Everything we do is PHP.

We don't dabble in ten languages. We do PHP - properly - across the whole life of an application: building it, connecting it, speeding it up, securing it, maintaining it, and rescuing it when it's gone wrong.

Custom PHP applications

Web apps · internal tools · SaaS backends · dashboards

Bespoke applications built in modern, typed PHP. We design the architecture, write the tests, and ship something your own team can read and extend after we hand it over - not a black box only we understand.

Laravel & Symfony builds

Greenfield products · features · migrations · queues

Serious work on the frameworks that run serious PHP. We follow the framework's grain instead of fighting it - clean migrations, queues, events, and a structure the next developer will recognize on day one.

Legacy PHP rescue & modernization

PHP 5/7 → 8 · de-spaghetti · tests · framework migration

Our specialty. Inherited a scary codebase with no framework, no tests, PHP 5 on a dying server? We stabilize it, upgrade it, wrap it in tests and docs, and make it safe to change again - one careful step at a time.

Headline service

APIs & integrations

REST & GraphQL · webhooks · payments · third-party

The connective tissue between your PHP app and the rest of your stack. Auth, rate limits, retries and error handling done properly, so integrations don't quietly fail at 2am and lose you data.

Performance & scaling

Profiling · N+1 queries · caching · queues · indexes

Slow pages and apps that fall over under load. We profile the real bottleneck instead of guessing - database, caching, queues - and make it fast enough to stop being a complaint, with the numbers to prove it.

Security & hardening

Audits · injection/XSS · dependencies · auth

The things that get PHP apps breached: SQL injection, XSS, outdated dependencies, leaked secrets, weak auth. We find them, fix them, and tell you plainly what the real risk was - no scaremongering.

Maintenance & support

Retainers · patches · updates · small features

A retainer that keeps a senior engineer on call for your PHP app - security patches, dependency updates, small features and the occasional fire - without carrying a full-time developer on payroll.

WordPress & custom CMS

Custom plugins · themes · WooCommerce · Drupal

Custom plugins, themes and serious WordPress, WooCommerce and Drupal work - treated as real PHP engineering, not a page-builder. Performance, security and clean code, even on a CMS.

Our specialty

We inherit the codebases nobody wants to touch.

A developer left and took all the knowledge with them. It's PHP 5 on a server that's about to be switched off. There are no tests, no framework, and everyone is scared to deploy. This is exactly the work we like - and we do it without a rewrite-from-scratch unless that's genuinely the right call.

Rescue work is always scoped after a paid code audit. Nobody can honestly quote a codebase they haven't read - so we read it first, then tell you what it really needs.

Rescue my codebase

  • PHP 5.x / 7.x → PHP 8.x upgrades, one safe step at a time
  • No-framework spaghetti refactored into a structure you can change
  • A real test suite wrapped around code that currently has none
  • Security holes closed - injection, XSS, outdated dependencies
  • Framework migrations (CodeIgniter, Zend, custom → Laravel / Symfony)
  • Composer and dependency cleanup, dead code removed
  • Docs and onboarding notes, so it's not all in one person's head
  • A real deploy process instead of editing live files over FTP
Who we help

From a first build to a system that runs the company.

SaaS & web apps

The PHP application that is your product - built, extended, or made fast and stable enough to grow on. New features without new fragility.

E-commerce

Custom stores, WooCommerce and Magento fixes, checkout, payments and fulfillment integrations - the plumbing that quietly costs you sales when it breaks.

Agencies

White-label PHP delivery and rescue for client sites your own team can't staff or doesn't want to touch - handled cleanly, so it never lands back on you.

Startups

A real engineering hand to turn a prototype into a product, or a spreadsheet-and-email process into a proper internal app - without your first hire being a gamble.

Enterprises with legacy systems

The old internal PHP tool that still runs the company. We keep it alive, upgrade it safely, and document it so it stops being a single point of failure.
