Structural Engineer in Esher

Esher is one of Surrey's most exclusive residential areas, with a high proportion of large Victorian and Edwardian detached properties and substantial inter-war houses. Properties around Esher, Claygate, Hinchley Wood, and Long Ditton are frequently extended and altered, with structural engineering requirements that reflect the scale and quality of the original construction.

The London clay geology beneath much of Elmbridge is a dominant feature of structural design in the area. Clay shrinkage and heave near trees, and the bearing capacity of stiff London clay, are both relevant to extension and new foundation design. The River Thames to the north of the area introduces flood risk for properties in the lower-lying areas.

We cover Esher, Claygate, Hinchley Wood, Long Ditton, and surrounding Elmbridge villages.
