WORDPRESS REPAIR

WordPress Repair — diagnose, stabilize, and get a fixed-scope quote

When WordPress is down, locked, slow, or broken after an update, Rescue 404 runs a paid diagnostic, then a written repair quote — not a redesign and not a free “quick look.”

Starts with Rescue Diagnostic: $175 (one-time) — Credited toward fix if you proceed. Not free. Not refundable.

THIS IS YOU IF

WordPress symptoms that usually need a hired repair

DIY guides help when you still have access. Hire when revenue or admin is already compromised.

  • White screen, critical error, or blank admin

    PHP fatals, plugin collisions, or memory limits after an update or deploy.

  • Site loads for some people and fails for others

    Caching, CDN, or hosting throttling that looks like a “WordPress bug.”

  • Checkout, forms, or login suddenly fail

    WooCommerce, form plugins, or auth paths break while the homepage still looks fine.

  • Malware warnings or unexplained redirects

    Injected code, spam links, or search-console security flags.

  • You hired someone else and still do not have a root cause

    Guesswork plugin roulette without logs, hosting context, or a written findings note.

  • Business impact is climbing by the hour

    Leads, bookings, or orders stop while you wait on host ticket queues.

WHAT WE DO

Repair, not redesign

Stabilize the break. Quote the fix. Leave design work with your designer.

  • Paid diagnostic first

    Investigation with written findings and a fixed repair quote. Diagnostic is credited if you proceed.

  • Stabilize before polish

    Restore access, stop the outage, and isolate the fault — then scope the lasting fix.

  • WordPress + hosting context

    We look at plugins, theme, PHP, database, DNS, and host limits — not WordPress alone in a vacuum.

  • Honest platform fit

    Full rescue on WordPress and self-hosted stacks. Closed builders get an honest limit call early.

PROCESS

How a WordPress repair engagement runs

Same protocol as every Rescue job — intake, diagnostic, stabilize, hand-back.

1

Send the signal

Tell us what happened, how it impacts the business, and share the website address. Screenshots and logs help — passwords go through Password Pusher or One-Time Secret (optional share-link field, or after we reply). Prefer a dedicated Rescue 404 admin account.

2

Paid diagnostic

$175 investigation on a controlled path. You get written findings and a fixed repair quote. Credited in full if you proceed.

3

Stabilize & repair

We isolate the fault, restore access when needed, and address the root cause within scope — not a random plugin roulette.

4

Hand back control

You review the outcome. Optional Care enrollment keeps updates, backups, and monitoring from becoming the next emergency.

AFTER YOU ARE STABLE

Prevention comes after recovery

Once access is restored and the break is fixed, Care keeps updates, backups, and monitoring from becoming the next emergency. We do not push a monthly plan while the site is still on fire.

WORDPRESS REPAIR FAQ

Before you open intake

How this page relates to emergency repair, the knowledge base, and pricing.

How is this different from Emergency Website Repair? +
Same rescue lane — paid diagnostic, then fixed-scope repair. This page is the WordPress-focused hire path. Emergency Website Repair is the urgency-first landing with triage tools. Use either; both feed the same intake.
Is this the same as the Website Repair guides? +
No. /website-repair/ is the DIY knowledge base. This page is for hiring Rescue 404. Guides stay available if you want to try safe steps first.
What does the diagnostic cost? +
The Rescue Diagnostic is $175 paid upfront. It is credited in full toward the repair if you proceed with us. It is not refundable — you pay for real investigation and a written fix quote. Full rules: Refunds & Payment.
Do you redesign my site as part of repair? +
No. Repair stabilizes and fixes the break. Redesigns, new features, and conversion rebuilds are separate quotes — or stay with your designer.
What if I am on shared hosting? +
We can often triage and repair on the host you have today. Lasting Care and some deep host-level work may require migration into our managed environment. We say so early.
What platforms do you fully support? +
WordPress, WooCommerce, and self-hosted PHP/CMS stacks with cooperative access. Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, and similar closed builders have very limited backend access — we tell you honestly before you pay.
