Highlights
"After a few quotes in a similae range, I opted for StructSpectrum as their depth of reviews gave me assurances they were the right choice. Arranged site visit and they were clear and engaging when they needed to adjust the site visit time and once they arrived the depth, the detail and the walkround was beyond professional. Talking me through every step and requirement. The quote was later adjusted when no drawings were needed as the wall was not load bearing. I would more than recommend. They were outstanding."
"Needed a few structural measurements for some upcoming renovations at our house. Matt was super friendly, professional and was great with guiding us through the process. We managed to get booked in at short notice which worked well. Karim turned up on time, was also friendly, professional and answered all our questions. The aftercare was great and we received the detailed report efficiently which allowed us to pass it on to our builders and get on with the rest of the works effectively. The whole process was clear and stress-free. We would highly recommend them to anyone!"
"Strutspectrum — proof that it is, in fact, possible to contact a company and have them respond. Sent an enquiry… they replied. Quickly. No vanishing act, no chasing, no wondering if my email had fallen into a black hole. They booked the survey, turned up when they said they would, did exactly what was required, and sent the report over promptly. No drama, no friction, no nonsense. After dealing with countless companies who seem allergic to answering the phone or replying to people actively trying to pay them, this was genuinely refreshing. A very rare example of “just getting on with it”"

Dealt with Martin, was very helpful giving me options for different levels of inspection. Report was thorough and exactly what we needed.
The team at StructSpectrum were really informative, communication was top notch and everything was delivered in a good time frame.
Great work and suport from the team
I needed an engineer to visit and assess whether an internal wall was load bearing (and therefore structural) or not. James attended and carried out the work thoroughly. The written report was with me within 48 hours. Would recommend.
Matt was fast, professional and reliable
Quick turnaround and very effective communication. Gave me a quote within minutes of contacting via check a trade, really quick email replies, arrived on time and completed the job as expected.
StructSpectrum were great to work with - they were very communicative and thoughtful throughout the process (in this case, organising structural calculations for the removal of a chimney breast) and the engineer who came to perform the survey was very professional and knowledgeable. I would recommend StructSpectrum and hope to engage their services again in the future.
A prompt response & excellent communication throughout. Strutspectrum were thorough and we received additional helpful information regarding our house project.
Great communication and quick turnaround. I would definitely recommend.
I made the enquiry to Structspectrum around Christmas. Matt is very responsive and patiently answered my questions even I was able to by email. The quotation is higher than other service providers but I have confident on the company via Matt advice. The report is easy to understand and delivered in less than a week. Very trust worthy company.
Matt from Structspectrum was fantastic in helping us with the structural design for some internal works at home. Very professional, efficient, and great with communication. Rick, the structural engineer they appointed, was also friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. Both made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend!
Brilliant service from StructSpectrum from start to finish. They came out promptly for the site visit, clearly knew their stuff and turned around the structural drawings for our steel beam additions quickly and professionally. What really stood out was the extra support with the building control application, they made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Clear communication, reliable and genuinely helpful throughout. Would highly recommend StructSpectrum to anyone needing structural engineering work done properly
We had a really great experience with Structspectrum who conducted a targeted structural survey for us following a Building Survey which identified areas of concern. We called and they followed up quickly with options and dates, and were able to undertake the survey within approx one week of first contact. The report was thorough, took into account the findings of two other parallel surveys, and provided a lot of reassurance. They followed up with a clear cost estimate for remedial work and we were ultimately able to renegotiate the selling price using the information they provided. Thanks!
Saeed was class. A lot of attention to detail in his work and an excellent communicator. Definitely recommend
From my initial enquiry to completion of the survey I found StructSpectrum very professional to deal with. Communication between us was excellent and was kept up to date throughout. The Structural Engineer they sent to survey the project was excellent. I would recommend this company and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
StructSpectrum made the process of removing two walls easy and stress-free. Communication was quick, clear, and professional from the start. The engineers were friendly, respectful, and happy to explain everything (including reassuring me my house would stay standing!). The report was detailed, easy to understand, and delivered fast. Pricing was fair and competitive. Overall, I was extremely happy with the service and would gladly recommend StructSpectrum to anyone needing reliable structural engineers.
These guys were very prompt to get in touch, very prompt in coming out to inspect my property and dealing with a stressful situation was made easier.
