About
About ExtraTech
A technology team focused on doing the practical work well and sticking around to look after it.
ExtraTech is an independent IT and digital-services team. We help organisations build the software they need, host it reliably, keep it secure and maintained, and make better decisions about technology along the way.
Our approach is deliberately down to earth. We prefer mainstream, well-supported tools over fashionable ones, we explain what we are doing in plain language, and we leave documentation behind so you are never dependent on a single supplier. The round-the-clock attention in our name is about reliability: systems should keep running whether or not anyone is watching them.
What guides us
- Practical first. We solve the real problem in front of you rather than selling the biggest possible project.
- Transparent. Clear scope, honest trade-offs and no hidden complexity.
- Secure by default. Security and backups are part of the plan from the start, not an afterthought.
- Maintainable. We build things your own team can understand and extend.
Who we help
We work with teams of different sizes and across sectors — from organisations modernising older systems, to growing businesses that need dependable hosting and support, to teams that simply want an independent technology opinion before they commit.

Websites, internal tools and line-of-business applications built with mainstream, well-supported technology and documented so your team can maintain them.
Cloud hosting & migration
Planning, setting up and moving workloads to reliable cloud platforms, with sensible backups, monitoring and cost controls.
