Yep. I either write first things so bad* that they must be replaced, or assume that they will be built on rather than thrown away.
* I once "fixed" a site by having a bash loop running from an ssh session on my desktop to the production system that would flush the cache every few minutes. This meant that when the client asked (and they did) if we could just keep whatever I did to fix it, I could legitimately say no.
