Professional Structural Engineering for Domestic & Commercial Projects

Whether you’re planning a home extension, removing a load-bearing wall or assessing a commercial building, professional structural engineering advice can help your project progress safely and efficiently.

IKT Consulting is a structural engineering consultancy based in Nottingham, providing practical engineering solutions for domestic, commercial and industrial projects across the UK.

We support homeowners, landlords, architects, developers, fabricators and contractors with structural calculations, designs, inspections and reports. Our engineers combine technical expertise with hands-on project experience, helping clients understand structural challenges and make informed decisions.

From initial feasibility through to construction, our approach reflects three core values: Integrity, Knowledge and Teamwork. We prioritise honest advice, effective communication and engineering solutions tailored to each project.

Practical Structural Engineering Expertise You Can Rely On

Every building presents different structural considerations. Its age, construction, condition and previous alterations can influence how it responds to additional loads or proposed changes.

As experienced structural engineers in Nottingham, IKT Consulting takes a project-specific approach. We assess existing structures, identify potential concerns and consider how loads are transferred through beams, walls, columns and foundations.

Our experience includes residential alterations, loft conversions, mezzanine structures and commercial inspections. We have also supported projects involving structural movement, chimney breast removals and alterations to existing load-bearing elements.

Working alongside architects, builders and contractors, we provide clear calculations, drawings and recommendations that consider structural safety, buildability and cost-effectiveness.

Our Domestic Services

Planning structural alterations or concerned about your property’s condition? Our domestic structural engineering services help homeowners understand what’s possible, identify potential problems and progress projects with confidence.

Beam Calculations: Removing a load-bearing wall often requires a replacement beam to support the structure above. We provide structural beam calculations that consider the loads involved, appropriate beam sizing and supporting elements.
Domestic Structural Inspections: Cracking, movement, sagging floors and other defects may indicate underlying structural concerns. Our engineers inspect the affected areas, assess potential causes and recommend appropriate next steps.
Structural Design: From individual structural elements to more extensive residential projects, we develop designs that consider building loads, structural stability and practical construction requirements.
Structural Engineer Reports: Our structural engineer reports document relevant findings and recommendations, helping property owners make informed decisions about defects, repairs, alterations or property purchases.
Alterations and Extensions: Whether you’re opening up internal spaces or extending your property, we assess how proposed changes affect the existing structure and develop suitable engineering solutions.
Barn Conversions: Converting an agricultural building requires careful assessment of its existing condition and structural capacity. We provide engineering advice and designs to support the building’s intended new use.
Barn Loft Conversions: Creating additional living space can introduce new loads to existing floors, walls and roof structures. We assess structural requirements and provide calculations and designs for proposed loft conversions.

Our Commercial Services

IKT Consulting works with commercial property owners, developers, facilities managers and contractors to assess, maintain and develop buildings. Our commercial structural engineering services support both existing structures and new developments.

Structural Design: We develop structural designs for commercial projects, considering loading requirements, material selection, construction methods and coordination with the wider design team.
Commercial Structural Inspections: Our commercial structural inspections help identify deterioration, defects and other structural concerns. Findings can inform maintenance planning, repairs and decisions about continued use.
Structural Drawings: We produce structural drawings that communicate design requirements, dimensions and construction details, helping contractors understand and implement the proposed engineering solution.
External Staircase Inspections: External staircases and fire escapes can be affected by corrosion, deterioration and connection defects. Our external staircase inspections assess their structural condition and identify concerns requiring further investigation or remedial action.
New Build Structural Engineering: From initial design development through to construction, we provide structural engineering support for new commercial buildings, helping coordinate structural requirements with architectural plans and construction methods.
Roof Surveys for Solar Panels: Solar panel installations introduce additional permanent and environmental loading considerations. Our roof surveys for solar panels assess the existing structure to help determine whether it can support the proposed installation or requires strengthening.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Daniel came to visit our property due to some internal cracking we had noted. He was polite, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. A full report was recieved less than 10 days after the initial visit with detailed recommendations to ensure any issues are rectified. I would 100 percent recommend and look forward to working with Daniel again when we build our extension 😀  Many thanks!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I required a company to carry out structural surveys on a customer's external fire escapes. I contacted IKT Consulting LTD  to carry out the surveys on my behalf. I found IKT Consulting Ltd to be very professional with an outstanding attitude towards customer service. The reports were very thorough and I would have no hesitation in using IKT Consulting LTD for future projects.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently purchased our house in Derby and required a steel beam calculation in January 24. During his visit to our house, he gave great alternative options for our kitchen/dining room design which resulted in us being able to maximise our space and natural light. Daniel Ikotun at IKT was extremely helpful, accommodating, professional and provided a very fast turnaround. Very good value and expert advice. Thanks again Daniel, would recommend your services to anyone looking for structural engineering support.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are in the process of buying a house and had several structural issues flagged on the home buyers survey and was advised to have specific structural survey undertaken. I came across IKT Consulting online and decided to instruct them to undertake the survey. The engineer, Daniel, kindly offered to chat things through with me before the survey, gave me a call after the survey to give me the results, issued the report promptly, and then agreed to chat through the report with me after I'd had time to digest it. His explanations were super clear, jargon free, and really put my mind at ease about the necessary works. I really can't fault IKT Consulting - so glad I found them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently purchased a house and decided to remove x2 chimney breasts in upstairs bedroom and downstairs kitchen diner.   The builder went into the loft to inspect and discovered it was not safe to remove the chimney breast.  The builder suggested getting a structural engineer to have a look and this is where IKT consulting was recommended to me. The company sent the relevant information and specifications to the builders to proceed with the work.  The structural engineer also sent me the same information on what was to be done and explained the reasons why. This being my first home, I felt reassured as the engineer and I discussed the work in the loft. He was clear, concise and his knowledge was truly informative giving me great confidence in the company. Throughout the job, the engineer was consistent keeping on top of what was going on and liaised with the builders as well as myself.  As an outcome, I received a completion document from the company.  I was amazed from start to finish with how efficient, precise and organised the structural engineer was especially his communication between myself and builder.  I would highly recommend IKT and will use again myself if needed. Thank you IKT Consulting!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I asked Daniel to assess the structural safety of a previous internal wall removal after cracks appeared in the wall on the floor above it. Before he came he gave clear advice about what areas needed to be exposed in order to be able to carry out his assessment and while he was carrying out his assessment he even gave me some advice about other structural issues around my home. He was friendly and professional throughout and I was really struck by how much he cared about the safety of the homes of those he visits. He prepared the report very quickly after the assessment (even though it was over the Christmas holidays) and when I had follow up questions he gave prompt and clear responses. I have been so impressed with his work ethic and his knowledge and intend to ask him back to sign off the work once it has been completed.
