Think before you act. Four ways that engaging a specialist designer for your refurbishment project can solve problems before they can occur.

When refurbishing a high-end property, it is essential to consider the mechanical and electrical systems, as these systems will have a significant impact on the overall functionality, comfort, and energy efficiency of the property. Hiring a specialist mechanical and electrical design consultant is a cost-effective solution for several reasons.

First, a specialist consultant has the expertise and experience to design systems that meet the specific requirements of your property. They will consider factors such as the size of the property, the orientation, the climate, and the lifestyle of the residents, to create a custom-designed system that is tailored to your needs.

Second, a specialist consultant can help you to make informed decisions about the types of systems you should use. They can provide advice on the most energy-efficient and sustainable systems, and also help you to determine the optimal location for these systems, which can help to reduce installation costs and improve energy efficiency.

Third, a specialist consultant can help you to optimize the design of the systems, to ensure that they are as efficient as possible. For example, they can help you to choose the right size of heating and cooling systems, and to design the electrical system to ensure that it is capable of supporting all of the electrical devices you will need in the property.

Finally, a specialist consultant can also help you to identify potential problems before they arise. They can carry out an assessment of the existing systems and identify any areas that need to be improved, which can help to minimize the risk of system failure and improve energy efficiency.

In conclusion, employing a specialist mechanical and electrical design consultant to design systems when refurbishing your high-end property is a cost-effective solution that provides many benefits. A specialist consultant can provide expert advice, optimize the design of the systems, and help you to make informed decisions about the types of systems you should use, which can help to improve the overall functionality, comfort, and energy efficiency of your property.

Oatway Design Ltd never fails to deliver in the quality of service that they provide. They have continually approached our projects with proficiency. They are not only capable, but also down to earth and incredibly easy to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend Oatway Design Ltd to anyone requiring mechanical and electrical engineering services.

Our team at Woodford Architecture and Interiors have been working with Oatway Design Ltd/D&J Oatway on projects in Devon and the South West for over 10 years and we have found their knowledge and positive approach to team working assists us in delivering projects of the highest quality.

The service from Oatway Design Ltd has been second to none, a very professional, personable and efficient service all round! The attention to detail and commitment to ensuring that we are completely satisfied has ensured that the project is running very smoothly.

We've worked with Stephan and the team at Oatway Design Ltd on several projects. I'm happy to share that each time I have been impressed with their approach. These projects are in the care sector where clients are sensitive to costs as well as the end user needs. We were not disappointed, the design outputs were to a very high standard and integrated renewables to ensure sustainability. Oatway Design's end-to-end client service is excellent and feels bespoke. That level of care and professionalism is uncommon in our industry. We look forward to working together again in the future.
