Structural Engineering Consultancy
FAST, ECONOMIC STRUCTURAL DESIGN
ABOUT US
Tashi Structures is an independent structural engineering consultancy providing professional design and inspection services across Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire. We deliver clear, practical and buildable solutions for homeowners, contractors, architects, schools, care providers, and commercial property owners.
Our portfolio spans projects of all scales — from domestic extensions, loft conversions, and internal alterations through to education and healthcare refurbishments, new-build developments, and major structural remodelling works. We pride ourselves on technical accuracy, responsive communication, and a hands-on approach that supports both design and construction teams from concept through to completion.
A core part of our service is structural investigation and reporting, including subsidence assessments, structural condition surveys, and defect diagnosis relating to cracking, movement, corrosion, or damp-related issues. Reports are concise, engineer-led, and provide clear recommendations suitable for both remedial works and long-term asset management.
For contractors and organisations, we provide coordinated structural design packages and on-site engineering support to help de-risk construction and ensure compliance with Building Regulations, NHBC Standards, and relevant Eurocodes.
Whether you require a simple beam calculation, a technical inspection, or a complete structural design for tender and construction, Tashi Structures delivers dependable engineering expertise with the responsiveness and professionalism your project demands.
