Studio

Bailiss & Company is a structural and civil engineering practice focused on the people we design for, and with.

Founder John Bailiss has 20 years' experience from multiple award-winning practices, across all building sectors and materials, including basement design, working with listed and heritage buildings and construction on challenging sites, including over tunnels.

John is passionate about building a sustainable future for the industry and sits on the IStructE's Structural Futures Committee, and this is an approach we have instilled throughout the practice.

The company is founded on the ethos of providing suitable, intelligent and pragmatic support to projects, through the design of new structures and details, as well as the investigation, assessment and proof of existing buildings and elements. Proving that what we already have is suitable and functional is key to reducing our use of new materials, time, money and carbon.

The company employs a core team to service projects and works with satellite partners and specialists, with experience at a range of the UK’s top practices, to deliver the quality and support the needs of each unique project.
