FAQ
Shopify Store Builds: common questions
Do you build custom Shopify themes or use existing ones?
Both. I build fully custom Liquid themes when you need something unique, or tailor a well-built premium theme when that is the faster, more cost-effective route. I will recommend the right approach for your budget and goals.
Can you convert my Figma design into a Shopify store?
Yes. Pixel-accurate Figma-to-Shopify conversion is a core part of what I do. I rebuild the design as a clean, maintainable theme that matches across mobile, tablet and desktop.
Will I be able to edit the store myself?
Yes. I build editor-friendly themes and hand over an organised setup so you can add products and update content without touching code. I can include a short guide too.
How long does a Shopify build take?
Usually 2 to 4 weeks depending on scope. A small store is quicker; a large custom build takes longer. You get a clear timeline before we begin.
