Legacy PHP & Framework Rescue / Consultation
If you’ve got an older PHP product that’s been running for years, you already know the truth:
It still makes money (or saves it) - but nobody wants to touch it.
This service is for teams who need to keep a legacy system alive, stable, and safe without burning huge money rebuilding everything overnight.
I specialize in:
- Old PHP products that have no clear owner
- Legacy monoliths that are “too big to rewrite right now”
- Deprecated frameworks / “abandoned by original dev” situations
- Legacy Laravel projects
What I do
| Area | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Code Health | Make the code buildable, bootable, testable again. |
| Proper Version Control | Convert “FTP in production” into real Git with meaningful history. |
| Safe / Modern Hosting | Move from ancient servers into sane hosting . |
| Error Tracking + Observability | Add Sentry / better logs so you know when stuff breaks before users do. |
| Upgrade Pathfinding | If you want to upgrade to modern Laravel or another framework - I map the safest + most realistic path + make introductions to who can do it. |
| Graceful Offboarding | If the product is being sunset - I can architect a clean way to archive, migrate data, or retire it. |
This is NOT “rewrite from scratch” consulting
This is specialized “life support for legacy PHP” - keep the thing alive, reduce the blast radius, and buy time for smart decision making.
Who this is perfect for
- Founders whose main product is legacy and still paying the bills
- Agencies that inherited a client system from 2013 and are scared to touch it
- Internal teams who need a guide to get from “ancient PHP” → “modern Laravel” without nuking everything
If your legacy PHP system still matters — but nobody wants to be responsible for it — that’s exactly what this consultation is built for.
