Five live builds
All hosted here · open any of them
Not mockups. Working sites with working flows: booking, quoting, checkout. Every one built the same way I'd build yours.
Lakeline Dental Studio
A multi-step booking flow and an honest pricing table: the two things dental patients actually look for.
View live · /clinic-us/ →Ridge & Beam
Heritage roofing, explained visually: an interactive roof diagram feeding a validated quote form.
View live · /roofing-uk/ →API API
Modern Malaysian cooking over open flame: an animated fire menu and a reservation flow that takes four taps.
View live · /restaurant/ →Studio Kilat
A studio site that reads like a portfolio should: a case-study index and a live local-time widget.
View live · /agency/ →TANAH Coffee
Single-origin beans with a working buy box and cart drawer: no Shopify, no per-sale cut.
View live · /ecommerce/ →Yours next.
Send me the business and the problem. I'll send back a fixed price and a date.

The builds above are mine, made to show how I work. This one is someone else's business, with their name on it and their results.
“Before Rory got involved I had a reputation and no system — bookings came from whoever happened to email. In a couple of weeks he sorted out the website so it actually turns up in searches, built me a booking tracker I use every day, and ran an outreach campaign to venues that landed two confirmed concert dates within the first fortnight. He explains everything in plain English and just gets on with it.”

From no booking system to a working pipeline of venues
What I built: search setup and structured data on the site, a booking CRM tracking every venue conversation, a venue and hotel outreach campaign with verified contacts and personalised emails, and a welcome email sequence.
Beyond the brochure
Two more things worth clicking: a working web application, and exactly what my free speed report looks like.
Ampere & Sons
A live quote calculator for an electrician: pick the job, watch an itemised, VAT-correct estimate build itself. No reload, no waiting, no callback.
Try it live · /calculator/ →The Speed Rescue
I audited 50+ UK trades websites in July 2026. Roughly a third failed the phone test. This is the one-page breakdown I send, worked through on a real site.

A template site carries the weight of every feature you'll never use. A hand-coded site carries yours.
| Template site | Hand-coded | |
|---|---|---|
| First load on mobile | 4–8 seconds | Under 1 second |
| Plugins to keep updated | 15–30 | Zero |
| Monthly platform fees | $20–$70 | $0 |
| Who owns the site | The platform | You do |
About
I'm Rory Phillips, an MEng-trained engineer who builds websites the way engineers build anything: by hand, with a reason for every part. I work with clients in the United States, the United Kingdom and Malaysia, across time zones and without agency overhead. Every project ships with its full source code and a set of plain-English handover notes, so nothing about your own site is a mystery to you.
