Clear calculations and properly specified structural steelwork also help builders understand exactly what is required before construction begins.
Structural Engineers for Extensions & Conversions
Extensions and conversions often require carefully designed structural solutions to safely connect new and existing parts of a property.
Our structural engineers provide support for:
- Rear extensions
- Side extensions
- Double-storey extensions
- Loft conversions

We consider the existing structure, proposed alterations and loading requirements to develop practical structural solutions that can be incorporated into the wider construction project.
Structural Surveys
A structural survey can provide valuable information when you're concerned about movement, cracking, deterioration or other potential structural issues.
We can provide professional advice and structural assessment for properties requiring further investigation, helping identify potential problems and determine appropriate next steps.
Our structural survey services can support:
- Crack investigations
- Structural movement assessments
- Property condition assessments
- Subsidence-related concerns
- Structural alterations
- Older and period properties
- Pre-construction assessments
For wider property planning, development and project advice, our Property Consultancy service can provide additional support before building work begins.
RSJ & Steel Beam Design
Removing a load-bearing wall or creating a large structural opening will often require an RSJ or other structural steel beam.
We provide structural calculations and beam specifications to establish the appropriate structural solution for the project. Where required, Steadfast SES can also undertake the associated building work, including wall removal, temporary support, padstone installation and RSJ installation.
This provides clients with a streamlined service from structural design through to construction.
