Water

Our national water services team provides specialist expertise in water management and compliance, delivering tailored solutions through innovative strategies and integrated design approaches.

Water plays a central role in creating resilient and sustainable buildings and places. Our team brings together engineers, environmental specialists, planners and designers to help clients manage water responsibly whilst adapting to climate change to deliver projects with long-term value.

We work across the entire project lifecycle, guiding clients from early concept through to delivery, operation and future adaptation. Being part of the project team from the outset enables us to inform site acquisitions, support planning applications, engage stakeholders, provide expert witness statements, develop designs, offer construction site supervision, and deliver O&M training to building and site operators.

Our expertise encompasses flood risk, surface-water management, utilities, water infrastructure, nature-based solutions, wider infrastructure and environmental integration. By combining technical insight with collaborative, multidisciplinary thinking, we help clients unlock complex sites, navigate regulatory pathways and create high-quality, climate-resilient outcomes.
