Shopify Maintenance in Exeter

Maintaining Shopify stores for Exeter retailers, where the theme slowly fills with code from apps nobody uses any more. Uninstalling an app removes the billing and frequently leaves its snippets behind — so a store that has trialled a dozen over three years is carrying scripts for most of them on every page load.

Why this comes up

The problem

Six apps were removed over the past year and their code is still running on every page.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Leftover app code identified and removed from the theme
  • Installed apps reviewed regularly against whether they are still earning their cost
  • Theme customisations documented, since these block straightforward updates
  • Broken links and missing products found before customers report them
  • Speed monitored, as it degrades gradually rather than all at once
  • A staging theme used for changes rather than editing the live one

Shopify Maintenance in Exeter — common questions

Why does removing an app not remove its code?
Because the app added it to your theme. Anything injected into template files stays when the app is uninstalled, so it continues loading scripts and requesting resources for a service that no longer exists — slowing the store for no benefit at all.
How often should apps be reviewed?
A couple of times a year is usually enough. Subscriptions accumulate quietly, and a review that asks what each one is for typically finds two or three nobody can justify — which is both a monthly saving and a page-weight reduction.
Why does theme customisation matter for updates?
Because a heavily edited theme cannot simply be updated. Changes made directly to template files are lost or conflict when a new version arrives, so documenting what was altered and why is what makes eventual updating possible rather than a rebuild.
Should changes be made on the live theme?
No. Editing the published theme means every mistake is visible to customers immediately, and there is no straightforward way back — duplicating it, making changes there and publishing when satisfied costs nothing and removes that risk entirely.
Do you work with businesses across Devon?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South West, including Exeter and the surrounding Devon area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Exeter businesses do you usually work with?
Field service scheduling and routing for businesses covering a wide rural patch, plus professional services systems. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Professional Services, Healthcare, Retail and Environmental Science.
Do you cover the areas around Exeter?
Yes — we work throughout South West, including Plymouth, Truro, Bristol. Exeter is an urban area of roughly 130,000+, and we take on work across the wider Devon region rather than the city boundary alone.
