Terms, in plain English.

These are the terms you agree to when you commission a site from 1 Week Sites. They apply in addition to the brief document we both sign on day one.

The offer

One bespoke website, designed and hand-coded by Gareth Wray, live on your domain within seven days of the project start date. A standard five-to-seven-page site is one sprint at £1,000 GBP, paid in full before work begins. Sites that need more pages take longer than a week and are scoped and priced on the discovery call. No retainer, no ongoing fee.

The guarantee

If the site is not live on your domain by end of day seven (the Tuesday after the brief, 23:59 GMT), I refund the full fee within 48 hours. No kill fee, no partial deductions, no debate. The only exception is if the launch is blocked by something outside my control, for example you have not provided final copy, you have not approved a design revision, or your domain registrar is experiencing an outage. In those cases the week is paused and we agree a new delivery date.

Scope and revisions

Scope is locked in the brief document on Tuesday. One revision round is included, scheduled for Saturday. Changes that fall outside the original scope roll into a second sprint at a fresh quote. They do not invalidate the guarantee on the original scope.

Ownership

The code is yours the moment it is deployed. The GitHub repository transfers to your account, the hosting project transfers to your account, the domain stays on your registrar. I retain no lock-in, no backdoor access, no licence to the design or content after handover.

Third-party costs

Domain registration, hosting, and any third-party services (Stripe, analytics providers, email platforms, and so on) are paid by you directly to those providers. None of those costs are included in the sprint fee, and none are marked up.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any dispute will be resolved in the English courts.
