Mechanical

Delivery of a full range of mechanical systems in shell and core, plant replacement, CAT A or CAT B fitout environments.

01 · Overview

The mechanical backbone of a building — designed and built by one team.

RMS designs, installs and commissions the full mechanical package: heating and chilled water, ventilation and air conditioning, pipework distribution and central plant. As a design-and-build contractor we hold the whole system — from load calculations and plant selection to coordination, installation and witnessed commissioning.

Most of our work lands in live, occupied estates — teaching buildings, hospitals, trading floors — where phasing, acoustics and clean handover matter as much as the engineering itself.

Yes. RMS is a design-and-build contractor — we take the mechanical package from load calculations and plant selection through BIM coordination, installation and witnessed commissioning, so a single team owns the whole system.

Most of our work is in occupied estates — teaching buildings, hospitals and trading floors. We phase the works, run disruptive activities out of hours and around key periods, and plan every isolation so the building keeps running throughout.

The mechanical scope includes Ventilation, AHU, FCU, Chilled Beams, VAV, heating and chilled water systems, VRF/VRV/DX Refrigeration Systems, and central plant — ASHPs, heat exchangers and air-cooled chillers.
