How We Help

One engineering team, from diagnosis to delivery

Most clients come to us with a problem rather than a finished brief. We help identify the right engineering route, set out a clear next step, and where required stay involved through repair or construction so the solution is delivered properly.

Because EMA both diagnoses structural issues and supports their repair, you avoid the gap between a report that identifies a problem and the works that actually resolve it.

  • Inspect and diagnose the issue
  • Prepare calculations or specifications
  • Advise on Building Regulations
  • Set out a clear repair strategy
  • Coordinate trusted contractors
  • Review works on site

We also support specialist projects including basement extensions, basement construction and groundworks across London.
