About

Who we are

CK Services is a full-service creative web design agency based in Thirsk, near York in North Yorkshire. We have many years of web design and development experience, and are constantly upgrading our skills with the latest technologies.

We work with many local and national companies to produce visually-attractive yet functional websites and web-based software solutions. Before commencing a project, we work hard to develop relationships with our clients, which in turn lead to the production of better solutions which meet our client’s needs exactly. We consider it of paramount importance that you, the client, get exactly what you need.

Where we are

Thirsk is a bustling and historic market town which also happens to be near the major commuter routes of the A1, A19 and directly on the East Coast railway line, which makes traveling to and from our premises a breeze. We’re happy to travel to see our clients, or you are welcome to visit us if you prefer. We’re easy to find and we’ll have the kettle on (we love a good coffee!)

Wherever and however we meet, we guarantee to be honest and up-front at all times. We’ll never flannel you, nor will we recommend a solution which won’t work for you, or which you’re not happy with. We avoid the use of ‘geek-speak’ and jargon like the plague, and are always happy to explain anything you might not understand.

"CK Services provide us with all our web development on an ongoing basis. They have a wealth of experience which has saved us so much money on wasted exercises over the years. I wouldn't use anyone else for my website development"
Viviane Morris, Much Loved People.com

"CK Services have delivered not only an attractive and effective website but subsequently a fast, efficient and very friendly customer focused support service. They never tire of our lack of technical knowledge and are always keen to resolve all our requests."
Julie Gough - Mapping Solutions

"The web package I chose was really affordable for my small business. CK Services undertook the site design, hosting and search engine optimisation. I chose a template and images, wrote the page content and they did the rest. The web design is technically very good, the layouts and drafts were produced very quickly and all changes that I requested were undertaken promptly. "
Ebby Yarrow - Yarrow Safety

"CK Services gave good advice and listened to my requirements before recommending a number of web site designs to choose from. Once one was choosen they worked hard to set it up exactly how I wanted it. I found them to be friendly, reliable and very helpful and I would strongly recommend them to anyone in the future."
Richard Reah - North of England Bonsai.

"CK Services have been very professional and extremely prompt with their service. I wanted a very personal website to suite my new holiday cottages and after asking a few companies, CKS was the only company which had imagination enough to help me. They were open to my ideas and also gave a lot of well-needed input. Fantastic people to deal with, I would highly recomend them to anyone and everyone!"
Jessica Barker - Thief Hole Cottages.

"CKS responded very well to our needs, fully understanding what we were trying to achieve. I asked them to design our new logo and they very patiently worked with us until we got it just right! We've also used CKS for printing our business cards and letterheads and again very pleased with the quality and response we've had."
Mark Sanchez-Garcia - The Sanchez-Garcia Partnership.

"It's been brilliant working with CK Services again. They are great at finding swift solutions to tricky technical issues and I'm particularly impressed that they created everything we needed by my very short deadline."
Julie Gough - Marketing and Communications Manager, Wildlife Trust for Sheffield and Rotherham.
