Latest Project - Getting Ready for Summer



When we say we work all over the UK we mean it!  Today’s project has a bit of summer promise and a hint of showbiz glamour.

The weather will be better for the holidays

Working with Cormac Solutions, for Cornwall Council, we recently undertook inspections of a range of retaining walls around harbours and beaches.  The council are obviously being proactive in ensuring that we all have safe and enjoyable holidays this summer.



The second part of the project is where the showbiz glamour comes in, no not our team of engineers, attractive as they might be, but the footbridge we were tasked with inspecting was built on Challenge Anneka back in 1991 - for those of a certain age that will bring up memories of helicopters and cat suits, but we better not go there!



It may have Challenged Anneka............. ;o)
Using industrial rope access our engineers - and that is what they are, with qualifications and everything - carried out a detailed, hands on inspection of the whole structure, later preparing a report of their findings. And best of all we were able to keep the bridge largely open throughout the works.



So Cornwall is ready to receive visitors and we have another happy customer - want to join them? Call 01270 58961

NCE Consultants File 2013

With the publication of the NCE Consultants File 2013 we are pleased to see ourselves once more appearing in the same lists as Atkins, Mouchel, Arups and Mott MacDonalds.

Once again Atkins top the lists for number of staff and turnover. It will take a while for us to match their reported 18,679 staff and £1.7 billion in fees, but we are making progress.

It is pleasing to see The Up and Under Group making an entry into the ‘Top Firms in Water’ Rankings for the first time to compliment our entries in the ‘Top Firms in Asset Management’ and ‘Top Firms in the Public Sector’ amongst others.

OK, so the top spot looks a little unlikely any time soon. Our clients know that they get a great personal service and care. Maybe that would be a category for next year ‘Top Firms who Care’
