Services
Structural Engineering
Our structural engineering team delivers code-compliant solutions for residential and commercial projects, including foundation design, basement underpinning, and complex steelwork calculations. Using Tekla Structural Designer and Autodesk software, we ensure safety, durability, and cost-efficiency while adhering to UK building regulations. Clients benefit from tailored advice during feasibility stages and site inspections to optimise project outcomes.
CAD Design
We provide 2D and 3D CAD drafting services for architects and developers, specialising in accurate plans for extensions, loft conversions, and new builds. Our designs integrate seamlessly with client templates, ensuring clarity for builders and planners. With over 300 residential conversion projects completed, we combine technical precision with practical space optimisation to meet budgetary and timeline constraints.
BIM Modelling
Our BIM services enhance collaboration across construction projects by creating detailed digital twins for structural analysis. This technology-driven approach reduces errors, streamlines workflows, and improves cost predictability for developers and steel fabricators. We support full lifecycle modelling from concept to execution, ensuring alignment with industry standards like ISO 19650.
House Conversions
Specialising in loft conversions, basement designs, and single/multi-storey extensions, we provide structural packages including calculations and Building Control submissions. Our remote engineering option reduces fees by 20-30% through digital assessments using client-provided photos and floor plans, ensuring swift approvals without compromising safety or compliance.
Steelwork Fabrication
We produce detailed fabrication drawings and value-engineered solutions for steel manufacturers, covering connections, frames, and reinforcement. Our team collaborates directly with fabricators to optimise material selection and assembly processes, ensuring cost-effective delivery of complex structural elements for commercial and industrial projects.

Our loft conversion has been a long and sometimes difficult journey. Martin has worked with us to ensure that our plans and dreams could be achieved. He is the hardest worker I have met during this project and am so grateful for how he has helped us to balance design and safety.
