Structural engineer Liverpool for extensions, lofts and wall removals
★★★★★
5/5 rating from homeowners
We design the RSJ beams, loft floors and extension structures that keep Liverpool projects moving, from city semis to suburban bungalows.
Most of our Liverpool work comes from word of mouth between builders, architects and past clients who want clear structural calculations without fuss.
- Typical Liverpool houses in mind – from terraced homes in Wavertree and Anfield to post-war semis in Childwall and Crosby.
- One structural pack covering beams, joists, padstones and bearing walls so your builder is not guessing on site.
- Plain-English explanations so you, your architect and your builder all know what is being supported and why.
We work with homeowners, small developers, architects and builders across Liverpool, Wirral, Sefton and wider Merseyside.

Structural engineer Liverpool – common questions
Short answers to the questions we hear most often from Liverpool homeowners and builders.
Do you need to visit my house in Liverpool?
Often no. Clear drawings, photos and basic measurements are enough for many RSJ designs, extensions and loft conversions. If a visit is needed because of poor information or unusual details we explain that first and include it in the quote.
How much does a structural engineer cost in Liverpool?
Simple wall removals with one RSJ and clear photos tend to sit in the low hundreds. Full extension and loft projects cost more because there are more beams, checks and drawings. Send your plans and we will reply with a fixed fee before you commit.
Will Building Control accept your calculations?
Yes. We design to the Eurocodes with the UK National Annexes and present the work in a format Building Control officers see every day. If they raise a question on a Liverpool job we answer it and adjust the pack where needed as part of the service.
