  • "We have been delighted with the service we’ve received from EPA Design. From our very first meeting, Scott had an excellent appreciation of our wish to remain sympathetic to the existing structure and surrounding environment, and took a genuine interest in what we wanted our new space to achieve. He added real value to our own thoughts and developed a design which perfectly meets our needs. Scott and the team have kept us informed at every stage of the process and have provided a friendly, professional service throughout. We would thoroughly recommend EPA."

  • "We needed a reliable Structural Engineering firm for an Essex barn renovation and conversion project. We were recommended the services of these guys by our builder who had previously worked on a job where the client had happily used them. I’m pleased to report that we have found them to be thoroughly professional and responsive to our structural engineering work needs. Tom in particular has been really helpful and knowledgeable - their pricing is competitive too. Definitely to be recommended and used again."

  • "We were recommended to use EPA Design to undertake a structural engineering survey prior to the installation of a 3.65m span of bifold doors. We were not disappointed. The service was prompt and highly professional with the detailed drawings and calculations provided to us within 2 or 3 days of the visit. The cost of the services was very reasonable and we could not recommend the company highly enough."

    Our Location & Approach

    Located in the heart of the Essex countryside, our team benefits from a beautiful working environment and a direct connection to the surrounding landscapes. This peaceful and inspiring setting is essential to our team’s health and well-being, allowing creativity to thrive within our practice.

    Every client has a unique brief, and each site or building has its own distinct character. We therefore approach every project individually, ensuring these qualities are carefully considered throughout the design process. We recognise the significant personal and financial investment our clients commit to their projects, which is why we work closely and collaboratively with them at every stage. While a dedicated project manager oversees each commission, our design concepts are developed collectively by the wider team through a process of evaluation, understanding, critique and refinement.
