Plattenbrand

See it finished, then decide

Your website should work for you — not you for your website.

We build your site completely first — you look at it and then decide. €950 one-off, €20/month to run it, no upfront payment. All prices plus VAT.

  • building for the web since 2000
  • lightning-fast & maintenance-free
  • usually a finished site in a few days
  • a real studio in Tutzing on Lake Starnberg

01 — What you get

A finished website — not the next building kit.

Custom-built on a modern, fast stack. No feature dump, just what actually matters.

  • A finished website, not a building kit

    Custom-built, modern, good on every device — not clicked together from templates.

  • Fast & low-maintenance

    Built modern: loads instantly and runs without plugin updates or the security-hole treadmill.

  • SEO & findability built in

    Clean tech, meaningful titles, structured data — so Google finds you.

  • Hosting & care included

    Your site runs securely and fast — hosting, security and stack updates included, with a dedicated contact. And every month you see in black and white what your site has delivered: visitors, Google visibility, speed. Small content changes afterwards: a flat €39 plus VAT.

02 — The honest question

Why not just use an AI site builder?

Fair question — AI builders can produce a website in minutes these days. The difference is not the building. It is everything that comes after.

  • Done for you, not do-it-yourself

    A builder hands you a tool — the building is still on you. But you don’t want to build a website, not even in 30 seconds. You want it to be there and to run. That is exactly what we take off your hands: build, fill, go live.

  • Operations with accountability

    With a builder, you are your own webmaster: legal pages, privacy, keeping content current, “why is the site down?” — it all stays on your desk. With us, your website has a person in charge, with a name — and you get a monthly report of what it delivered. Which builder sends you that?

  • A real contact, not a hotline

    When something comes up, you write directly to Lennart — not a hotline, not a chatbot, not a ticket queue overseas. We run the studio in Tutzing on Lake Starnberg and answer ourselves.

03 — How it works

Four steps — and you only pay at the end.

No risk, no sales pressure. You decide only once your finished site is in front of you.

  1. Send a request

    A short form: tell us about your project. Takes two minutes.

  2. I build your site

    Fully designed and filled in — in days, not months.

  3. You take a look

    Live in your browser at its own demo address — no pressure at all.

  4. You decide

    If you like it, you buy it for €950 plus VAT — and your site moves to your own domain. If not, it costs you nothing.

04 — Pricing

Clear prices. No upfront payment.

A simple model instead of quote ping-pong. Larger projects we do on request.

Your existing website has seen better days? A rebuild costs the same: €950 — your address stays, and we carry over any texts and images worth keeping. Larger sites or special features? Tell us what you need — you get a fixed quote.

05 — Work

Already live — see for yourself.

Current client sites, built fast and static. Click through them — this is exactly what you get.

This very site is part of the reference — the load time you are experiencing right now is the argument.

06 — About

Why Plattenbrand exists.

Behind Plattenbrand is Lennart Hämmerle — building websites since 2000: large portals like sixx.de and fem.com, online shops, years of coaching founders on WordPress at UnternehmerTUM in Munich, and countless projects for small businesses.

Across all those years, the same pattern kept showing: the systems were too big for what a small business actually needs. Updates overwhelmed the owners, maintenance ended up back with the agency — and everyone kept feeding a giant system that earned the business nothing. At some point it was clear: the customers are not the problem. The tooling is.

So today we build differently: every site custom-made on a modern, fast foundation without the update treadmill — with AI as a tool that keeps paths short and prices fair. “In more than 25 years I have never built websites as good as the ones we build now,” Lennart says about this way of working — and he means it literally: faster, cleaner, and more carefree than anything before.

And the why is clear: the small businesses. Recommendations have moved online and the yellow pages have lost their meaning — whoever is not properly represented on the web simply does not exist for new customers. We want the local craftsman and the practice next door to hold their ground: well represented, findable, without having to take care of any of it. Your contact is Lennart Hämmerle personally; the studio sits in Tutzing on Lake Starnberg, with a full legal imprint including the trade register. Everything runs in writing — distance does not matter.

07 — FAQ

Answered before you have to ask.

The questions we hear most often — answered honestly.

How much does a website cost?

A complete static website is €950 one-off plus €20/month for hosting and care. Sites with an admin area (manage content yourself) start at €1,900. All prices plus VAT. No hidden costs, no quote ping-pong — and you see your site finished before you pay. No upfront payment.

How long does it take?

Usually a few days from request to finished site — not weeks or months. You see the result live in your browser and then decide in your own time.

Do I need to meet you in person?

No. Everything runs in writing — request, coordination, approval. Our clients are based across Germany and abroad; distance plays no role.

What about data protection?

Your website is hosted in Germany, GDPR-compliant and without a cookie banner. Imprint and privacy policy come fully set up, and the contact form only stores what is needed to handle your enquiry.

What if I don’t like the site?

Then you pay nothing. That’s the core promise: we build your site first, you see it finished — and only buy it if you like it. No justification, no negotiation.

How does the domain work?

Your finished site first goes live at its own demo address — that’s where you review it before paying anything. Once you’ve paid, we move it to your domain. If you already have one, you keep it, of course: your provider only needs to change one setting — we tell you word for word which one. If you don’t have one yet, we register your preferred domain for you; common endings like .de or .com are even included.

Who takes care of updates and changes later?

The technical side is fully covered by the €20/month: hosting, security, backups and stack updates — and thanks to the static stack there are no plugin updates or security-hole treadmill like WordPress. Content changes after completion follow clear rules: small, clearly defined tweaks — a changed text or a swapped image — cost a flat €39. Bigger changes get a fixed-price quote up front, and for a complete redesign we give you a 30% discount on the regular price of a new site. So you always know the cost before we start. All prices plus VAT.
