One thing I've learned from being a freelance PHP developer is just how many ways people can write code. Nearly every system I've worked on has been completely different, even though there are standardised / best practice ways of doing things (and have been for some time).

I try and incrementally standardise things as I go along, but unfortunately there isn't a well-supported PHP framework that makes it easy to adopt from an existing codebase - they tend to assume you use them from day 1.
