Peter Orme has been in independent practice as a Civil and Structural Engineer since 1986. We offer a personal service providing structural surveys and structural design mainly to domestic clients in Bristol and surrounding areas.
The practice has extensive experience in the design of steelwork, concrete, timber and brickwork. On small projects we prepare our own drawings to accompany the structural calculation. On larger projects we work in conjunction with architects.
Structural Engineer's Reports
Our speciality is Structural Engineer's Reports, and we are probably the premier independent practice in Bristol to offer this service. The Structural Engineer's Report provides specialist advice on the structural integrity of all or part of a building. A report is usually required when:
- A mortgage valuation has drawn attention to a structural defect.
- There is difficulty selling a house because of a structural defect.
- Evidence is required to make an insurance claim for subsidence.
