The challenge

Client was hacked twice and suffered crashes under previous management. Server-side PHP conflicts repeatedly caused fatal crashes. The archive of sold properties, which would be very hard to recreate, was at risk.

What we did

Removed around 17 unused demo pages and resolved host-side PHP version conflicts that were causing repeated crashes.

Created an isolated development environment to execute a clean theme reinstall.

Migrated 5,000+ property images and rebuilt the latest listings manually to eliminate inherited bugs.

The outcome

A clean staging site that is a 98–100% match of the live site, ready to launch.
