AWS were brilliant from start to finish. They inspected the roof before I bought my house, which helped me negotiate the price. Later, they supported my renovation project, checked wall removals, designed the structure, and acted as my Principal Dsigner to keep everything compliant. Super reliable and efficient!

I reached out to AWS Structural Consultants with a complex flat renovation project in a London estate. From the very first call, they were incredibly helpful—reviewing the estate plans thoroughly and providing clear guidance on structural feasibility, building regulations, and party wall matters. They responded quickly and professionally, giving me the confidence to move forward with both the design and negotiations. I would highly recommend them to anyone renovating a flat in London who needs experienced, responsive structural engineers.

AWS helped me assess a potential structural issue with a house I was considering buying. I was very pleased with the service from start to finish. Rex and Sue were always very responsive and took care to note my observations and questions about the property. Rex gave good, focussed advice both in his report and follow up calls that were crucial in helping me make a decision on the property. I would highly recommend AWS and I expect to go to them in the future with any structural and planning work.

I was really worried about some cracks on the front of our house. They were prompt, superbly professional. Explained everything in non techical language and the price was spot on.
It is always daunting dealing with these sorts of issues but AWS made it really simple.
Couldn't recommend them highly enough.

The AWS team was very helpful from day one, when I made the first call and spoke to Rex Wong, he took the time to explain everything in detail then quoted and delivered calculations and drawings by the time I was promised, Rex and Sue were very helpful when need to make amendments to our plans and really good dealing with Thames water and the council for the required licences, I will definitely use their services again and will recommend AWS anytime. Thank you Rex and Sue

Recently I was in touch with AWS and needed an urgent report. Rex Wong at AWS responded to my request. I was able to get in touch with Rex and his response time was quick. He produced a report on time and provided needed details to proceed with my building works. He understands end-user priorities and focus on delivering results on time. I would recommend AWS / Rex

We were recommended to obtain an independent structural survey of our house by our estate agent to aid the sale. AWS turned around the survey very quickly and provided a comprehensive report within 2 weeks.

We had Rex of AWS visit to survey an issue in the process of purchasing our building's lease. He was thoughtful, proactive and the whole turnaround was quick and effective. Highly recommended.

Quick comms from Sue, and Rex came around soon after to inspect and take dimension for a structural steel for a new wall opening. Very happy with the service.

Emmet Doyle

Very quick to take our money. Didn't do any research before arriving on site. Came to entirely unrealistic conclusions (as confirmed by other structural engineers) and then Sue refused to communicate with us further. I wish we hadn't used them, waste of money.

Excellent service, came out very quickly and were very transparent with the quote and how the service works. This is the second time I have used their services and would certainly do so again. Thanks Sue and team.

I came across AWS when I was looking for a structural engineer to do a site specific survey to determine the cause of a large crack I’d noticed on the rear wall of my property. Their fee, whilst not the cheapest, was not extortionate either …and their reviews were universally positive so I decided to go with them.

I’m so pleased that I did. I felt they were friendly and knowledgeable, flexible when I had to change the survey appt and very thorough in their investigation. The resulting report, which was available a few days later, reflected this and not only covered the area of concern but every other crack to the rear of my home also. Luckily the crack was not as severe as I’d previously imagined and the report offered information on possible causes and very specific guidance on remedial action.

Exactly what I needed - more than what I needed - or expected actually… and I’ve absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.

I'd highly recommend AWS!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

In July 2022, called them for any appointment. Upfront on cost and the process. Rex arrived on time, very knowledgeable, did a thorough inspection detailing what he saw and gave his option as to what needs to be corrected first.
We live in a listed building that comes with a lot of challenges. The report received was everything discussed with approx costs of repairs.

Thank you so much! 💐

They were recommended by my architect. We needed a structural engineer to work on our extension project in London. They were efficient, very responsive and worked well with my architect, party wall surveyor, and builder. Our project was on hold for a year due to party wall issues and then we needed a quick response to change the structrual design. They reacted quickly to our request and the project is now moving. Their price was very competitive too and very clear upfront about their quotation.

We brought AWS in as an alternative to the structural engineers who were recommended by our architect. The reason we didn’t go with the first referral was that they were going to submit their assessment solely based on the architectural drawings, without actually visiting our home. We thought that was a bit unusual and were not comfortable with that.

Rex Wong visited our home and made a very thorough assessment, and was able to pick up on some potential issues that were not captured by the architects. We were very pleased with the service and can highly recommend AWS for your project.

Excellent, quick service compared to other companies I have used before. Great turnaround times and very responsive to queries along the way, always easy to get hold of. Very happy with the drawings and AWS have asked the builder to get in touch if there are any queries for the build. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sue and the AWS team if you’re planning a home extension.
