Services
Building Consultancy
Our consultancy provides end-to-end engineering advice for sustainable building projects. We specialise in mechanical, electrical, and public health systems, ensuring compliance with zero-carbon standards. Clients benefit from tailored solutions addressing spatial coordination, energy efficiency, and long-term operational needs across commercial, residential, and public sector developments.
3D Coordination
We create 3D building models using clash detection software to streamline service installations. This approach prevents structural conflicts and visualises complex systems for client review. Deliverables include isometric layouts and virtual walkthroughs, enhancing clarity for installers and design teams during construction phases.
Operation Manuals
We produce comprehensive mechanical and electrical operation manuals for building lifecycle management. These user-friendly guides integrate schematics, specifications, and maintenance protocols. Digital formats enable easy access to records, ensuring efficient post-completion building operations and compliance with practical completion requirements.
CAD Services
Our CAD expertise delivers precise building services drawings for construction projects. We specialise in spatial coordination of HVAC, pipework, and electrical systems. The service supports clients with temporary workloads or those seeking to avoid permanent staffing costs, maintaining high standards across all technical outputs.
Project Coordination
We coordinate complete building service installations, including ventilation, plumbing, and electrical systems. By integrating 3D models with structural elements, we ensure seamless execution. This service reduces delays and costs associated with rework, providing clients with reliable, clash-free construction documentation.
