House extensions are one of the most common projects undertaken in residential structural engineering and our role in delivering your new domestic development is to guarantee the integrity of your plans so that your home improvement leaves a lasting impression.
When working on a new extension we’ll run through several considerations to aid the smooth delivery of your project. This can include; evaluating the location of the extension, assessing the foundations and ground on the proposed site, determining the appropriate materials and identifying the optimal positioning of load-bearing walls, windows and other features.
The support of our structural engineers will also help you towards obtaining planning permission for your project by ensuring adherence to the local building control regulations.
Benefits of using a structural engineer for house remodeling and renovations
House remodeling and renovations should not just be about aesthetics; but also focus on functionality and structural integrity. Our approach is a blend of design and engineering, to ensure that every extension not only enhances the visual appeal but also stands as a testament to quality craftsmanship.
We can provide detailed drawings and precise calculations to produce designs that not only meet your requirements but also comply with relevant building regulations and codes of practice. Too often, people learn about the need for structural support too late in the process and leave themselves open to increased extension costs.
By using IE Engineering you benefit from:
- Project cost savings: the implementation of minor design changes can save you money on materials, project scheduling and future maintenance costs
- Professional Impact Assessment: we evaluate the potential impact of an extension, considering factors like beam deflection, construction techniques and foundation sizing to prevent issues like wall cracking
- Design scrutiny: we see how the size and shape of an extension may influence design calculations to help identify complications and anticipate costs
- Regulatory help: we’ll support your application to ensure your project plans meet with our local building regulations
- Quality work: our team of experts have years of experience delivering successful house extensions across North Wales on homes that keep their stability and longevity
"When you are choosing to expand or renovate your living spaces, our structural engineers can bring a mix of expertise and creativity. We work with you to create spaces with purpose and innovation that adhere to all the right building regulations and provide you a home that matches your evolving needs.”
