Having originally been established in 1979, Cowan Consultancy Limited was formed in 2005 as the result of a management re-organisation.
We have over 40 years’ experience of providing engineering design and advisory consultancy services within the civil, structural, and building engineering industry from our offices in Whiteley, Hampshire and Shanklin, Isle of Wight.

We are proud to work in partnership with many highly regarded companies within the construction industry, who appreciate and demand such quality.
We are a client-oriented organisation, and place great emphasis on providing the highest standards of service and quality. We continually endeavour to embrace new ideas and take our responsibilities to the environment very seriously.
We strive to uphold our vision of ‘Engineering Excellence, Sustainable Solutions’ to produce cost-effective designs which are in keeping with today’s changing and challenging requirements.

“
The services provided by Cowan were more than satisfactory and the individuals involved played an important role as part of the project team in ensuring the successful completion of each project.”

“
Prestoplan were introduced to Cowan Consultancy at an early stage of the design development and subsequently appointed them to provide a timber frame structural design, including consideration for disproportionate collapse. Our expectations were met and we experienced a thorough service that highlighted the best solutions, including onsite support when required.”

“
This project presented many challenging architectural features for the timber frame engineer and Cowan Consultancy delivered a series of excellent solutions.”

“
When I inherited the Commodore’s House from my mother, it was found to be unstable and in a dangerous condition. Occupying a fantastic position on Cowes waterfront, it would have been all too easy to rebuild it as yet another ugly block of flats. But I felt that I couldn’t do that to Cowes. Instead, we have preserved the character of Uffa Fox’s original conversion. We have made improvements too, transforming his boat shed into a party venue, and stabilising the roof terrace. Living here is a great pleasure, and we often reflect on the ingenuity of the engineer’s scheme and how successful it has been in restoring the integrity of the structure.”

“
Cowan’s multi-disciplined skill base ensured that together we could develop a well thought out design, specifically responding to each element of this site. We hope to enhance this relationship on future projects.”
