The 10 Best Squarespace Designers in the UK (2026)

By Nick Croce

If you’ve searched for a Squarespace designer in the UK, you’ll have noticed that every list is written by a designer, and every designer puts themselves first. This one is no different, so let’s get that out of the way: I’m Nick, I run Design by Ency, and I’m number one on my own list. What I can offer instead of false modesty is a list where every name is a real, working UK Squarespace designer with public reviews, a current site and a track record I’d be happy to put my own name next to.

Each entry has the same five things, because they’re the five things you actually need when you’re choosing: who they are, what they do, what it costs, where they are, and the link. Prices are taken from each designer’s own website at the time of writing and will change, so treat them as a starting point and confirm with the person.

How I picked the ten

  • UK-based, with a published address or region, so you know the time zone, the tax and the law you’re dealing with.
  • Squarespace is their main platform, not one option on a menu of twelve.
  • Public proof: Squarespace Circle membership or Expert status, named client work you can click through to, and reviews you can read.
  • Still taking clients. Several well-known names have moved to templates or courses only, so they’re not here.

The 10 best Squarespace designers in the UK

Nick Croce, founder of Design by Ency, smiling in a studio🏆

1. Nick Croce, Design by Ency

Surprise, surprise: I picked myself first. Let me explain. I’m a Squarespace website designer in Liverpool, and over the past six years I’ve designed and built more than 250 Squarespace websites for businesses across the UK, the US and beyond, as a Squarespace Circle Platinum Partner and a recommended expert on the Squarespace Marketplace. Unlike most studios at this level, I do the work myself: I’m not an agency, so you work directly with me from the first call to launch, with no handing your project to a junior once the contract is signed. And you choose the model: a custom Squarespace website built and handed over for you to run, or a site I build and then look after for you every month, so it keeps getting better instead of quietly going out of date.

What stands outPlatinum Partner credentials with no agency between you and the designer, and a monthly option where the site is built and run for you.

Elizabeth Ellery, Squarespace website designer in the Cotswolds, smiling at her desk

10. Elizabeth Ellery

Liz trained in fashion design and spent ten years with a London fashion brand that sold everywhere from Selfridges to Saks Fifth Avenue, picking up personal branding, website design and email marketing along the way. She then swapped London for the Cotswolds and turned all of that into a brand and Squarespace website studio for coaches and service-based business owners, with more than 100 of them launched so far. She also hosts the Website Designer Summit, an online event for Squarespace designers whose 2026 line-up included Dave Hawkins, Sam Crawford and Kerstin Martin, and sells her own Squarespace templates for the do-it-yourself crowd. Expect a warm, personality-first brand rather than a corporate one.

What stands outA decade in fashion shows in the brand work, and hosting the Website Designer Summit makes her as plugged into the Squarespace designer world as anyone here.

  • Three-day brand and website package

A rough rule for the whole UK market, from the figures above: a one-page site or a design day sits around £950 to £1,500, a full custom build of around five pages runs from about £1,500 to £3,500 with a freelancer, and agency-level builds start around £3,500 to £5,000 and go well past that for enterprise work. Two of the designers above price in US dollars because much of their work is international; the pound figures land in the same bands.

Worth knowing beyond the UK

Four names that don’t qualify for the ten, because they aren’t in the UK, but that I’d be doing you a disservice to leave out. All four work remotely, and their pricing is in US dollars.

How to choose between them

Start with the model, not the portfolio. Do you want to run the site yourself afterwards, or would you rather someone else did? That one answer rules half the list in or out. Then look at who each designer builds for: Clare’s work is for creatives and wellness businesses, Sam and Dave lean enterprise, Emily is strongest where marketing matters as much as design, and SpaceWorks suits anyone who wants an agency team behind a specialist. I’ve written a longer guide on how to choose a Squarespace website designer, including the questions to ask on the first call.

And if you’d like to talk to the one at the top of the list, book a free call. No pitch, just a straight answer on whether I’m the right fit, and a name from this list if I’m not.

Questions people ask

How much does a Squarespace designer cost in the UK?

From the prices above: roughly £950 to £1,500 for a one-page site or a design day, £1,500 to £3,500 for a full custom build with a freelancer, and £3,500 to £5,000 or more with an agency. Monthly models, where the designer builds the site and then runs it for you, start around £150 a month, though those are usually custom-coded rather than Squarespace.

What do Circle, Expert and Platinum Partner mean?

Squarespace Circle is the platform’s programme for professionals who build sites for clients. Members are tiered by how many sites they’ve launched: Silver, then Gold, then Platinum, which is the highest tier and means the designer has launched a lot of Squarespace sites, not just a few. Squarespace Expert is a separate, vetted status for a smaller group, and the Marketplace lists designers Squarespace itself recommends. None of them guarantee a good website, but Platinum in particular guarantees the designer has done this many, many times before.

Do I need a designer near me?

No. Every designer on this list works remotely, and most have clients abroad. What a UK designer gives you is the same working hours, UK-aware copy and SEO, and someone who understands UK pricing, VAT and the law around cookies and accessibility. Meeting in person is a bonus, not a requirement.
