I’m really glad I found Simple Design Services online. Simon contacted me quickly to talk through what I needed. As a first-time-buyer I was nervous about some recent significant building repairs on a house I am buying, as well as the age of the property.
Simon explained the process and gathered as much additional information as the sellers had following the inspection, to weave into the report.
It gave me peace of mind, knowledge and information of what to look out for & possible future work that may be required.
Simon at SimpleDesignServices has provided consistent, knowledgeable, professional support for four of my recent build or refurbishment projects (loft conversion, workshop new build, kitchen open plan conversion and patio door lintel specification). He has provided a range of support from basic advice on best practice and signposting to relevant sources of information, all the way through to clearly presented full calculations ready to be submitted for building control approval. In each case it has been good to be able to proceed with confidence with Simon’s help.
Very pleased with Simple Design Services. Simon Heathorn was able to supply me with a CSA promptly after an inspection of our property and studying the original underpining documentation from 30 and 25 years ago. Highly recommend Simple Design Services
STRUCTURAL CALCULATIONS I chose Simple Designs to assist me in achieving structural calculations required for a regularisation request I had for a rooflight fitted in 2012, without certification. Although I was notrequired to apply, due to the length of time the rooflight had been in situ. If I was to sell my property in the future, the lack of certification held by building Control could delay the selling process. I decided this route if I were to sell the property in years to come. My initial conversation with Simon was very informative, what seemed a complex situation, was explained to me and this put me at ease straight away. Having provided Simon with as much information as possible with some line drawings, he set to work on the calculations. A timescale of 3 weeks was given, Simon achieved this within 2 weeks excellent news for me. The whole process was slick and very professional, I was completely happy with the service provided by Simple Designs and Simon's approachability. Thank you.
Over the years we have used Simon on several occasion. He has always been very professional and efficient and we have great confidence in his structural reports. Highly recommended
Simon was incredibly quick to respond and spent a reassuring amount of time answering any questions I had. Calculations arrived ahead of schedule with the exact details clearly highlighted and summarized for my builder. Highly professional and would definitely recommend.
This was the first time I had used Simple Design Services, they undertook the structural calcs for a new development of 3 x 3 storey, 3 bedroom terraced townhouses I am building, Simon provided us with a very professional service, at a very competitive price. I would certainly recommend Simple Designs to other potential clients.
Simple Design Services undertook a construction survey on a boundary wall that had collapsed at the height of Storm Eustace. Simon provided us with a very professional service including a written report that has allowed us to challenge our insurance company who had refused to uphold our claim. We would certainly recommend Simple Designs to other potential clients.
I required structural calculations to have a load bearing wall removed. Site visit was arrange quickly and following report is comprehensive, arriving in a good time frame.
Simon provided our calculations for a small job to comply with building regs and provided a great service.
I needed an engineer to look at an internal load bearing wall that was tilting with cracked plaster showing. Simon came to look at the problem and was very reassuring with regard to the repairs required and quick to send a detailed report. He was very professional and thorough. I would recommend Simple Design Services.
Simple design, and specifically Simon has provided a valued service to my company on a few projects now. I really value the professional service offered and intend to continue working with Simple Design on future projects.
The team at Simple Design have once again done a fantastic job, my client was let down by their engineers and I recommended Simple Design. The quote was quickly generated and agreed, by the end of the week Simon had the calculations to us and the contract proceeded without any further delay. If I could give 6 stars I would.
I have been genuinely delighted with my experience with Simple Design Services. Simon is friendly, knowledgeable, extremely reliable and prompt to answer any questions prior to and after completing the structural calculations. The drawings came back sooner than expected and he was quick to revise the plans at the last minute as per my request. I cannot recommend him highly enough for providing such a superb, cost effective service. Thank you.
Delivered exactly to the promised timescales and very responsive to any questions asked/emails sent.
Simple Design Services carried out a design for supporting a chimney which involved a series of steels on two floors. They kept me informed of progress as the design was being drawn up and were always polite and responsive. Simon was prompt and on time for the site visit and produced very thorough and detailed plans shortly after his site visit.
Excellent service on two occasions, once for a structural investigation for a mortgage to support our mortgage application and then a second to design the structural elements for our kitchen extension. Simon was helpful, honest and courteous.
Extremely happy with Simon from Simple Design Services. Quick and professional response to an issue raised by a mortgage valuation. Simon attended property and provided report almost a week quicker than any other companies said they could. Very happy and would recommend to others.
Thank you very much.
Your quick and hassle free service is much appreciated.
I'll recommend you to my friends without hesitation.
My mortgage company survey report requested a structural engineers report which was completed quickly and enabled me to get my mortgage, thanks.
