a full redesign or theme rebuild
  • Keeps familiar layouts and workflows while the business is mid-crisis
  • Buys time to budget a proper theme or plugin migration

Cons & risks

  • No vendor updates — the next WordPress or PHP upgrade can break it again
  • Higher malware and CVE risk on unmaintained plugins
  • Nested child-theme hacks and old/nulled premium themes often fight every fix
  • Repeated emergency patches can cost more than a clean replacement over 6–12 months
  • Some abandoned page builders + dead plugins are not economically repairable

Three honest paths (after diagnostic)

Stabilize

Backup, baseline, conflict isolation, minimal patch or safe pin — then monitor. Right when the business needs the site up now.

Replace

Move to a maintained theme or plugin (or modern block theme), migrate content and critical features with a written plan.

Hybrid

Stabilize now plus a scheduled replacement quote so you are not stuck paying for endless band-aids.

Nulled or pirated premium themes and plugins are out of scope for ongoing care until replaced with licensed copies.

Rescue pricing After repair: Care plans How it works

HOSTING HEALTH CHECK

Your Website May Not Be the Problem. Your Hosting Might Be.

Cheap hosting causes slow load times, downtime, weak support, email issues, and a poor customer experience — even when your website code is fine.

Shared hosting packed with hundreds of sites, inode limits, overloaded servers, and support that takes days to respond — these are hosting emergencies, not WordPress problems. I diagnose both layers and tell you what actually needs to change.

Inode limits on cheap shared hosting can silently break your site when disk usage looks fine. I check hosting health — not just the website code.

REPAIR FAQ

Hiring Emergency Repair

Can you fix my Wix / Squarespace / Shopify / Webflow site? +
Honestly — probably not in the way you need. These platforms lock down backend access, which means I cannot fix server issues, malware at the file level, or deep performance problems. For Shopify I can sometimes help with theme-level issues. For Wix, Squarespace, and Webflow, fixes are very limited. I will tell you upfront instead of taking your money for work I cannot do.
My site is slow — is it WordPress or hosting? +
Often both, but bad hosting is the hidden culprit. Cheap shared hosting causes slow response times, downtime, and email problems even when your site code is fine. I diagnose both layers and tell you what actually needs to change.
What do you need from me to get started? +
Your website URL, hosting login (or provider name), a description of what broke, and how urgent it is. For WordPress sites, wp-admin access helps. I will tell you exactly what I need before any work begins.
Can you fix a theme that isn’t updated anymore? +
Sometimes — for a short-term stabilize so the business is online again. Abandoned themes have no vendor updates, so the next WordPress or PHP upgrade can break them again. After a paid diagnostic I recommend Stabilize, Replace, or Hybrid (patch now + a planned migration). I will not pretend every legacy theme can be saved forever.
Is the diagnostic free? +
No. The $175 rescue diagnostic is paid upfront. It is credited in full toward the repair if you proceed with us. It is not refundable — you are paying for real investigation and a written fix quote, not a sales pitch.
How fast can you fix my site? +
Depends on severity. Diagnostic first, then a realistic timeline in writing. We are not the fastest fix on the internet — we are the accurate one.
