Why it happens
Certificates now last a maximum of 200 days (since 15 March 2026), dropping to 100 days in 2027. Any certificate renewed by hand will run out more often, and when it does browsers show a full-page warning that sends customers away. Domains lapse when the card on the registrar account expires or the reminder goes to an old email address.
We find where your domain, DNS and certificates actually live, fix what's broken, set certificates to renew automatically, and leave you a plain note of where everything is and who has access.
What we fix
- 'Your connection is not private' or
NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALIDWe renew or replace the certificate and set it to renew automatically.
- Padlock missing or 'Not secure' on some pages
We fix the mixed content and redirects so every page loads securely.
- Domain expired: website and email both down
We work with the registrar to recover it, usually within its grace period, and turn on auto-renew.
- Website or email stopped after a DNS change or move
We rebuild the DNS records the website, email and other services need, and check each one works.
- Don't know who controls the domain
We trace the registrar and account holder and help you get it into your own name.

Can an expired domain be recovered?
Usually, if you act quickly. Most domains have a grace period after expiry when the owner can still renew. After that it gets harder and more expensive, so call us straight away.
Why does my certificate keep expiring?
Certificate lifetimes are getting shorter every year. A certificate renewed by hand will lapse more often, so we set yours to renew itself.
Will fixing DNS take my site offline?
We copy the working records first and change only what's broken, so things that work keep working.
