Load-bearing wall removal
Opening up a kitchen, dining room or hallway? We work out what the wall is carrying, design the beam and supports to take it, and give you the calculations and drawings your Building Warrant needs.

Loft conversions
Turning a loft into a room changes how the roof and floor work. We design the new floor, any dormer and the steelwork or timber needed to keep the roof up once the old supports are moved.

House extensions
From a single-storey kitchen extension to a new build, we design the foundations, walls, roof and the new opening into your home, with the calculations your Building Warrant needs.
