A website that’s built properly, then looked after properly.
Refined Digital designs and builds websites for wineries and cellar doors, property developers and professional firms. We also host and maintain what we build, which is rarer than it should be.

- Building for the web since 2004
- 100+ sites shipped
- Clients around the world
Sound familiar?
The site was built six or seven years ago. The person who built it has moved on. It’s slow on a phone, the news page stopped in 2021, and nobody in the office still has the login. Meanwhile you’re quoting on bigger work than ever, and everyone who checks you out online is reading the old story.
01
Built properly.
Custom design and development, shaped around how your clients actually find you and judge you. No page-builder templates.
02*
Looked after.
Hosting, security, backups and updates are our job, not yours. You get a short monthly report in plain English so you know it’s being done.
03*
Kept current.
Content changes and improvements are part of the plan. The site shouldn’t quietly rot the way the last one did.
* On a care plan. Managed hosting on its own keeps the site up; the plan is the work on top of it, and it’s on every proposal we write. What’s in a care plan →
Who we serve
Three industries where the website is doing more work than people think.

Wine & cellar doors
Hours, events and bookings answered on the first screen, with the shop and the wine club behind them.

Property development
Project sites that turn a launch into registrations, with availability the sales team keeps current.

Websites that make a firm look as credible online as it is in the room, for law, accounting and advisory practices.

Steps one to four look like every agency’s process page. Step five is the reason our clients stay for years.

You deal with the person doing the work.
I’m Matthias. I’ve been building websites for more than twenty years, much of that as the developer agencies brought in when a project actually mattered. Refined Digital is me, working directly with you. No account managers, nobody learning on your job.
Proof
What people who’ve hired us say.
Some of these are design agencies. They build websites for a living, and they still bring us in when a project actually matters.
“Over the years, Matthias has proven to be incredibly easy to work with, consistently delivering intelligent and creative solutions that add immense value to our projects. His efficiency and responsiveness ensure every project is completed seamlessly, and his ‘nothing is too hard’ attitude makes even the most complex challenges feel achievable.”
Jason, KS Design Studio “I have had the absolute pleasure of working with Matthias from Refined Digital for over 10 years, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. His ability to translate complex ideas into seamless, user-friendly, and visually stunning websites has been a cornerstone of my agency’s success.”
Carly, 18th Street “The front-end development consistently matches our design specifications. Matthias is very responsive to our clients’ needs and just makes it happen. I consider him an invaluable extension of the team.”
