MBE Ltd has extensive experience of providing structural and civil design consultancy services to assist with many forms of domestic project. When we talk about “domestic” projects, we are usually referring to projects that private homeowners undertake to make improvements to their own domestic homes.  Such projects usually involve creating more space, adapting existing accommodation or improving the aesthetic or quality of the home.    

​

Usually, these “domestic” projects involve modifications to the load paths; for instance, the removal of internal or external load bearing walls.  Sometimes, but not always, the modifications include extensions, such as loft conversions or “tag on” elements.  But, other alterations or refurbishments can, at times, involve extensive and complex changes to property.  Whatever structural modifications are required, MBE Ltd can be of assistance. At MBE Ltd we understand that most people who seek assistance with this sort of work are not experts and require help with the process of getting their personal projects delivered.
