We offer our Clients an extended and consolidated comprehensive service, both technically and geographically. Economy of design and Client attentiveness, at senior level, from conception to completion is fundamental to company ethos.

Both our offices are registered bodies with Structural Engineers Ltd (SER), with SER Registered Certifiers employed across the Practice, to undertake the full certification procedure required under the Scottish Building Regulations.
