Neil has not been to the moon, but he has supplied us with some amazing drawings for our extension, he was more than happy to listen to our thoughts and give us lots of options for our extension. The planning application went through in record time and Neil took care of everything for us. He was only slightly more expensive than others we spoke to but his standards are miles above the rest. Our builders have said that they do not need to think about the build as the instruction on our drawings are so easy to follow. Thank you Neil, much appreciated.

We had a really great experience working with this architect team. They were friendly, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the whole project. They listened carefully to our ideas, gave us practical advice, and suggested smart design solutions we hadn’t even considered. Their guidance really helped us make better decisions and avoid costly mistakes. The final result turned out even better than we expected, and the whole process felt smooth and stress-free. Definitely recommend them if you’re looking for creative architects who also give honest and helpful advice.

We were looking at mixed use property that had some serious structural issues, it was a significant size and therefore had a lot of potential layouts. Lee was very clear about how he could assist us, professional in his communication and in attending the property when he said he would. Ultimately we didn't proceed with the purchase due to the insight we gained from Lee and our survey but I would definitely recommend and use Lee in future.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Space Creation on the plans and building warrants for two projects: a new conservatory and a kitchen-to-garage conversion. From our very first conversation, I was impressed by their professionalism and expertise. They took the time to understand exactly what we wanted to achieve and offered insightful suggestions that saved us space and improved the flow of the room. The drawings they produced were incredibly detailed and precise, which our builder specifically complimented, and this made the subsequent steps in the process much smoother. The builders were quite pleased and even requested their details for other jobs. What really stood out, however, was the communication. Space Creation kept me informed at every stage, providing prompt updates and clearly explaining any technical details. This made what can often be a stressful process completely hassle-free. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Space Creation for any architectural planning or design work. They are a true expert who delivers fantastic results.

Great price, communication and general helpfulness. We feel so lucky that we found Ian. His communication was excellent the whole way through the project, letting us know when to expect documents etc. His quote helped us understand the whole process of applying for building regulations and all the costs that the renovations to the house would involve in these early stages. He also prepared a pricing document that we can give to builders to help us get an accurate quote for the works. We made several changes to the design and he accommodated each of these patiently and even prepared two designs so that we can compare the costs for both. He also included free site visits in his work. We're very happy to recommend him.

We commissioned Unit 3 to carry out concept designs, detailed design and technical design stages for a two story rear extension in Cheshire. The design brief was to have a combined living/kitchen space, create an extra bedroom and enlarge the existing bedrooms and family bathroom whilst creating lots of natural light. Martin's talent was evident from the concept sketches, exploring options we hadn't thought possible. After listening to our "must haves" and getting to the bottom of our lifestyle and daily routine, we soon developed our perfect design together. The quality of work has been exceptional and unlike some of the other architects we approached, Martin was able to turns designs into reality via 3D generated images. He even created an augmented reality of our house! Martin's professionalism and dedication to our project has made the design stage a real success. Meetings have been at times to suit our busy schedules, most being in the evenings or weekends at no extra cost. We have also met for a couple of drinks together at locations that have helped to inspire the developed design from interesting lighting to exposed rafters. Above all, maintaining communication with Martin has been extremely easy, he replys to all queries and requests in a very prompt and efficient manner. We did not have to chase anything and he has always delivered on his promises. The planning stage was successful due to Martin's hard work, committment and ability to liase well with the planning officer producing a design that was felt to be impressive by all! We would not hesitate to recommend Martin and Unit 3 to anybody and will definitely use them again for any future ventures.

Structural inspection or survey: around £250 - £400

Differences between residential and commercial structural engineers

Residential and commercial structural engineers near you do similar work, but the projects they handle day to day feel quite different.

A residential structural engineer near you usually works on homes and smaller developments. These are the professionals you go to for knocking through a wall, adding a loft conversion, or checking cracks in a house.
A commercial structural engineer near you tends to work on bigger, more complex buildings such as offices, shops, warehouses, or schools. Their work usually involves larger project teams and tighter rules to follow.

Put simply, if you’re changing or building a home, you’ll typically need someone used to residential work, while larger business or public projects usually call for a commercial background.

At MyBuilder, all tradespeople go through verification checks, such as IDs, company details, and complete any relevant skills assessments. This means you can feel more confident when deciding who to hire.

Questions to ask local structural engineers before hiring

Before hiring a structural engineer near you, it helps to ask a few key questions so you know they’re a good fit for your project.

Have you worked on structural projects like mine before?

Ask whether the structural engineer has dealt with similar work, such as extensions, loft conversions, wall removals, or new builds, and if they have any photos of these projects on their MyBuilder profile.

Get them to explain what they did, how they approached it, and how the final result turned out.

What will your service include?

Check with the structural engineer whether their fee includes a site visit, structural calculations, drawings, and any reports needed for building control, and ask them to flag anything that would be an extra cost.

How will you work smoothly with builders or architects?

Ask about their typical turnaround time and how they communicate with your builder or designer. Knowing how they coordinate with the rest of your team helps your project run more smoothly.

Can you provide a clear written quote that breaks down what’s included in your fee and when payment would be due?

You should ask for a breakdown of what’s included in a written quote, as well as how variations are handled, and when payment is due.

What does a structural engineer do for a house extension?

A structural engineer near you will check how your planned extension affects the existing structure and provides calculations and drawings for beams, foundations, and supports.

At what stage of my renovation should I contact a structural engineer?
