“We love being based in the Lake District and are passionate about delivering projects to the same scale and quality as any of our city centre offices, alongside schemes more unique to the area. Our work ranges from schools and hospitals, to private houses or cultural, historical and heritage projects. At all times we are looking for the most efficient and sustainable engineering solution. In a heritage setting, this will mean minimising the structural intervention and on a new build, we will look to minimise the material used.”
Andy Roberts, Board Director

How can Cumbria address the skills shortage?
Peter Thomas, Business Unit Director for Kendal, reflects on being told he’d need to leave Cumbria to build a career, a path many still follow as they pursue opportunities in larger cities.
