Mechanical and electrical design services are provided via skilled engineers. Services are fully integrated into the overall design process to deliver practical, sustainable and well-maintained environments across wide-ranging sectors and for all applications. These encompass complex service systems for laboratories and research facilities, manufacturing and process applications, teaching and training facilities, historic and heritage sites, retail and hospitality venues and many more. With significant experience in low-energy and low-carbon-impact design, Silcock Leedham is able to propose solutions with minimal environmental impact that are simple, cost-effective and easy to use and maintain.

Building information modelling (BIM) is a key service used to enhance the design process and increase productivity. Revit and Navisworks are used for fully integrated BIM. With experience beyond the design phase of projects for over 20 years, the team’s 3D knowledge and capabilities incorporate fully coordinated construction information.

The UN Sustainable Development Goals and net zero are central to the company strategy and mission and its focus on all projects undertaken is on protecting the environment, reducing carbon footprint and supporting the communities and societies in which it works.

This approach encompasses the complete construction process, seeing it take ownership of fabric performance standards, fenestration requirements and building orientation to ensure any building efficiently uses natural light, shade, air and heat.

Some of Silcock Leedham’s clients and projects include the University of Leeds, McDonalds, the NHS, the University of Nottingham and Bruntwood.
