Deep Regional Experience
Central London, Midlands and the North West operate as very different markets. We appreciate these regional nuances, which are critical factors throughout design, specification, and procurement.

Services
(What we do)
01
Facade Engineering
Manage risk, align aesthetics with performance, achieve ambitious environmental targets, and secure maximum value from your external envelope. As façade engineers, we investigate and diagnose issues, develop robust maintenance and replacement strategies, and help ensure compliance. Built on a sustainability-first, cradle-to-cradle philosophy, we support every stage—from design, specification, analysis and material selection, through to installation and long-term care.
Design Intent & Performance Specification
Prescriptive Design & Specification for Gateway 2
Development of Employers Requirements (ERs)
Contractors Proposals (CP) Support
Procurement
Product Development
Diagnostic & Fault Finding
Defect Liability Period Inspections
Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) Support
FRAEWs
02
Facade Structural Engineering
Facade structural engineering is crucial to overall building safety and compliance, and a key focus of the Building Safety Act. We engineer from the ground up using industry-leading tools to properly assess load paths and support principles, either at early design stages or during construction. Our construction stage services, typically provided to specialist subcontractors or main contractors, benefit from our insight as facade consultants. We deliver tailored deliverables to ensure ease of approval and maintain programme targets. For existing assets, we can provide inspections and reverse engineering services to help validate installed components or unlock adaptive reuse in retrofit and refurbishment projects. This includes supporting Building Safety Cases.
• Rainscreen Systems (various materials)
• Stick Curtain Walling
• Unitised curtain walling
• Timber composite systems
• Steel, Glass, Aluminium

Building Physics
The journey to Net Zero is driving very high levels of performance in the external envelope. The key to achieving ambitious targets is in the efficient design of the building fabric, of which the losses from thermal bridging can be significant. New Part L also requires that PSI values actually be assessed. As facade engineers we understand details and materials, and as a result are best place to undertake this analysis and advise on adjustments to details to extract improvements. Ultimately providing the Client with a more energy efficient design with lower carbon footprint. Our services include; Full Part L/SAP PSI value calculations 2D & 3D Thermal (U-value) Analysis Surface and Interstitial Condensation Risk Assessment
• 1D/2D Thermal Analysis
• 3D Thermal Analysis
• PSI/CHI value calculation
• Condensation Risk
04
Technical Due Diligence (TDD)
Technical expertise, in-depth design analysis, and market insight dedicated to reducing costs and managing risk. Comprehensive façade knowledge spanning performance, service life, operating costs, compliance, and safety—giving you the clarity and confidence to buy or sell.
• Acquisition & Vendor
• Pre-Tender / Tender
• Handover
• Compliance Monitoring
05
Expert Advisory
When things don’t go quite right, we can provide expert advice on most aspects of façade engineering, design and consultancy. Whether it is dilapidations, insurance, defect analysis, warranty review, product guarantee or technical assessment of variations, through to full Expert Witness commissions – we are here to support you.
