Yes. A one-page site, a single upgrade, a laptop that keeps crashing: all fine. Below about £800 I quote a fixed day rate instead of a project price.
Software ships with the repository, a deploy script and 30 days of fixes. Repairs carry a 90-day warranty on labour, and parts follow the supplier's warranty. After that, further work is quoted as new work.
I'll tell you when I can start. If that's too late for you, I'll say so and point you to someone else if I can.
