Services & pricing · 2026

03 / Custom software
Get your business off spreadsheets.
Custom tools built around how your business actually runs. From small integrations through to substantial line-of-business systems, including the white-goods ERP I've previously built from the ground up.
Integration starter
Connect two systems so they talk properly. Website form → email list, POS → Xero, booking calendar → Google Calendar — that sort of thing. Quick wins, repeatable.
£495Custom tool or dashboard
A focused internal app: stock tracker, job sheets, booking system for a single purpose, a dashboard pulling figures together. Built in Python and modern web tech.
from £1,495Full custom system
Substantial line-of-business builds. Recent work in this space includes business-critical Python software for a growing white-goods retailer, plus a separate, standalone ERP I've built independently — sales, stock, routes, driver app and reporting. Bespoke quote after a paid discovery call (£195, redeemable against the project).
from £4,50004 / Email & Microsoft 365
A proper business email.
Move off `yourshop@gmail.com` and onto something professional on your own domain. Set up properly the first time.
New email on your domain
First mailbox set up on Microsoft 365 with your business domain.
£125Migration from another provider
Moving from Gmail, Outlook or another host. First user £195, then £45 per extra user.
from £195Ongoing M365 licences
Microsoft's price passed through, plus £3 per user / month for management and support.
Microsoft + £3/user05 / Questions
Sensible answers.
Do all these prices include VAT?
No VAT to add. Skiddaw Digital isn't VAT-registered, so the prices you see are the prices you pay. (That changes once I'm trading near the £90k turnover threshold, but we'll cross that bridge later.)
How long does a website typically take?
Starter sites are usually two to three weeks from start to live. Standard four to six weeks. Premium and bespoke builds depend on scope — we'll agree a timeline up front and stick to it.
Do I have to take a care plan?
No, but you really should. A modern website needs hosting, SSL, security updates and someone keeping an eye on it. The alternative is finding a builder who'll charge you £200 the first time something breaks at the worst possible moment.
What if my project doesn't fit any of these?
Drop me a line. Custom software in particular is rarely identical from one job to the next — these prices are starting points and we'd sort a proper quote after a conversation.
Can you work with businesses outside Cumbria?
Yes, but Cumbrian businesses come first — that's the whole point of Skiddaw Digital. If you're nearby in the Lakes, West Cumbria, Eden Valley or the South Lakes, even better.
