Read this Little Venice structural engineer brief against “Canal side”. That is a local reference often used when describing access, elevations or neighbouring fabric around Little Venice. The written scope still follows photographs of the unit. We confirm deliverables and written appointment before detailed work — never a marketplace of random freelancers.

The process

How structural engineer is scoped in Little Venice

  3. Submit a private brief

    Use the online brief or call. We review the Little Venice evidence against fabric, access, freeholder or authority constraints and current capacity before anyone is programmed.
