I've just got planning for a kitchen extension, and need drawings (and steel calcs) for building regs.

If you know of anyone decent who can provide that, please let me know.

Recommendations of builders also welcome

Thank you

Your architect should be able to do this for something as simple as a kitchen extension.

You could try Alistair Dodd Consulting for your building regs. He's very good.

There aren't many structural engineers who do the regs as well as the calcs, so you may need 2 appointments. For structural I work with Nigel De Silva a lot and he's always reasonable. Pretty sure Alistair has worked with him too.

Thanks, I'll take a look.

I assumed (probably naively) that those who could offer building regs would generally have a structural engineer who would (or they would recommend to) do the calcs for steels.

Thanks, I'll take a look there too.

Not an unreasonable assumption at all.
