How we price

Fixed price. When the brief is clear, you get one number before work starts. If we discover the job is bigger, we stop and re-quote — you never get a surprise invoice.

Paid diagnostic. When the cause is unknown, we charge a small fixed amount to find it. You get a written finding and a fixed quote for the fix, whether or not you proceed.

Above $4,000. Larger work is usually better served by a studio with a full team. We will say so and, where we can, refer you.

What moves the price

  • How clearly the problem can be reproduced
  • Access to the code, hosting and accounts
  • How many systems are involved
  • Testing needed before release
  • Urgency outside business hours

Questions

Do you charge for quotes?

No. Reading your brief and replying is free. Only a diagnostic — when the problem needs investigating — is paid, and you approve it first.

When do I pay?

Small jobs are usually paid on completion. Larger fixed-price jobs may take a deposit. Terms are stated on every quote.

Are prices in AUD and do they include GST?

Prices are in Australian dollars. GST treatment is shown on each quote.
