Astra repair
You chose Astra to be fast and light. The repair should honor that.
Astra sites break politely — a header that stopped sticking, customizer changes that won't apply, a Pro module quarreling with a plugin. The repairs are equally surgical, and the theme's speed survives them.
Astra's design, and where it cracks.
Astra's whole philosophy is a light core extended by pieces: the free theme, Astra Pro's modules (header/footer builder, custom layouts, hooks), a companion page builder, and usually a starter template that stamped the initial design. Its failures live at those joints. The header/footer builder is the most active fault line — sticky headers that stop sticking, transparent headers going opaque, mobile menus misbehaving after an update. Custom layouts and hooks misfiring are next: content appearing twice, or vanishing from the spot it was hooked into.
Customizer-changes-not-applying is the classic polite failure: Astra generates its styling dynamically, and an aggressive cache or minifier serves the stale version — the change saved; the delivery didn't. It's the same species as Divi's static-CSS ailment, with Astra's own cure order.
The Astra-specific bench.
Header/footer builder repairs are markup-and-settings work — restoring the built header's logic without flattening it back to defaults. Pro-module conflicts get the evidence-first treatment: modules are toggleable individually, so the fault isolates cleanly once the logs point a direction. Starter-template damage — where a re-import or partial import scrambled the design — is recovery work: what survives in the customizer and widgets gets kept; what the import ate gets rebuilt precisely rather than re-stamped wholesale.
And because Astra usually rides with a builder, we diagnose the pair honestly: half of 'Astra problems' are actually the builder's, and the fix goes where the fault is.
Keeping the lightness — the point of Astra.
An Astra site accumulating heavyweight plugins to patch each quirk ends up weighing what Astra was chosen to avoid. Our repairs stay in the theme's spirit: settings over plugins, hooks over page-builder patches, and a note when something you're carrying is fighting the theme's speed. Astra passing Core Web Vitals is very achievable — it's the theme's home turf, and repairs shouldn't take it off that turf.
The Astra failure catalog.
Light theme, specific joints — each repairable without the bloat.
Header/footer builder
Sticky, transparent, and mobile header failures — the built header restored, not flattened.
Customizer not applying
Saved changes stuck behind stale generated CSS — the cache order fixed for good.
Hooks & custom layouts
Content doubling or vanishing at hook points — the layout logic repaired.
Astra Pro module conflicts
Modules vs. plugins, isolated cleanly and refereed.
Starter-template damage
Re-imports that scrambled the design — recovered precisely, not re-stamped.
Speed preservation
Repairs that keep Astra light — settings over plugins, always.
Single Error Fix — buy it now, skip the hunt.
One error, hunted down and fixed — 500s, white screens, redirect loops, broken pages.
Covers one specific error or broken behavior on one site. Diagnosis, the fix, and a plain-English note on what happened. If we can't fix it, you get a full refund.
Questions we hear a lot.
My customizer changes save but nothing happens. Astra's fault?
Usually the delivery, not the theme: Astra's generated CSS is being cached or minified upstream, so your saved change never reaches visitors. Clearing the right layers in the right order fixes it; configuring them properly keeps it fixed. Five-minute diagnosis, same-day fix.
My header broke after an update — sticky and transparent both gone. Recoverable?
Yes — built headers live in settings and markup, and updates occasionally jostle both. We restore the built behavior rather than resetting to a default header, which is the difference between a repair and a shrug.
Is it Astra or my page builder misbehaving?
The eternal pairing question, and it isolates cleanly: Astra owns the frame (headers, footers, layout hooks, global styles); the builder owns the content within. Where the symptom lives points at the owner, and the logs confirm. You get one fix, aimed correctly.
What does Astra repair cost?
Most single-fault repairs land at the $229 flat fix, same-day. Template-damage recoveries get a written flat quote after we see what survived. Speed always preserved — that part costs nothing extra because it's method, not effort.
