Third-Party VPS Setup

Overview

Third-Party VPS Setup is for organisations who want expert deployment on external providers such as Vultr or Kamatera, but prefer to retain direct control of billing. We scope and price each setup per job, ensuring the right balance between cost, security, and performance.

Our engineers provision the base operating system, apply hardening (SSH, roles, firewall), and prepare either a scaffold for your apps or a production-ready environment. Backups and monitoring hooks are included as standard. For larger or more complex environments — multi-node, high-availability, compliance requirements — we design and deliver a tailored plan with clear documentation.

Typical engagements: small startups needing a secure server footprint, remote teams looking for predictable performance, or established firms offloading the heavy lifting of initial VPS setup while keeping provider billing in their name.

For when you don’t fit neatly in a box.

Custom Hosting is for applications or workloads that don’t fit a predefined plan. It could be a framework site, a multi-component stack, or an unusual mix of requirements. We scope the resources with you, provision a stable base, and manage it day-to-day with the same care we apply to our standard services. Every deployment includes Anycast DNS, auto-renewed SSL certificates, daily backups with restore support, and 24/7 monitoring. Hosting runs on our in-house Supermicro hardware with 8 Gbps uplinks and an identical standby set for rapid failover. Capacity is capped to keep performance consistent and support responsive. If your workload grows beyond a custom plan, we’ll help you scale into VPS (Bespoke) or Dedicated infrastructure. For WordPress or static content, see WordPress (Managed) or Static Hosting, which may be a better fit.

From scaffolds to band-aids — on standby when you need us.

Retained support gives you a standing window for routine care and fast help when you need it. It keeps the small but important work moving and, should an urgent problem arise, gives you a named engineer who already understands your stack and constraints.Choose a plan that fits how you operate: Retainer (Lite) includes 45 minutes each month for housekeeping and small requests; Retainer (4 seat) includes 1.5 hours; Retainer (8 seat) includes 3 hours; Retainer (16 seat) includes 7.5 hours. Additional time is billed in 15-minute blocks (£20) and retained clients queue-jump ad-hoc work. Typical use includes patching, plugin updates, certificate renewals, mailbox/admin changes, light user support, and quick advice (e.g., Wi-Fi placement or a tidy migration plan).Many of the “fire-drills” we’re called to fix stem from drift: missed patches, stale plugins, untested changes, or unclear ownership. The cost isn’t just the fix; it’s downtime, lost momentum, and follow-on rework. A retainer doesn’t remove incidents, but it makes them rarer and shorter because routine work is handled and context is known.Plans: Retainer (Lite) is a month-to-month service. Retainer (4/8/16 seat) has a 3-month minimum. No rollover.Extras are billed in 15-minute blocks at £20 (effective £80/h).
