strtotime() is your friend here. It will parse all kinds of input and give you a time using plain English.

echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('+15 minutes'))

In this case, you can pass the timestamp as a second paramater to strtotime(): date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('+15 minutes', $timestamp))... assuming the time is stored in the database as an integer. If it's in the format YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss then use @stillstanding's code.
