We are Designers, We are Enablers.

Whitby Wood Mills is an engineering consultancy.

We are independent, international and lateral-thinking. We work on the engineering design of buildings and urban infrastructure, providing professional services for clients working in all sectors. Our advice is based on the application of locally-relevant low-carbon construction technologies, and we work hard to develop practical cost-effective design, for projects of all sizes.

Our work is based on in-depth knowledge of best practice — locally, nationally and internationally — and an openness to innovation. Working closely with like-minded colleagues in diverse engineering fields, we make sure we can see the whole technical challenge a project presents.
