Local context
Newcastle’s height safety estate is anchored by the Quayside regeneration that has reshaped both banks of the Tyne over the past two decades, the substantial university and NHS estate, and the Tyneside industrial portfolio extending across Wallsend, Walker, and the wider North East. The Quayside developments and the Sage Gateshead represent current-standard new build with eyebolt and mansafe systems specified at construction. The Newcastle University and Northumbria University estates include both heritage city centre buildings and modern academic and laboratory facilities, each with different access requirements. The Royal Victoria Infirmary and the Freeman Hospital anchor a large NHS estate across Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
Beyond Newcastle itself, our coverage extends to Sunderland, Durham, and Teesside, including the petrochemical and process industries around Middlesbrough and Wilton, where the height safety regime is particularly stringent. Engineers cover the full North East region from the London office.
