Heating, ventilation and pipework that gets commissioned properly

Boiler houses, distribution pipework, ductwork and plumbing — installed by engineers who stay on site through commissioning and hand over the balancing figures to prove it.

Combined packages

Take the M&E as one package

When WMB holds both halves, the coordination happens in our office instead of on your site. Pipework routes and containment are agreed before the first fixing goes up, and there is no argument about whose scope the gap belongs to.

  • One tender, one programme and one set of risk assessments
  • Builder's work, containment and pipework coordinated before anyone is on site
  • Single point of contact from survey through to handover
  • Combined commissioning so systems are proved together, not in isolation
  • One O&M pack covering both services
