Are you available for new Laravel projects right now?

Yes. We have current availability for new Laravel engagements and can typically start discovery within one to two weeks of contract signing.

How is Laravel work priced?

Hourly engagements bill at $125/hr. Fixed-bid projects are scoped during discovery and quoted in writing. Retainer arrangements are also available.

Do you respond to RFPs, formal procurement, or sole-source agreements?

Yes. We regularly respond to RFPs and can provide written quotes, statements of work, and references.

What is it like to hire a Laravel developer from White Whale Web?

Every engagement is led by a senior developer, not handed off to a junior after the sale. You get a named lead, a written scope, and direct communication throughout. We don't disappear when the project gets hard.

Can you take over an existing Laravel project?

Yes. We frequently inherit, audit, and continue Laravel projects from other teams. We start with a code and architecture audit so everyone knows what we are working with.

Can you integrate with third-party APIs and services?

Yes. We have built integrations with payment processors, marketing tools, government systems, and many others. We also build custom APIs.

Do you handle hosting?

We can recommend managed hosting or work with your existing environment. You own the application, the code, and the data.

Do you offer Laravel consulting without a full project commitment?

Yes. We can start with a code audit, an architecture review, or a scoped consulting engagement before any build work begins. It's a good fit if you've inherited a Laravel app and need an honest assessment of where things stand.

Do you do code review and CI/CD?

Yes. Both are standard on every Laravel engagement, not premium add-ons.

What documentation do we get?

Architecture notes, deployment instructions, environment setup, and user-facing documentation as needed. Documentation is written during the build, not after.

What happens after launch?

We offer hourly post-launch support, retainer development, or full maintenance contracts. We are a long-term partner, not a launch-and-leave vendor.

How experienced are your senior Laravel engineers?

Our Laravel work is led by senior developers with years of production experience across a range of industries and project types.

Custom Laravel Development From a Team You Can Trust

Secure and Scalable

Maintainable Code

Senior In-House Team

Before We Talk About Code, Let's Talk About the Real Problem.

Too many Laravel projects end the same way. A cheap shop or a one-person freelancer takes the contract, ships something that mostly works, and disappears. You're left with code nobody can read, a security model nobody documented, and a roadmap that just stopped. We've cleaned up enough of these projects to know it doesn't have to go that way.

Sound Familiar?

You inherited a Laravel app and nobody on your team can confidently maintain it
Your last developer disappeared and took the context with them
You are worried about security, scaling, or compliance but have no one to ask
Documentation is missing, thin, or wrong
Simple changes take weeks and cost more than they should
You need senior engineering, not a junior with confidence
Your application is mission-critical but has no continuity plan

A Better Website, Backed by Real Experience

Senior Engineering, Built to Outlast Us.

Our Laravel work is led by senior developers with years of production experience. Every project ships with documentation, CI/CD, automated checks, and code review built into the workflow. You shouldn't have to hope your developer sticks around. With us, the work stands on its own, and so does the team behind it.

Built For Compliance, Performance, and Peace of Mind

The Right Stack for Complex Work

When your application needs to scale, Laravel delivers. Strong security defaults, a mature ecosystem, and the flexibility to build the exact business logic your organization needs without fighting the framework.

A Team That Doesn't Disappear

Solo developers leave. We don't. Every Laravel engagement is staffed by a senior lead and supported by the broader White Whale team, with documentation and review built in from day one.

More Than Just Laravel

Accessibility expertise, in-house QA tooling, CI/CD, and a maintenance practice mean your application has a home long after launch.

Working With Us on Laravel

A recent project, current availability, and how we engage.

Recent Project — Skateboards.com

Silver Rockie, Boise Ad Federation 2025

We rebuilt a low-traffic dropship e-commerce store into a global digital platform connecting skaters with parks, shops, events, content, and community. Built on Laravel with custom integrations and a scalable architecture.

Current Availability

Senior Laravel capacity, open for new engagements

We have openings for new Laravel work and can typically start discovery within one to two weeks. Hourly, fixed-bid, or retainer.

How We Engage

Three ways to work together

Hourly at $125/hr. Fixed-bid for defined scopes. Retainer for ongoing partnership. Every engagement includes senior leadership, code review, CI/CD, and documentation.

Our Process Is Easy As 1-2-3!

Discovery and Scope

We sit down with your team to understand the application, the users, and the business goals. You get a clear written scope before any code is written.

Build With Senior Engineering

Your project is led by a senior Laravel developer with code review, CI/CD, and automated checks built into the workflow. Documentation is written as we go, not at the end. No surprises.

Launch and Long-Term Partnership

We don't disappear at launch. You get training, documentation, and an ongoing relationship for maintenance, enhancements, and future phases.

I would recommend them to anyone...

1 year ago we chose to meet with the team of White Whale Web to embark on a huge project. The website would contain important information for the legal profession. It was very important to us to have a very professional look and that the use of our website would be seamless. The White Whale team has every resource to make the entire process effortless. We have had such a good time with the entire team. I can feel that they are as invested as we are. We have been so happy with them and our website is amazing. They were very upfront with costs and time estimates. I also appreciate that they are very responsive to my emails and questions. I would recommend them to anyone who wants a first class website."

Aaron and his staff at White Whale Web are fantastic...

Aaron and his staff at White Whale Web are fantastic. You can count on them to do the job right and at a fair price. We have been using them for some time now and have never had any issues. We highly recommend them for their creativity, professionalism, and continued support of our website."

Government Land Sales, Owner

Creative, communicative, and deeply thoughtful...

We work with White Whale Web on several major projects throughout the year — Duck Club Presents, Shrine Social Club, Treefort Music Hall, and the massive Treefort Music Fest — and they crush it across the board. Treefort alone is an insanely complex festival with hundreds of artists, venues, schedules, filters — you name it! They worked with our marketing, design and app team to make the site intuitive, fast, and actually fun to use. Michael, Aaron and Emily are creative, communicative, and deeply thoughtful about both design and functionality. They don’t just “build” sites — they solve problems creatively, collaborate like true partners, and bring fully fledged visions and even half-baked ideas to life in ways that go beyond expectations and they're local, to boot! Can't recommend them enough!"
