New builds, rescues and upgrades
Most PHP work falls into three kinds. New builds: a website, portal or internal tool written from scratch. Rescues: a site that broke, a developer who disappeared, code nobody wants to touch. Upgrades: moving old code to a supported PHP version, adding features, or making it fast and secure.
Each starts the same way: read the code or the brief, agree the outcome, and quote a flat fee for it. Code is written to be readable by the next developer, versioned with Git and handed over in full.
The background is a B.S. in Computer Science with a cybersecurity minor from Florida Atlantic University, which is why input validation, authentication and secure payments are treated as part of the job rather than extras.
What’s included

Security hardening
Input validation, prepared statements, CSRF protection and security headers.
Frequently asked questions
Do you charge hourly?
No. Each piece of work is quoted as a flat fee after a free consultation, so you know the cost before anything starts.
Can you work on code another developer wrote?
Yes. Existing code is reviewed first; if it is sound it is extended, and if it is not you get an honest view of whether fixing or rebuilding costs less.
Do you work with frameworks like Laravel?
Most work here is framework-free PHP, which keeps sites fast and simple to host. Existing framework projects are reviewed case by case during the consultation.
Is it you doing the work?
Yes. You deal directly with Jacob Campbell, the developer, from consultation to handover.
