Thank you so much to Derek and his team from helping me with my project. Really appreciated the quick response to all my emails. I would definitely recommend SSA to anyone.

Needed advice re feasibility of undertaking a loft conversion as have some structural weakness (bowing) flank wall. Did some research on the Institute of Structural Engineers website and was impressed with SSA's response to my initial queries. Derek and the SSA team completed a feasibility report earlier in the year which made recommendations (including an architect) that could take the project forward.

We're now at a stage that a detailed structural engineering report has been completed (calculations and drawings) with the architect currently completing the detailed plan to take to builders for quotes and realise the project in the near future.

I have been very impressed by SSA - Derek's knowledge and advice, timely responses and above all his willingness to explain and walk me through the process has been invaluable. I highly recommend SSA - a bespoke service.

We had a very complex refurb project and were lucky enough to be introduced to Derek and the team who made short work of it. Top quality drawings, quick service and great value. Thank you.

Derek was recommended to us by a friend who is an architect and has worked with him numerous times. We were delighted with the service we received from Derek and his team. We had a big problem that seemed insurmountable but Derek with his skill and deep knowledge found a great solution that was far cheaper than we had imagined. Incredibly good value for money and a very friendly and professional service. We would highly recommend SSA to anyone. Nicole and Ted Smart, Hampton Wick.

Derek and the team helped me with a loft conversion on my property in Twickenham. The energy and enthusiasm with which they threw themselves into the challenging task (what is a building project without some moving goalposts!) was matched only by the detail and expertise that they exhibited. Unable to think what more could have been done by SSA. Highly recommended.

We had a complicated building project that consisted of a garden room adjacent to a boundary wall that needed underpinning, a loft conversion and a rear kitchen extension that were being built by a loft and extension company. I was not happy with what they were doing on site - particularly when we were told we were going to have to pay for expensive underpinning, seemingly without proper evaluation.

I was already concerned about certain aspects of what they were doing and wanted a professional independent expert opinion on this and contacted Derek Mason of Super Structures Associates. Derek attended site at short notice (which was essential), he quickly assessed the situation and then explained to the contractor what he should do and how he should be constructing the various elements.

It was such a relief to have Derek assisting us with this difficult project and it gave us the confidence that everything would be done properly. Super Structures visited site on two further occasions to ensure that everything was being done correctly. It all turned out well in the end and thanks to Derek and Super Structures Associates for helping us achieve this.

If you are looking for a safe pair of hands for your project, we found Derek Mason and his company went far beyond expectations and were fantastic to deal with.

Super Structures Associates delivered an excellent, pragmatic solution to our residential development project. Their team ensured that both they and us fully understood what we wanted and what could be delivered in practice. They completed their work speedily and always kept us informed of progress.
SSA are a great team to work with and we will continue to use their services as our project goes forward.

It has been amazing to work with Super Structures Associates from beginning to the end. They are so efficient and prompt, but also know that it is reassuring to get progress e-mails on how the project is going. We felt in such good hands and the team who looked after us made us feel so nurtured. This is a rare thing in business, and they are not only expert in structural engineering and takes this to another level, they also understand customer care. Thank you all for helping us so professionally. Tone and Stephen Hughes

Derek & the team were excellent throughout their support of our loft & ground floor extension which covered some pretty tricky steels downstairs to achieve the clerestory window we wanted. Derek in particular has been incredibly helpful and pragmatic in supporting us through the design and on site questions and amends. A great Structural engineer.

I found Super Structures Associates to be very professional. When asked, Derek Mason was able to visit our property twice in quick succession and drafted detailed reports of his findings extremely quickly. Derek worked well with our builders, and in fact our site foreman had worked with Derek on previous projects and said he had found him to be efficient and professional too. I am pleased I used Super Structures Associates, for their efficiency and professionalism, and reasonable costing for the level of service provided.

We have been carrying out some fairly substantial alterations to a late Georgian cottage in Esher. As so often in such projects, the work has involved a number of changes of tack as we discover, and need to respond to, a variety of hidden structural defects amassed over two hundred years of piecemeal alterations and decay. The whole SSA Team has proven extremely helpful in this process - quick to respond, flexible, efficient and incredibly thoughtful in coming up with practical solutions to fit both our technical needs and our budget.
Not just myself, but our architect and contractor have been thoroughly impressed by SSA's professionalism and skills. I can honestly say that in my experience SSA have provided us with 100% good value. Just as an afterthought I have also been impressed by the way Derek has given time to involve his trainees and, by extension, non-specialist like myself, in the thinking and planning process.

Derek is professional and worth every penny.
Derek drawings are detailed to the point I was able to understand them, which gave me confidence that the builders would not have a problem following them. We had an unexpected issue when going through what was thought were the foundations. I called Derek and explained the issue and he came over to the property that evening and put my mind at ease. Derek sent me the revised drawing the next day with no additional cost. Derek came over to my property on three separate occasions and always happy to advise where necessarily.
I have recommended Derek to my work colleagues and friends and my builder has also recommended Derek to his clients.

We met Derek last Autumn when we engaged his Firm, SSA, to undertake structural calculations for us, on a 1930s Art Deco flat that we had purchased in Roehampton.

He duly completed his detailed calculations and sent us an entire set of drawings and calculations back in November 2017.

However, only now in March 2018, are we getting around to finalising our refurbishment plans. And when we realised we needed some slight modifications (to our original brief to SSA), our architect contacted Derek, who immediately (without any additional charges) made the necessary recalculations, and emailed us back a complete set of drawings and calculations.

I have absolutely no hesitation in referring SSA to anyone who needs a local Structural Engineer.

The findings of a HomeBuyer surveyor required assessment of a chimney structure by a structural engineer in order for the lender to lend against the property. Having located SSA, Derek and I engaged and it was obvious that SSA knew what they were talking about. This was considered a small project for them and they attended promptly (within 48 hours), maintaining open comms with us during the process. Subsequent to this, and due to pressure from our seller, SSA produced their findings in a 70 page report, presenting 2 viable options to rectify the issue. This was delivered 3 days ahead of schedule aiding us greatly and putting our sellers mind at ease.

It was a pleasure dealing with SSA and we are grateful for their speedy turnaround. SSA understood that the process of purchasing a home and having to deal with these unforeseen obstacles could/can be stressful enough and took steps to alleviate this. Thank you SSA.

Derek Mason of SSA assessed our flat for how safe it would be to remove a partial wall in our kitchen. We needed to know if it was load bearing and would have any impact on the structure of our building. Derek did a thorough inspection of the property and was able to provide us with the reassurance we needed that the work could be safely carried out.

Derek is clearly an expert in his field and I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who needs a structural engineer. He is thorough, knowledgeable and very friendly.

SSA were incredibly helpful in assessing a potential damage during our recent property sale. Very quick to respond and provide the report, with excellent service and responsiveness.

Couldn't be happier with our recent project with SSA. Responsive service, good communication throughout, and a highly professional and comprehensive report at the end of the project. Not cheap but worth every penny. 100% satisfied.

We engaged Super Structure Associates to provide structural calculations and drawings for a loft conversion project. Once work was underway we also requested a site inspection to ensure compliance of installed beams, padstones and joists to the design and drawing.

Our main contact was Derek Mason who was very professional and easy to work with. The work schedule and all applicable fees were agreed up front, all work was completed in a timely fashion with no surprises. He worked well with our architect, project manager and building contractor. His experience and expertise meant that any ad hoc queries were quickly and effectively dealt with.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Super Structure Associates.
