Critical facilities
MEP for the spaces that can never go down. We design and build comms rooms, data centres and resilience upgrades in new builds and occupied facilities, where downtime isn't an option.
What we deliver
Resilience built in
Critical environments are judged on uptime, and how we can secure uptime is designed long before anyone is on site. We deliver the full MEP scope with resilience as an essential part of the process.
Comms room
From a single comms room within a wider fit-out to dedicated technical suites. We deliver the power, cooling, containment and structured cabling behind them.
Data centres and server rooms
A and B power feeds, UPS, dedicated cooling and BMS monitoring, designed around how the space will actually run, not just how it looks on paper.
Resilience upgrades
We upgrade power, cooling and controls in live environments, with temporary plant in place where it's needed and switchovers planned down to the hour.
Trading environments
Keep buildings live whilst we work
In a critical facility, operations are stricter than in most other spaces. We plan the job backwards, with method statements, temporary supplies, and out-of-hours switchovers agreed before anyone touches a thing.
Why us
Why we're chosen
Critical work is unforgiving. Our experience in the sector means we're trusted by leading organisations to keep them working whilst we design and build the next phase of their premises.
Director-led, start to finish
Our directors are involved from the first conversation, and in critical work that matters most at design stage, where resilience is actually decided.
One team, both disciplines
In critical space, power and cooling fail together or not at all. We deliver mechanical and electrical as one scope, so nothing falls between two contractors when it matters most.
Plan A, and B
Every switchover has a fallback agreed before it happens. Temporary plant, reversion points and out-of-hours windows are planned in from the start, not improvised on the night.
