I design and build websites, web apps and tools for small businesses. The demonstrations on this site are real, working applications, so you can see exactly what you would be paying for.

What I do
Clean, fast sites for businesses that need to look right and be found. Anything from a single page to a full site with its own admin.
Booking systems, client portals, dashboards, galleries. Sites that do something, with the database and admin behind them.
Desktop utilities, Discord bots, game servers, and scripts that glue your systems together.
Making sure the people searching for what you do actually find you, whether I built your site or someone else did.
Selected work
● Live demo
The site you are reading is itself the pitch: a portfolio platform that hosts eight working demo applications, each with its own database, plus an admin, an enquiry inbox and an automated test suite.
● Live demo
A building contractor’s whole job in one system: a quote form that prices itself, an office that turns enquiries into priced quotes, and a client portal where the customer follows their own build and approves the changes that alter the price.
● Live demo
A plant hire yard with genuine fleet availability across date ranges, hire-rate pricing that matches how yards actually charge, and a yard office running contracts from booked to back on the yard.
● Live demo
A complete portfolio and client-gallery platform for a working wedding photographer: public site, drag-and-drop admin, and passcode-protected proofing galleries with downloads and photo selection.
Reviews
We had a new website built for our property maintenance and construction business and it turned out great. The site is clean, professional and easy to use. It shows our services clearly and looks much better than what we had before. The process was simple and we are happy with the result. Recommended for any trade or construction company needing a solid website.
I'm not technical at all and I was dreading getting a website sorted, but mithian made it painless. He asked what my work actually involves, then built things I didn't even know I needed- private passworded galleries for my couples, a way for them to choose their favourite photos, and a tool for ordering hundreds of images before I send them off. When I want to change something on the site I just do it myself from my phone. It was a fixed price agreed up front and he was patient with every question I had. My website went from my weakest link to the thing clients compliment 🙏
How it works
Not the solution, the problem. What's slow, what's manual, what's costing you customers. We work out the right thing to build together.
You get a working version on a real link early on, not a mock-up. You click around, tell me what's wrong, and it gets better each round.
You get the code, the content and clear instructions. Nothing is held hostage. If you want me to keep looking after it I can, but you never need me to.
Where I work
I'm based in Kent and most of my clients are here: cafés, barbers, builders, hire yards and photographers. Everything is done by email and on a real link you can open, so distance has never mattered much. But if you want someone in the same county who answers their own messages, that is what this is.
Outside Kent is fine too. I work with businesses across the UK the same way.
Tell me what you need. You’ll get a straight answer and a written price before anything starts.
