Residential

Structural Design

Whether you are looking to create an opening in an internal wall or create a new home from scratch, our experienced team can offer specialist advice on all aspects of residential structures to ensure compliance with the latest building codes and regulations.

Structural Surveys

We are regularly recommended by local estate agents and national insurance companies to undertake structural surveys for mortgage purposes, while we also provide reassurance to homeowners where defects have arisen in their homes. Our extensive experience in structural design and building construction allows us to carry out structural surveys on all types of residential buildings.

Civil Drainage

We work closely with our clients from initial concept stage through to detailed construction and completion stages. Our civil and drainage designs include road and footpath design, drainage strategy reports, detailed drainage design, sewer permit applications and sewer adoptions.

FOUL & SURFACE WATER DRAINAGE DESIGN:

Our designs utilise sustainable drainage solutions (SuDS) which consider the needs of your development and are fully modelled to safely manage surface water run-off in accordance with the latest standards and guidance. We also undertake foul drainage design from feasibility to construction.

Designs are fully adoptable and in compliance with building regulations.

FLOOD RISK ASSESSMENTS:

Flood Risk Assessments (FRA) are an increasingly important part of any building project due to the changing climate and pressure to utilize more land in previously undeveloped areas. Our FRA’s follow industry standard guidance to identify and evaluate potential sources of flood risk to your specific site ensuring your development is safe and compliant with flood risk legislation at the planning stage.

Nutrient Neutrality

Introduced by Natural England in Cumbria in March 2022, Nutrient Neutrality (NN) is required to be achieved in all developments where there is seen to be a risk of increased nutrient pollution within at risk catchment areas.

Our engineering team work closely with local authorities, clients and planning consultants to produce NN assessments and mitigation schemes of varying scales for residential and commercial developments.
