WordPress website throwing errors? Elementor layout broken? Mobile falling apart? I diagnose it and fix it, usually the same day.
I'm a US-based WordPress developer in Pensacola, Florida, and I do one thing: repair WordPress, Elementor, and WooCommerce sites that are already built and now misbehaving.
That covers two kinds of problems. The site that's actually broken: critical error, white screen, 502s, PHP errors, plugin conflicts, forms that stopped delivering, checkout throwing errors or payments not going through. And the site that's visibly wrong: Elementor layout collapsed after an update, mobile view nothing like the desktop, header that won't behave, product or cart pages displaying wrong.
Some of it is a five-minute fix. Some of it takes real diagnosis before a single line changes. Either way you get a straight answer on which one it is before you spend anything.
PROOF
✅ 100% Job Success Score, 5.0 stars on every completed job
✅ Same-day delivery documented in my work history, opened and closed inside 24 hours
✅ Rated 5/5 for "Solution Oriented" and "Accountable for Outcomes" in Upwork's own client insights
✅ Client-endorsed in WordPress Migration, Hosting Setup, and Domain Migration
✅ ID-verified, US-based, military veteran. A real person in your timezone
ERRORS & BREAKAGES I FIX
✅ Critical error / white screen of death
✅ HTTP 500, 502, 503 and server-level failures
✅ PHP errors, memory limit and PHP worker exhaustion
✅ Plugin and theme conflicts, failed or broken updates
✅ Contact forms not sending or not delivering
✅ Login and admin lockouts, wp-admin and cPanel troubleshooting
✅ Database and permalink errors, redirect loops
✅ Page speed and Core Web Vitals failures
✅ WooCommerce checkout failures, payment gateway and cart errors
and more.
LAYOUT & DISPLAY I FIX
✅ Elementor layout breaks: overlapping text, misaligned sections, broken columns, spacing
✅ Mobile responsiveness: desktop looks right, the phone doesn't
✅ Header, footer, and navigation problems
✅ Styling that changed after a theme or Elementor update
✅ Migrations and host transfers with zero downtime
✅ WooCommerce product, cart, and checkout page display issues
and more.
FULL BUILDS
✅ New WordPress and Elementor sites, built to be edited by you, not by a developer
✅ WooCommerce stores: products, checkout, payment gateways, shipping
✅ Replatforming from Wix, Squarespace, B12, or a legacy theme onto clean WordPress
and more.
FAQ
1. How fast can you start?
Usually within a few hours. Message me during US business hours and most fixes are done the same day.
2. My site is completely down. Can you help right now?
Send the URL and your host login. Site-down work goes to the front of my queue.
3. What if you don't know what's causing it?
Then I diagnose first. Most of what I fix isn't obvious from the outside. The last 502 I chased turned out to be PHP workers dying on uncached requests during traffic spikes. I find the cause, then fix it, rather than guessing at symptoms.
4. What do you need from me?
WordPress admin login, hosting or cPanel access if the site is down, and a screenshot or short recording of the problem.
5. Will you break something else?
No. I take a full backup or work on staging before touching anything live.
6. What if it turns out you can't fix it?
I'll tell you inside the first hour, before you've spent anything.
7. Do you build sites from scratch?
Yes. I've built WooCommerce stores and full replatforms from Wix, B12, and Squarespace onto self-hosted WordPress. Spending most of my time fixing sites other people built is exactly why mine don't break. I've already seen every way an Elementor build falls apart after launch. See my portfolio for finished builds, or message me with what you have in mind.
WHO I WORK BEST WITH
✅ Business owners whose site is broken and who want it working, not explained
✅ Agencies needing overflow WordPress support without onboarding a new contractor
✅ Nonprofits and community organizations running WordPress with no in-house developer
✅ Anyone who inherited a site they didn't build and can't fix
WHAT I DON'T DO
❌ Brand identity or logo design
❌ Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow. WordPress websites only
❌ Custom plugin development from scratch
❌ Content writing or ongoing SEO campaigns
❌ Open-ended retainers with no defined scope
WHAT TO SEND ME
The site URL, a screenshot or description of what's broken, and hosting access if the site is down.
I'll tell you whether I can fix it, how long it takes, and what it costs, usually within the hour.
