Years Experience

Website Design & Management

Your website, taken care of.

Most business owners update their website once and forget it. Then six months later the contact form breaks, the SSL lapses, or Google drops them from search results. We handle the ongoing maintenance so that does not happen to you.

Need a new website or help looking after an existing one? We’ll review what you need and recommend a practical plan for your business.

Tell us whether you need a new website or support for your current one. We’ll help you understand your options.

Professional website design

A clean, mobile-friendly website that explains your services and makes it easy for customers to contact you.

Managed hosting & HTTPS

We handle your website hosting and SSL certificate management so you have one place to turn for help.

Maintenance & security

Routine maintenance, applicable software updates, backups, and security checks help keep your website running smoothly.

Monthly website changes

One hour of website updates each month for changes such as business hours, photos, service descriptions, and other small improvements.

Search-friendly foundations

Basic on-page SEO, clear page titles, useful headings, and organised content help search engines understand your business.

Direct technical support

Get help from Total Custom Solutions when you need website changes, advice, or technical assistance.

Get a website that fits your business, with ongoing help to keep it current. Monthly plans are tailored to your website and support needs. Larger changes and additional work are quoted separately.

Business Automation

Stop doing the same tasks twice.

One client was manually copying order details from their website into their accounting software every morning. It took an hour a day and errors crept in. We connected the two systems and that job now runs by itself in seconds. That is the kind of problem we fix.

Tell us which repetitive task is slowing your team down. We’ll map it and show you what automation looks like.

FAQ

Questions we hear before every project.

Focused tools ship in 12–16 weeks. Larger operational platforms usually run 4–7 months, delivered in sprints so you see working software every two weeks.

We integrate regularly with REST APIs or direct database connectors.

Canadian regions by default on Azure, with Cloudflare in front. On-premise and hybrid deployments are supported for regulated clients.

Every engagement includes a support agreement: monitoring, patching, a quarterly roadmap review.
