Custom PHP Design has been building and maintaining production PHP systems since 2008. We provide custom PHP development and Laravel consulting for long-lived applications that need to stay online, evolve safely, and remain understandable years after launch.

Custom PHP Development Services Built for Reliable Growth

Get tailored application development, Laravel consulting, modernization, integrations, and production support from a senior-led team focused on software that stays useful and maintainable.

Founders planning a product launch can also review our SaaS MVP development with Laravel and PHP page for startup-focused application work.

Laravel Applications

Applications that are easy to extend, safe to update, and predictable to maintain— with clean architecture, reliable data migrations, background jobs, and well-designed APIs.

Serverless Architecture

Event-driven systems designed to scale automatically, reduce operational overhead, and isolate failures — using AWS Lambda where it makes sense, not by default.

Legacy Modernization

Incremental modernization of legacy PHP systems — reducing risk, improving security, and extending system lifespan without disruptive rewrites or downtime.

AWS Cloud Management

Operational ownership of AWS environments — EC2, ECS, and RDS — focused on uptime, cost awareness, and predictable performance in production.

Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps

Infrastructure designed as code — with observability, repeatable environments, and clear failure boundaries — supporting containerized and serverless platforms without locking teams into brittle workflows.

Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD)

CI/CD pipelines built for predictable releases — automated checks, clear promotion paths, and safe rollbacks — using GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket.

AWS Email Forwarding

Reliable domain email forwarding with AWS SES, S3, Lambda, and Route53 for teams that want professional aliases without paying for extra mailboxes.
