Structural Engineers for Extensions
We understand the value of expert advice exactly when and where you need it.
Structural Engineer Designs, Drawings & Calculations
The Home Engineers are a leading engineering consultancy dedicated to providing engineering services across domestic alterations and residential projects.
Before your extension can get underway, we undertake the tasks needed to ensure the process of your new addition is smooth sailing.
We take care of the structural design which includes provision of structural calculations and engineering drawings to ensure you create the most efficient design and build possible.
What To Expect From Us
Our structural engineers become a seamless addition to your project’s team. Working alongside architects, designers and the on-site team, we’ll aim to craft a lasting extension that is equally stylish and compliant, as it is safe and secure.
Our structural engineers bring over 10 years of expertise and unique experience across commercial, residential, offshore and artistic projects. By working with us, you can expect:
Initial assessment
Initially we will review your Architectural drawings to understand the structural implications associated with the proposed extension. We would then be able to provide an accurate quotation and set out our scope of services for the project.
Structural design
Your dedicated structural engineer will consider the proposals and plan the proposed structural design as well as reviewing any other considerations or challenges that may be associated with the extension. At this stage we would attend site if we deemed necessary. Our structural design would be delivered in the form of structural calculations and detailed engineering drawings that would be suitable for submission to Building Control and suitable for your appointed Contractor to work from.
Expertise informed by experience
Our approach and delivery are ensured to be of the highest standard.
Speed without compromising on quality
We pride ourselves on our rapid responses to queries and quotes. This is because we understand the need to move quickly when a project steamrolls ahead.
On your side support
Our engineers will have your back throughout each phase if required. This entails site inspections, assistance with site queries and liaison with design team and contractor if needed.

Look for qualifications, experience with similar projects, positive reviews, and professional accreditation.
Yes, especially for project’s alterations or extensions to ensure the safety and compliance of your project.
The architect usually comes first to create the design, and then the structural engineer is brought in to verify structural integrity.
Involve a structural engineer from the get-go within the planning phase to flag any structural concerns early in the project.
The architect typically comes first to design the project, followed by the structural engineer to ensure it can be built safely.
Ideally, the architect will design the layout and aesthetics, while the structural engineer will calculate and ensure the structure’s safety and feasibility to achieve the desired proposals.
You need both; the structural engineer designs, calculates and ensures the project’s integrity, while the builder constructs the design.
A structural engineer must ensure the extension is structurally sound and meets all UK building and site safety standards.
The cost can vary depending on your project’s size and complexity, therefore every project is priced individually.
