Website Rescue & Takeover

Developer gone? Locked out?
We'll help you take back control.

We recover access, clean up the mess, review the code you inherited, and put every credential back under your name — then stay to keep it running. Fixed price, agreed before we start.

The problems we take over

These are the most common ways small businesses lose control of their own websites. All of them are fixable.

Developer disappeared

Calls unanswered, emails bounce — and every password lived in their head.

Locked out of your own site

The domain, hosting, or admin login is registered under someone else's name.

Site broken or hacked

Malware warnings, blank pages, spam links, or a layout that fell apart after an update.

Agency holding it hostage

You want to leave, but they say you can't take the website with you.

Nobody knows how it works

The person who built it is long gone and there's no documentation at all.

Paying for a mystery

Monthly 'maintenance' keeps billing, but nothing visibly gets done.

What a rescue includes

Everything it takes to make it yours again

  • Access & account recovery (domain, hosting, WordPress admin)
  • Complete backup before we touch anything
  • Security inspection — malware cleanup where needed
  • Theme, plugin & custom-code review of what you inherited
  • Critical repairs so the site works again
  • Performance pass (speed, updates, PHP)
  • Ownership review: everything re-registered under YOUR accounts
  • Credential documentation — a handover file that outlives any developer
  • Migration to hosting you own, if needed
  • 30 days of care included while things settle

Questions

Rescue FAQ

My developer disappeared and I have no logins. Can you still help?+

Usually, yes. If the domain or hosting was registered in your business's name (or paid from your card), there is almost always a legitimate recovery path through the registrar or host. We map what exists, recover what's recoverable, and document every credential in your name as we go.

Will you bad-mouth or fight with my old developer or agency?+

No. We don't need to contact them in most cases, and when we do it stays professional. Our job is your access, your backup, and your working site — not a dispute.

What if my site was built on a page builder or an old theme?+

We take it over as-is first — working and safe beats perfect. If the build is fragile, we'll tell you plainly what a rebuild would cost and why (or why you don't need one). No scare tactics.

What do I get at the end of a rescue?+

A working site, a full backup, every credential documented under your accounts, a security cleanup, a plain-English report of what we found and fixed, and 30 days of care included while things settle.

How fast can you start?+

Rescues jump the queue. Book a triage call and we'll tell you the same day what we can do and what it costs — the price is fixed and agreed before any work starts.
