Structural Engineering
Many refurbishment projects require the skills and expertise of a structural engineer. Whether adding bi-fold doors to the rear of your house or making changes to the internal layout, such as removing structural walls, a structural engineer is essential.
If you need structural steel or other structural elements designed as part of your project, please get in touch. Our Panel Engineers are tried and tested through the delivery of numerous projects and trusted for their sage advice and precise calculations, drawings and designs.
With our engineers working in conjunction with our architectural team, we can provide a complete set of construction drawings for any structural system, whether a single beam or a multi-component configuration.
Use our form to submit your project details, and we will return a price for you to complete the structural elements.
