About Us

M&E design doesn’t have to be complicated

Here at CCD we are a close-knit and dedicated team, working closely together every day.  You can be confident that we will give your project the attention and focus that it requires, with nominated Engineers getting to know your requirements in detail.  Our team is small enough to care about the intricacies of your project, and large enough to bring experience, knowledge and outstanding technical ability to the table.

CCD was established in 2015 by Adam, after many years working in the industry.  Adam built his business around his own vision to bring clarity, along with an open and honest approach, to M&E design.  Since our inception in 2015, we are proud to have built a dedicated and talented team which we continue to develop.  Adam continues to lead the team in delivering a consistently professional and high standard of design and support to each of our clients.
