We’re proud of our track record and continuing support of clients across the UK in this dynamic sector. Our team provide engineering designs and consultancy to help deliver and maintain retail spaces that carefully consider sustainability, energy efficiency, occupant comfort and ever-changing consumer trends – all with minimal disruption to visitors and retail operations.

Retail has changed significantly over the past 10 years.  The continued growth in online shopping, the closure of flagship retailers on the high street and the overall downturn in footfall has presented some very challenging conditions.

Our wide range of experience has helped us provide support, advice, and engineering solutions to our clients, helping them adapt to these challenges, creating inclusive and attractive shopping destinations.

With relationships spanning over 30 years, we’re seen as a key member of the design team for our clients, working on schemes ranging from reconfiguring retail units, developing mixed use schemes, the incorporation of leisure facilities through to complete change of use projects.

Our expertise in retail incorporates:

  • New build schemes
  • Extensions
  • Refurbishment
  • Landlord enabling works
  • Sub-divisions and reconfiguration
  • Survey, condition, dilapidations and acquisition reporting
  • Planned preventative maintenance (PPM) strategies
