About Us

---

I’m a structural engineer with 25 years of experience specialising in small residential projects such as extensions, loft conversions, and internal alterations.

If you contact me, you’ll be dealing directly with the engineer doing the work — not a sales team or a junior passing information along. That means clear answers, consistent advice, and a much smoother experience overall.

For most homeowners, structural engineering is unfamiliar territory. You may be asking:

• Do I actually need a structural engineer?
• What will Building Control require?
• Will this delay my project?
• How much will it cost?

My role is to guide you through those questions clearly and honestly, so you can move forward with confidence.

I provide practical structural designs and calculations that are:

• Suitable for domestic construction
• Accepted by Building Control
• Easy for builders to follow

I work almost exclusively on houses and residential renovations. That means I understand:

• How homes are actually built
• The constraints of working in existing properties
• Typical builder methods and expectations
• What causes delays — and how to avoid them

Your project won’t be treated as “too small”. It’s exactly the kind of work I do every day.

I aim to make the process as stress-free as possible by offering:

• Clear explanations in plain English
• Sensible, buildable solutions
• Prompt communication
• Honest advice about what is — and isn’t — required

If something isn’t necessary, I’ll say so. If there’s a simpler way to achieve the same outcome, I’ll recommend it.

I regularly work alongside:

• Architects
• Builders
• Design & build companies
• Building Control officers

This helps ensure the structural design supports the overall project, rather than becoming a bottleneck.

If you’re planning an extension, loft conversion, or internal alteration and need structural advice or calculations, feel free to get in touch.

I’m happy to discuss your plans and explain what’s required before you commit.
