WordPress Maintenance
Service UK
Proactive maintenance plans for UK businesses. We handle updates, backups, monitoring, and security — so your site stays online and your team stays focused.
Everything Your WordPress Site Needs
Every plan covers the six core areas that keep a WordPress site secure, fast, and available.
Security Updates
WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates applied weekly (Standard) or daily (Pro), with staging tests for high-risk changes.
Daily Cloud Backups
Full-site backups every 24 hours, stored encrypted on UK/EU servers. 30-day retention with one-click restore.
24/7 Uptime Monitoring
We monitor your site every minute. If it goes down you get an alert within 60 seconds and we begin investigating immediately.
Malware Scanning
Automated malware scans run daily. Any infection is flagged and quarantined before it affects your visitors or SEO rankings.
Performance Checks
Monthly speed audits with Core Web Vitals tracking. Pro plan includes active optimisation: image compression, caching, and database cleanup.
Monthly Health Report
A clear monthly report covering updates applied, backup status, uptime percentage, security scan results, and performance scores.
24/7 WordPress Monitoring — Not Just Uptime Checks
Most hosting providers offer basic uptime monitoring. We go further — monitoring every layer of your WordPress site around the clock, from server response to file integrity to login security.
When something changes — whether it's a malware injection at 3am or an SSL certificate nearing expiry — we're alerted before you are, and we act immediately. UK businesses on our plans have averaged 99.9% uptime across all monitored sites.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does WordPress monitoring include?
WordPress monitoring covers several layers: uptime monitoring checks your site is responding every 60 seconds and alerts you within seconds if it goes down; performance monitoring tracks page load times and flags slowdowns; SSL certificate monitoring warns you before your certificate expires; malware monitoring scans files and database entries daily for injected code; and login monitoring detects brute-force attempts. WebAdish provides all of these on every maintenance plan, with 24/7 alerting and a documented incident response process.
What does a WordPress maintenance service include?
A WordPress maintenance service covers the ongoing tasks required to keep your site secure, fast, and available. This includes applying WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates; running daily backups stored off-site; monitoring uptime 24/7; scanning for malware; optimising database performance; and providing a monthly health report. Higher-tier plans add daily updates, speed optimisation, and unlimited small content edits.
How much does WordPress maintenance cost in the UK?
WordPress maintenance plans in the UK typically range from £50/month for basic update-only packages to £500+/month for fully managed plans with security monitoring and priority support. WebAdish plans start at £449/month for the Standard plan and £999/month for the Pro plan which adds daily updates, speed optimisation, and unlimited small edits.
What's the difference between a maintenance plan and a security retainer?
A maintenance plan handles routine upkeep — updates, backups, monitoring — and is suitable for most business websites. A security retainer is a higher-tier engagement designed for businesses with elevated risk: it includes proactive penetration testing, real-time threat monitoring, incident response with SLA guarantees, and a dedicated security analyst. If your site processes payments, stores personal data, or is a critical revenue driver, a retainer offers significantly stronger protection.
Do you offer white-label plans for UK agencies?
Yes. We work with a number of UK digital agencies under white-label arrangements. All reports are branded with your agency logo, client communications go through your channels, and your clients never see our name. White-label is available on both Standard and Pro plans.
How often do you apply WordPress updates?
On the Standard plan, updates are applied weekly during a maintenance window. On the Pro plan, updates are applied daily. Critical security patches are applied immediately on all plans. For plugins with a history of breaking changes, we test on a staging copy before deploying to your live site.
What happens if my site gets hacked while on a maintenance plan?
If your site is compromised while under an active maintenance plan, we begin the recovery process immediately at no additional charge. This covers malware removal, backdoor identification, blacklist removal, and restoring from a clean backup if required. The Pro plan includes an enhanced hack guarantee covering all attack vectors.
Are your services GDPR compliant?
Yes. All backups are stored on UK and EU-based servers, encrypted at rest and in transit. We do not transfer your data outside the UK or EU. We operate as a data processor under GDPR and can provide a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) on request.
Can I upgrade or cancel my plan at any time?
Plans are rolling monthly with no minimum term. You can upgrade from Standard to Pro at any point — the difference is prorated. To cancel, provide 30 days written notice. On cancellation we provide a full handover document including backup archives, update history, and a site health summary.
