Wastewater Collection & Treatment Engineering
From Collection and Treatment to Safe Discharge
We deliver landmark wastewater projects that set the standard in compliance, performance, and operational efficiency — from collection and treatment to safe discharge.
Our wastewater engineering consultancy services support utilities, contractors, and developers across Northern Ireland, Ireland, and Great Britain through all stages of project delivery — from network assessment and design through to construction supervision and commissioning.
Our Wastewater Engineering Capabilities
Network Assessment & Hydraulic Modelling
Comprehensive assessment and optimisation of wastewater collection and treatment systems. Our hydraulic modelling services assess existing network performance and design future improvements that meet regulatory requirements and operational objectives.
Engineering Design & Project Management
Planning and supervision of wastewater networks and treatment plants including sewer network design, pumping stations, treatment works civil engineering, and process tank design. We provide comprehensive design services from feasibility through to detailed design and construction support, ensuring projects are delivered to specification, on time, and within budget.
Micro-Tunnelling & Storage Structures
Delivery of complex civil and mechanical works including micro-tunnelling design for sewer installation, deep shaft design, underground storage structures, and connection chamber design. Our designs account for construction methodology, ground conditions, and operational requirements to ensure safe, buildable, and cost-effective solutions.
First-Time Services & Treatment Plants
Ensuring compliance with discharge consents and environmental regulations including first-time sewerage schemes for previously unsewered areas, package treatment plant selection, small-scale treatment works design, and environmental discharge assessment.
Our Approach to Wastewater Infrastructure Design
Design & Build Collaboration
We specialise in Design & Build wastewater infrastructure projects, working collaboratively with civil engineering contractors to deliver practical, buildable solutions. Our construction-focused approach ensures designs are optimised for efficient delivery and long-term operational performance.
Environmental Protection
We provide innovative and reliable wastewater solutions, protecting public health and the environment while building resilient, future-proof networks. Our designs incorporate environmental discharge standards, energy-efficient treatment and pumping solutions, and climate resilience planning.
Regulatory Compliance
All our wastewater engineering designs comply with relevant standards and regulations including wastewater discharge consents, environmental regulations, building regulations and planning requirements, health and safety legislation including CDM regulations, and utility standards and technical specifications.
