Complete MEP design service for seamless project workflow
As well as our 3D MEP co-ordination services, we also offer a complete MEP design service.
High-quality MEP design is essential for optimising building performance in HVAC systems, pipework, electrical and public health systems. High quality MEP co-ordination will significantly improve the efficiency of the installation process by allowing full modelling of the project before you even reach the site.
Our full MEP design service combines the expertise of experienced chartered engineers for the design work, with the precision of our in-house CAD and BIM specialists for the drawings and modelling.
Sectors we work with include: residential developments, commercial offices, industrial units, retail, hospitality, education and healthcare. We also work on refurbishment and fit-out projects.
Our clients rely on us for fully co-ordinated, construction-ready designs and building information models (BIM) for integrated MEP systems (where needed) that seamlessly plugging into your project workflow.
Why work with us?
Our MEP design service offers the expertise of chartered mechanical and electrical engineers, alongside the accuracy and experience of trained CAD and BIM technicians. Our output is ideal for architects, contractors and developers.
We use Revit and AutoCAD to deliver construction-ready designs that are accurate and fully co-ordinated. We also provide full BIM delivery, with high-quality 3D modelling for complex MEP systems and construction projects.
Use our design services to ensure your MEP systems can be designed and installed alongside structural and architectural elements, allowing you to resolve problems at the drafting stage and avoid errors or delays on site.

What is the difference between MEP design services and MEP co-ordination services?
-MEP design involves calculating the size and requirements of MEP systems, as well as checking they meet safety and building code requirements. MEP co-ordination is where the designs are drafted using CAD or BIM and the HVAC, electrical, fire prevention and plumbing systems are checked to ensure they are no clashes between them or with structural elements.
How do these MEP services help in the integration of various building systems?
-The design stage, completed by experienced chartered engineers, establishes the optimum systems for the building and their specifications. The co-ordination stage, completed by expert CAD or BIM technicians prevents clashes and supports efficient construction processes between different contractors.
What software do you use for creating MEP drawings?
-We use the industry-leading software: AutoCAD and Revit.
Why should I choose MultiCAD for 3D MEP services?
-Our clients rely on us for high quality and reliable outputs, delivered with a quick turnaround. Our services keep things moving and save our clients time and money by streamlining their projects.
Why should I choose MultiCAD for 3D MEP drawings and coordination services?
-MultiCAD has a proven track record of delivering high-quality, accurate MEP drawings with a quick turnaround. Our MEP & BIM services can help streamline your construction project, saving time and money.
Can I outsource all my MEP requirements to MultiCAD?
-Yes, you can. We have a full range of MEP & BIM services with a lot of in-house expertise and access to experienced, qualified contractors when needed.
Does MultiCAD’s MEP design service include HVAC and fire protection?
-Yes, our MEP services cover both HVAC and fire protection systems and we deliver integrated models for early clash detection for HVAC, fire protection systems, electrical systems, ventilation, plantrooms and more.
What assessments can MultiCAD carry out during the design process?
-Our expert technicians will carry out the relevant assessments to ensure compliance and smooth operations of the final building. These include electrical load assessments, energy modelling, daylight and sunlight assessments, part O assessments (TM53/TM59), part F assessments for ventilation.
Does MultiCAD prepare MEP bills of quantities?
-Yes, we do. We will prepare a detailed bill of quantities required for your MEP drawings including units and prices.
Does MultiCAD support with Building Regulation Part L and Part F compliance?
-We do. Our MEP designs support compliance with the 2021 amendments to Building Regulations, Approved Documents Part L (Conservation of Power) and Part F (Ventilation). We offer Part L calculations (including SAP, SBEM, DSM, and BRUKL outputs) and Part F assessments, including ventilation strategy reports.
Does MultiCAD offer both 2D and 3D MEP modelling?
-Yes we do 2D and 3D MEP design. Let us know what you need and we'll deliver it.
