Services
Mechanical & Electrical Services
We design and specify mechanical and electrical systems for buildings, including heating, ventilation, plumbing, lighting, and power distribution. Our solutions prioritise energy efficiency and regulatory compliance while ensuring occupant comfort. By integrating smart technologies, we deliver systems that reduce operational costs and environmental impact.
Sustainable Design Consultancy
Our sustainability consultants provide net-zero strategies, thermal modelling, and compliance assessments for planning applications. We use dynamic simulation tools to optimise building performance, focusing on insulation, airtightness, and renewable energy integration to meet evolving environmental standards.
BIM Modelling
We employ Building Information Modelling (BIM) to create detailed 3D digital representations of structures. This enables collaborative project management, clash detection, and lifecycle analysis, improving accuracy and efficiency from design through to construction and maintenance phases.
Thermal Dynamic Modelling
Using advanced software, we simulate building thermal performance to optimise heating, cooling, and ventilation systems. This process ensures compliance with Part L regulations, reduces energy consumption, and enhances occupant comfort through data-driven design decisions.
Fire Safety Systems
We design comprehensive fire safety systems, including detection, suppression, and emergency lighting. Our solutions comply with current regulations and are tailored to building type, ensuring occupant safety and minimal disruption during emergencies.
