Steel beam calculations for kitchen wall removals, through-lounges and rear openings across Worcester. From £245. We check load paths through older brickwork, size the steel, design padstones and produce a full Building Control-ready pack.
Ridge beams, trimming steels and new floor joists for loft rooms across Worcester. Many older roofs in St John's, Barbourne and the Arboretum need strengthening. We design the upgrade so Building Control can sign it off. From £395. See our loft conversion guide.

Your pack includes RSJ beams, padstone checks, connection details and deflection calculations, formatted to match what Worcester City Building Control and Worcestershire authorities expect.

See our inspection guide.
We provide structural monitoring surveys across Worcester city, Malvern, Droitwich and the wider Worcestershire area for homeowners, buyers and insurers dealing with cracking, settlement and subsidence.
Structural monitoring is the process of measuring and recording movement in a building over time. It involves installing crack monitors, revisiting at agreed intervals and producing a written report confirming whether movement is active or historic.
This differs from a one-off structural inspection and is used when ongoing evidence is needed — for example before or after underpinning, during a property sale or for a subsidence insurance claim. Structural monitoring Worcester reports start from £400.
Our structural monitoring Worcestershire service covers Worcester city, Malvern, Droitwich Spa, Kidderminster, Pershore, Evesham, Bromsgrove, Redditch and all surrounding villages.
Reports are produced by a chartered engineer and accepted by insurers, mortgage lenders and solicitors. Where movement has stopped, we confirm this in writing. Where it is still active, we advise on next steps. Fees start from £400 depending on the number of monitoring points and the programme length.
As a structural engineer Worcestershire practice, we cover the full county — not just Worcester city. Same fixed fees and turnaround across the whole area.
We set out the scope and fee before we start. From £245 for RSJ beams across Worcestershire — no surprise extras halfway through your build.
RSJ beams within 24 to 72 hours. Larger loft and extension packs within 3 to 5 working days. The same for Redditch or Bromsgrove as for Worcester city.
We work with Worcester City Building Control, Malvern Hills District Council, Wychavon and all other Worcestershire building control authorities. We answer their queries directly as part of the service.
Terraces in the Arboretum, 1930s semis in Claines, Victorian villas in Malvern, newer estates in Warndon — we design around local patterns, not generic templates.
The same simple process whether you are opening a wall, converting the loft or commissioning a structural monitoring report.
Email architect drawings, estate agent plans or sketches with dimensions. We confirm what needs designing and what is load bearing.
We send a clear fixed price in writing before any work begins. RSJ beams within 24 to 72 hours. Larger packs within 3 to 5 working days.

Recent feedback from homeowners and builders across Worcester and Worcestershire.
"We were opening up our kitchen in Barbourne. The RSJ design was clear, the drawings were easy for the builder and Building Control signed it off without any fuss."
Sarah, Barbourne, Worcester
"Our St John's terrace had a shallow roof and old joists. SECalcs explained the options and designed a ridge beam and floor that kept as much headroom as possible."
James, St John's, Worcester
"Added a single-storey extension in Warndon Villages. The beams, pad foundations and notes were all clear and any Building Control questions were handled promptly."
Mark, Warndon Villages, Worcester
