Web design and development in Surbiton

Possibly, and the first step is to tell us which booking service your Surbiton practice uses and what customers need to be able to do. A link from the website to your booking page may be enough. Customers can read about the service, check the price and move straight to booking. Connecting the booking service more closely to the site depends on what the provider supports and what your subscription allows. We check the provider’s documentation and your account access before confirming the approach, and the result is written into the scope so you know what is included. If the provider does not support a closer connection, we will say so at that stage and not after the build has started. Either way, the service descriptions, pricing and contact details on the site are organised so a visitor can decide what to ask about before reaching the booking step.

Yes, a website form can accept enquiries while your Surbiton practice is closed. A form does not keep opening hours, so a customer can send a message in the evening or at the weekend and it will be waiting for you. We agree with you where those messages go, such as a shared inbox or an existing system, and what confirmation the visitor receives after sending. The form asks for the details you need in order to respond, so your first reply can be a useful one. If enquiries need to reach other software you already use, we check that connection before confirming it. One point is yours to decide. Any reply time published on the site should reflect your own availability, so set it at a level the practice can meet. The website can also explain when you are open and point visitors to your booking service.

Yes, someone non-technical can manage a Surbiton business website we build. We plan the editing around the tasks that person will carry out, such as changing a service description, updating opening hours or adding a price. Those tasks are agreed before development, and the content management system is set up so each one means editing a field and saving it. The page layout stays intact, because editors change content and do not touch the design. At handover we walk the editor through each task on the working site and provide a written content-editing guide they can return to. If the person responsible changes later, the guide is there for whoever takes over. Anything beyond everyday editing, such as a new page type or a new feature, is development work. You can ask us for that when it arises, or arrange optional maintenance as a separate agreement.

No, you do not need to visit our studio for a Surbiton project. We can run the whole project through calls and a shared review site. The brief is taken on a call, the scope is sent to you in writing, and the site is built on a staging address where you can see progress at each review point. You have one named contact and a check-in rhythm agreed at the start, so you do not have to ask for status. Handover is a walkthrough call with whoever will look after the site, together with the documentation and the editing guide. An in-person meeting can be arranged if it would be useful, and discovery and handover are the stages where we offer it. Our studio is in New Malden. Tell us at the start which way of working you prefer and we will plan the project around it.
