MIGRATION & MODERNIZATION

Being told you need to upgrade Drupal, and not sure what that actually involves?

Whether it's a Drupal 7 to modern Drupal migration or a version bump from 9/10 to 11, upgrades touch core, contributed modules, custom code, themes, and infrastructure all at once. GURUS never quotes a substantial upgrade blind: every project starts with discovery.


Who this is for


What GURUS can do

Core & version upgrades

Drupal version upgrades, including Drupal 9/10 to Drupal 11.

Compatibility remediation

Contributed and custom module compatibility, deprecated code remediation, and theme modernization.

Infrastructure modernization

PHP upgrades, Composer modernization, database compatibility, and deployment modernization.

Dependency cleanup

Removing accumulated technical debt so the site is maintainable going forward, not just current.


What the engagement looks like

Every substantial upgrade begins with a paid assessment. Quoting blind on legacy Drupal code is how projects go over budget. If GURUS performs the resulting upgrade, the assessment fee is credited toward the implementation contract.

  1. 01Drupal Upgrade Assessment & Roadmap: current-state summary, blockers, and risks.
  2. 02You receive a recommended upgrade path and an implementation estimate.
  3. 03If you proceed, GURUS executes the upgrade against that defined scope.
  4. 04The assessment fee is credited toward the implementation project.

Pricing

Assessment: $1,500. Implementation starting at $6,000

More complex upgrades, involving heavy custom code, integrations, or migrations, typically range $10,000–$25,000+.

Why GURUS

Upgrade work rewards someone who has lived through Drupal's evolution firsthand, from Drupal 7 through modern Drupal, and can tell the difference between a routine module update and a genuine architectural risk before it derails a timeline.
