Most ambitious work to a Notting Hill house has a structural job at its heart: a steel to carry an opening, a floor strengthened for a new use, foundations adapted for an extension or basement, or repairs to a building that has moved over its long life. Get the structure right and everything above it is sound; get it wrong and the consequences are serious.
Period stucco houses add their own demands. Loads, wall types and foundations are rarely what a modern drawing would assume, so structural works have to be designed for the building as it actually is — with proper investigation, an engineer’s design and a written method, not assumptions.
We bring structural engineering in-house, so the design, the temporary works, the party wall awards and the build are coordinated rather than passed between firms. Every scheme is calculated, detailed, monitored where needed and signed off by Building Control, with honest budgets in pounds sterling.
