# David Edwards & Associates
David Edwards & Associates is a structural engineering practice based in Clevedon, specialising in residential engineering solutions across the Bristol, Bath and North Somerset areas. Established in 1985, the firm is led by four Chartered Engineers: Peter Hine, Paul Dawson, Steve Holmes and Jeremy Somodi, who bring decades of combined experience to every project.
The practice serves homeowners, architects, builders and developers requiring structural design expertise for residential projects. They tackle everything from new build construction and structural alterations to loft conversions and complex foundation work. What sets them apart is their deep understanding of local ground conditions and construction methods—both for contemporary builds and historical properties—built through years of working closely with local building control, architects and construction professionals.
Rather than pursuing a one-size-fits-all approach, David Edwards & Associates prides itself on delivering pragmatic, cost-effective solutions to structural challenges, regardless of project scale. Their expertise in specialist foundations, including rafts, piles and ground beams, demonstrates their ability to solve complex technical problems that require precision engineering.
Beyond design work, they provide comprehensive structural reports that give clients clarity on their properties' condition and requirements. The team's established relationships within the local construction industry mean clients benefit from informed recommendations grounded in practical, regional knowledge.
