An established storefront separating into the parts worth keeping and the parts to rebuild, then resolving into a clearer system.

Keep the store. Rework what is holding it back.

Storefront Recast is our defined redesign and rebuild for established Shopify stores. It keeps the catalogue and operating knowledge already earned, then fixes the structure, selling journey and theme where needed.

When a Recast fits

  • the theme makes useful changes slow or risky;
  • product and collection templates leave buying questions unanswered;
  • navigation and merchandising no longer suit the range;
  • repeated patches have made the storefront hard to maintain;
  • the store needs a joined-up rebuild, but not a platform migration.

If one template or defined change will do the job, we recommend that instead.

What is included

Diagnose

We review the offer, buying journey, catalogue, theme and backlog. The output is an agreed problem and scope, not a list of fashionable features.

Rework the architecture

We define navigation, merchandising and the templates needed for the range. Content and proof are placed around real buying decisions.

Deliver the theme

We adapt or rebuild the theme against the agreed scope. App extensions, tracking and key integrations are included where listed.

Validate and launch

The work is checked on a non-live theme. Product discovery, product selection, basket, checkout handoff and agreed operational journeys are tested before release. The launch plan includes a practical route back to the previous theme if a serious storefront issue appears.

Hand over

Your team receives documentation and a usable theme setup. Monthly support is optional.

What this work starts at

Recast delivery

From-price or scoped after diagnosis

One bounded piece

Project sprint

£1,500$2,000

One bounded improvement: landing pages, a template rebuild, an analytics implementation, or a build-readiness review credited against a larger project.

  • One defined outcome, agreed before work starts
  • Fixed price and a fixed finish line
  • Credited against a larger project where it leads to one

Fixed price

Migration and build

Shopify launch

From £5,000From $6,500

Moving to Shopify and building the store in one project, so the data and the storefront land together rather than in two disconnected pieces of work.

  • Store build, configuration and templates
  • Managed data migration within stated limits
  • Redirects, analytics and technical SEO baseline
  • Launch, training and short post-launch support

Starting price

Plus, B2B, multi-market

Advanced Shopify

From £8,000From $10,500

Shopify Plus, B2B, multi-market, multi-language, custom integrations or headless work. These configurations are sized after discovery, not instant-priced.

  • Trade accounts, price lists and B2B rules
  • Multi-market and multi-language configuration
  • ERP, PIM, WMS and accounting integrations
  • Headless or custom storefront work where justified

Starting price · scoped after discovery

The starting point depends on the number of distinct templates, catalogue restructuring, integrations and the amount of theme architecture that must be replaced rather than retained.

Questions

Your questions

Is Recast a Shopify theme?

Not yet. Storefront Recast is the service: diagnosis, architecture, design, implementation, launch and handover. Recast is also reserved as the name for a future reusable UltraLabs Shopify theme, but this engagement does not require or promise that unreleased product.

Do we have to replace our current theme?

No. The current theme is reviewed before that decision is made. If its architecture can support the required templates and editing model, retaining and correcting it is cheaper and less risky than replacing it.

Is this the same as moving to Shopify?

No. Recast is for a store already on Shopify. Moving products, customers, orders and URLs from another platform is a migration with a separate data and cutover scope.

Can Recast continue into monthly support?

Yes, if there is a real backlog worth funding. It is optional and quoted separately. Every Recast still ends with documentation and handover whether or not ongoing support follows.


Send the store and what it has outgrown.

The current theme, catalogue and the changes your team struggles to make are enough to tell whether this is a Recast or a smaller project.
