We provide our clients with a comprehensive infrastructure planning and delivery service, from assessing the viability of potential development sites through to planning, detailed design and delivery.
Shaping a better
Ardent Consulting Engineers was formed in 2005, initially to provide transport, infrastructure planning/engineering and flood risk management advice to the land development and property sector, but have since added noise and vibration and air quality and odour to our raft of services we offer our Clients. We have particular expertise in residential developments, for both greenfield and brownfield sites. Our team works with clients throughout the entire development process, taking schemes from site pre-purchase and due diligence, through the planning application submission to secure consent, and on to detailed design and site supervision during construction.
