SUDS STRATEGY
SUDS STRATEGY FOR YOU
We deliver innovative, technically sound, and robust SuDS and drainage solutions that are both cost-effective and practical to implement.
Working with you from the planning stage through to construction, we provide all the necessary SuDS strategy plans and reports, ensuring tailored support every step of the way.
Our team works closely with Local Authorities and Lead Local Flood Authorities (LLFAs) across the UK, giving us a clear understanding of their specific requirements, particularly when it comes to SuDS and drainage strategy reports.
Thanks to these established relationships, we’re able to produce SuDS reports and designs that fully support your planning applications or help discharge planning conditions, often within tight timescales.
We also provide combined Flood Risk Assessment (FRA) and SuDS Reports, or FRA and Drainage Strategy Reports, delivered efficiently and to the highest professional standards.
BELOW GROUND DRAINAGE
BELOW GROUND DRAINAGE, FOUL AND SURFACE WATER AND SUDS DESIGN
Nimbus provides comprehensive below ground drainage, foul and surface water, and SuDS (Sustainable Drainage Systems) design services to support Construction or Building Regulations submissions, as requested by Local Planning Authorities or Lead Local Flood Authorities (LLFAs).
Our team delivers robust foul and surface water and SuDS drainage designs for construction projects of all sizes, from small-scale developments to large, complex schemes.
Partnering with Nimbus means gaining access to a reliable, approachable team that embraces every challenge with enthusiasm, no matter the scale of your project. With over 90% of our business generated through word of mouth, we pride ourselves on building lasting relationships based on trust and collaboration.
Whether you’d like an informal discussion about a proposed development or require specialist drainage design services, we’d love to hear from you.
What Our Client’s Say
“We are extremely grateful to Nimbus Engineering for their invaluable assistance in securing planning permission for our development of four new homes in Roydon, Essex.
Sadia and her team expertly navigated the challenges of a tricky site on top of a hill, where neighbours raised several drainage objections. The thorough calculations, reports, and design input provided by Nimbus ensured strong support from the Epping Forest District Council drainage officer. This even included a robust rebuttal of the neighbour objections, which was incorporated into the council’s report for the Planning Committee, leading to a animous decision in favour of the scheme. We highly recommend Nimbus for their skill, adaptability, and rapid turnaround—qualities that are crucial for the success of any development, large or small.”
“I have really enjoyed working with Nimbus. Sadia is extremely knowledgeable and is always willing to go out to her way to help clients. The speed at which Nimbus produce their work is impressive and the prices are extremely competitive. Special mention to Ryan Herity after we worked closely together on a couple of schemes. Always happy to pick up the phone andanswer questions. He provided solutions that led to drainage officer approvals – you can’t ask any more than that!”
“I have used Nimbus Engineering Consultants for several years now. The service is second to none. Sadia effectively communicates throughout the entire process. Nimbus has never let me down. I would wholeheartedly recommend Nimbus for any and all SuDS advice. Nimbus shoot from the hip, and make my life easy, knowing if I have engaged them, I do not have to ever worry.”
“I, George Christodoulou am very happy with the work Nimbus have carried out for me over the last 10 years. They always deliver a good service at a very good price and always high quality reports and fast turn around. They have carried out work on many of my projects in Croydon and I have never had a problem with their work. I will continue to use them as I am expanding my business now. And would highly recommend them to other developers.”
