Your site stays working because someone local is actually watching it
You get a site that works, updates that happen, and someone who actually answers, without hiring an agency or learning to manage it yourself.
Most business websites don't fail all at once.
A form quietly stops sending. Content sits untouched for two years. Something breaks and you're not sure who to call, or you know exactly who to call and it's a ticket system that takes three days to answer. You didn't sign up to be your own IT department, and you shouldn't have to be.
I'm Curt, one person, based in Hardin County.
When you email me, you're talking to the person who actually builds and maintains your site, not a support queue or an account manager relaying messages to someone else. Being local means I can be at your desk the same week if something needs an in-person look.
I've inherited sites with real problems: accessibility failures, clunky UX, nobody in-house able to touch the code. When a municipality came to me with exactly that, I rebuilt it from the ground up. It's updated weekly now, and they don't think twice about the monthly bill. I work with municipalities, non-profits, and local small businesses across Hardin, Seneca, and Wyandot counties, several of whom have stuck with me 5+ years.

“Curt has been great to work with. He took the time to understand the vision behind SAB Tools, communicated clearly, and was patient through a lot of changes and fine tuning. The website came together better than I expected, and I'd definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, talented, and easy to work with.”
Frequently asked questions
Care Plans start at $125/month. A custom build is quoted individually, because a five-page nonprofit site and a full e-commerce rebuild aren't the same job, and I'd rather quote you accurately than pad a number to look competitive.
Agencies are built for volume, which usually means account managers, ticket queues, and hand-offs between whoever's available. I'm the only person who touches your site, so nothing gets lost in translation, and I'm close enough to show up in person the same week.
I only maintain sites that are actively on a Care Plan, even ones I originally built. If your site has gone a while without regular attention, the first step is a rebuild, not a hand-off. It's more work up front, but it means I know exactly how your site works when something needs fixing, instead of untangling shortcuts I can't account for.
