If you’re removing a wall, adding a loft, extension, or altering anything structural, you’ll likely need a structural engineer to provide calculations for Building Control and your builder. We help make this part simple.

Not always. We can give a good indication, but confirmation ideally happens on-site by a builder or during strip-out. If in doubt, we offer a Load-Bearing Wall Investigation service.

Our quotes always state what’s included and excluded. Typically, we provide:

• Structural calculations for Building Control.
• Marked-up sketches if needed for your builder.
• One free revision.

We don’t usually include:

• Site visits (unless requested).
• Retaining wall or foundation analysis unless clearly specified.
• Detailed fabrication drawings.

Yes, we offer optional site visits, usually booked separately. These are useful if the structure is unclear or if your builder/Building Control requests one.

Once we have everything we need (final drawings, brief, payment), most jobs are completed within 5 working days. We’ll always confirm if anything’s likely to take longer.

We’ll revise or add extra details if needed. In most cases, a Minor Change Request will cover it, unless the change is major. We’ll advise the most efficient route.

No – we provide the documents you or your architect can submit. Most Building Control teams are happy with our format, but we can tweak things if needed.

That’s fine. You can still get a quote now, and we’ll keep it on file. Most quotes are valid for at least 30 days, and we can often honour the price beyond that if scope doesn’t change.

We don’t issue warranties, but our calculations are signed by qualified engineers and accepted by Building Control. If your lender needs a certificate, let us know—we can advise the best approach.

Our standard service covers design calculations only. We don’t supply fabrication drawings unless requested as an add-on. Most fabricators can work from our beam specs and sketches.
