Not every website needs a rebuild
In web development, most people focus on the big budgets. New sites, complex applications, projects with deadlines, changing requirements, and a handover when it’s done. Then the client gets an invoice, and the team moves on.
But what happens months or years later when something breaks?
Websites aren’t finished the day they go live. Code ages, packages get abandoned, plugins built by different developers introduce security problems, server architectures upgrade, and platforms move forward. Your website is your number one marketing channel or your primary sales tool, it should be maintained regularly.
The reality for many business owners
If you lose heating, you call a plumber. If the lights go out, you get an electrician. But when a contact form stops working or your homepage shows a server error, there’s no one obvious to call.
In many cases, the original developer isn’t around anymore. Or they’ve moved on to bigger work. Maybe there were disagreements, or maybe they just don’t pick up small jobs. You’re left with a problem that no one wants to take on.
That’s where I help.
My mission
Over the years, I’ve seen a gap in the market for people who look after websites, not just build them. Most developers prefer greenfield projects. I like the kind of work where you come in, fix something, and make someone’s life easier.
I believe maintenance matters. It might not be glamorous, but it’s valuable. I believe fixing the small things keeps your website – and your business – strong.
If your site is broken, unstable, or just confusing to work with, I’m here to help you get it back under control.
Behind PHPfixer
I’m a senior software developer with 24 years of hands-on experience, mostly working with PHP and modern web tech. I've built and maintained everything from content-heavy websites to complex backend systems — including a lot of legacy projects that needed stability and care.
I work well in messy environments, and I’m comfortable modernising old code without rewriting everything from scratch. I believe in simplicity, clear communication, and writing software that lasts.
