Tell us what’s broken. Be brief.

Don’t polish it. A half-finished note sent in 30 seconds beats a careful one an hour later.

The exact URL that’s broken. If it’s only one page, link that page.

Error messages, what you tried, who hosts it, when it started — whatever’s at the top of your head.

What counts as an emergency.

If your site is costing you money right now, it qualifies. These are the six we see most.

Hacked or defaced

Malware removed, the way in closed, and a review request filed with Google if your site has been flagged.

What to do right now →

White screen or fatal error

We find the plugin, theme, or PHP change behind it and get the site loading again.

What to do right now →

An update broke the site

Roll back to a working copy first, then work out which update did it and fix it properly.

What to do right now →

Database damage or lost data

Recovery from backups, or repair table by table when the backup is older than the data you need.

What to do right now →

Locked out of wp-admin

Access recovered through SFTP, SSH, or the database, then the login path locked down again.

What to do right now →

Spam pages or SEO injection

Junk pages and redirects cleaned out, Search Console cleared, and the hole they came through closed.

What to do right now →

What waiting costs.

  • A hack left alone.

    It spreads. More bad files, more spam. Then a Google warning, and your host may shut the site off.

  • A quick patch, not a real cleanup.

    The site looks fine, but the way in is still open. The hackers come back, often worse.

  • A site that stays down.

    Every hour, sales and calls go to someone else. After a few days, you can slip in Google too.

The sooner we look, the smaller the job.

How triage works.

Most WordPress emergencies look terrifying and have one small cause. The job is to find it without making things worse.

01

We confirm we have it

A person replies in writing with the URL we received and who is picking it up. Never an auto-responder.

02

We find out what is wrong

Hosting status, error logs, recent changes, and any sign of a break-in — read before anything gets touched.

03

We get you back online

If a clean backup or undoing the change puts the site back safely, that happens first. The deeper fix comes after.

04

You get it in writing

Before deeper work: what is broken, what we will do, and a fixed price. After the fix: a short report of what happened.

What the fee covers.

One starting price, agreed first

From $490. Most emergencies are done for that; if yours needs more, you see the number before we go deeper, and it doesn’t grow afterwards. If the honest answer is a rebuild, we say so and quote that separately.

No fix, no fee

If we can’t recover your site, you pay nothing. If the same infection comes back within 30 days, we clean it again free.

The fee comes back if you stay

Fee credited over your first 3 months if you join a care plan after. Care plans start at $149/mo, month-to-month — and once we look after the site, emergencies are included. See the plans →

“Andrew, you saved the day. Thank you again!”

Before you send the URL.

What counts as an emergency?
Your site is offline or showing a white screen, it has been hacked or defaced, an update broke checkout or login, malware is showing up in Google results, or anything else that is actively costing you money right now.
How fast do you actually respond?
We reply within 2 hours, 9am–5pm Pacific, every day — a senior engineer reads new emergencies, not an auto-responder.
What does it cost?
From $490. Most emergencies — a hacked site, a white screen, a broken update — are done for that. If yours needs more, you get the number in writing before any deeper work starts; there is no hourly meter. If we cannot recover your site, you pay nothing, and the fee is credited over your first 3 months if you join a care plan after.
What do you need from me to start?
The URL, one line about what is broken, and access when we get there: hosting or SFTP, and a WordPress admin account. We ask for accounts in our own name that you can revoke afterwards — never a shared password.
What if my site cannot be recovered from a backup?
If the backups are missing or corrupt, we rebuild from the live database, your host's snapshots, and the original plugin and theme files from WordPress.org. If a partial rebuild is the honest answer, we say so and quote a fixed price for it — not a runaway clock.

Every hour it stays down costs you something.
