THE IDH DIFFERENCE

Since day one, the IDH philosophy has been to provide the highest quality professional advice and services in design engineering. Our founding engineers, Tim Burt and Wojciech Wisniowski, recognised the need for a unique blend of temporary works engineering and structural site engineering experience, and IDH opened its doors in 2011.

We’ve continued to grow our expert engineering team with this in mind, expanding into different territories but always retaining our attention to detail and impeccable customer service. With a staff of more than 40 qualified engineers, including some of the top minds in formwork design, we champion academic knowledge blended with practical skills.

Whether we’re working with contractors or subcontractors, we take our clients on a journey from conception to delivery, through re-design and any changes in build sequence, always guiding with our expertise.

Opening in the UK a decade ago, we’ve expanded into Ireland, Poland and the Middle East.
