Engineering with intent.
Providing precise, efficient & constructible civil engineering design solutions from concept through to construction.
Rift Consulting brings a clear, considered approach to engineering.
With over 15 years’ experience across drainage, infrastructure and site development, we support developers and design teams in delivering efficient, buildable solutions. From initial feasibility through to detailed design, our focus is on precision, coordination and practical outcomes.
Drainage
From surface water strategies to full drainage design, we deliver compliant, buildable solutions that work with the site rather than against it. Whether you’re navigating SuDS requirements or coordinating with adoptable sewers, we bring clarity to one of construction’s most complex disciplines.
Levels
Getting levels right from the outset saves time, money, and headaches downstream. We produce detailed level strategies and earthworks designs that balance cut and fill, protect finished floor levels, and keep your project commercially viable from day one.
Roads
We design roads that are safe, adoptable, and fit for purpose — from initial access strategy through to full geometric design and Section 38/278 coordination. Whether serving a single development or a wider infrastructure network, we get the detail right.
Service Coordination
Utilities can make or break a programme. We manage the coordination of all below and above-ground services, working with utility providers and contractors to resolve clashes early and keep your project moving.
Planning Reports
We produce clear, thorough civil engineering reports to support your planning applications — including drainage strategies and flood risk assessments; we ensure compliance with local and national requirements, and produce designs tailored to the proposed scheme.
Feasibility Studies
Our civil engineering feasibility studies assess below-ground services, site levels, and infrastructure constraints to determine project viability before design begins. We investigate existing utility networks, drainage and levels data, and capacity limitations to flag potential conflicts and risks early, giving you a clear, evidence-based picture to inform site selection and design direction.
