PHP application support and server tuning
- We support it
- We run it for clients
- We build with it
- We use it ourselves
PHP powers WordPress, Laravel and a lot of the custom applications businesses quietly depend on. We keep PHP applications running, tune the servers underneath them, and modernise the ones that need it.
The relationship
How we work with PHP
- Support
We support it
Fatal errors, memory limits, timeouts, extensions that go missing after an upgrade, and code that stopped working on a newer PHP version.
- Managed
We run it for clients
PHP-FPM tuning, version management, opcache and the server configuration around PHP on managed hosting.
- Build
We build with it
Custom PHP and Laravel work for applications that need a feature, an integration or a fix.
- In-house
We use it ourselves
Our own client portal is a Laravel application, so PHP is what we run in production ourselves, not just what we support.

PHP problems we fix
You don’t need to know the technical name for it. Tell us what’s happening, and we’ll work out what needs attention.
-
“The site broke after a PHP version upgrade.”
Deprecated functions and removed extensions. We patch the code for the new version, or pin a supported one while we do.
-
““Allowed memory size exhausted”, or timeouts.”
We find the request that’s eating memory or time and fix it, rather than raising the limits forever.
-
“502s or slow responses under load.”
PHP-FPM pool sizing, opcache and slow-request logging.
-
“Database queries are the bottleneck.”
We profile the queries, add the right indexes and fix the N+1 patterns.
-
“Security warnings about an old PHP version.”
An upgrade plan, testing in staging, and the code changes needed to get there.
-
“A legacy application, no documentation, original developer gone.”
We read it, document it, get it under version control and keep it running while you decide its future.
Something else with PHP? Tell us about it.
Questions we get
PHP, answered plainly
Which PHP frameworks do you work with?
WordPress and Laravel most, plus plenty of custom code. If it’s something else, ask.
Can you upgrade us from an old PHP version?
Yes. We test on the target version in staging first and fix what breaks before touching production.
Do you host PHP applications?
Yes, on managed servers we run, with PHP tuned for the application.
Do you work with Python too?
Yes. The directory lists the languages and frameworks we work with.
Start the conversation
Got a PHP headache?
Tell us what’s giving you trouble, or what you’d like to stop managing yourself. You don’t need a technical brief. A few sentences is a good place to start.
