Services
Design, performance, compliance, existing-building surveys and technical advice from Newcastle upon Tyne.
Integrated design
Each service is planned with the space, energy, cost and information requirements of the wider project in view.
Design
Mechanical, electrical and public-health services developed from concept through delivery.
Heating, cooling, ventilation and controls
Mechanical design is framed around comfort, resilience and energy targets, then shaped for access, buildability and reliable operation.
Typical scope
Power, lighting, life safety and data infrastructure
Electrical design is coordinated with architecture, structure and procurement so power, lighting and specialist interfaces remain stable through handover.
Typical scope
Water, hot water, drainage and rainwater systems
Demand and quality assumptions are fixed early. Hot-water, drainage and hygiene layouts are then developed with access, buildability and continuity in mind.
Typical scope
Fire-alarm performance design and life-safety system coordination
MEP design is aligned to the approved fire strategy, with detection, alarm, emergency power and sprinkler interfaces managed from the outset.
Typical scope
Performance and compliance
Thermal, energy and comfort performance is tested before final design decisions are fixed.
Thermal comfort, daylight and building performance analysis
Option studies and thermal modelling validate comfort, overheating and energy outcomes before major design decisions are fixed.
Typical scope
SAP, SBEM and operational-energy assessment
SAP, SBEM, Part L and operational-energy assessments are produced from verified assumptions linked to live design decisions.
Typical scope
Existing buildings
Survey, investigation and asset records that support continuity and replacement decisions.
Condition, risk and replacement priorities for existing MEP assets
Surveys produce evidence on defects, condition risk, replacement timing and staged intervention across occupied buildings.
Typical scope
Investigation of building-services performance and operating issues
Available data and site observations are combined with project constraints to identify likely causes and practical next actions.
Typical scope
Structured MEP asset information for operation and replacement planning
Asset records are verified and structured so handover, operation and replacement planning are based on reliable information.
Typical scope
Project support
Coordination, cost inputs and technical review to keep decisions clear and actionable.
Spatial coordination, reviews and technical information
Interface resolution starts early so design development has clear ownership, route logic and decision points.
Typical scope
MEP cost inputs, option comparison and lifecycle observations
MEP-specific cost inputs are prepared early to support option selection, value engineering and cost-risk control.
Typical scope
Independent MEP advice for project, procurement and asset decisions
Focused support for feasibility, due diligence, design review, contractor proposals and project decision checkpoints.
Typical scope
Focused assessments
