Our Expertise


Lawler Consulting is a building services engineering consultancy specialising in the design, coordination and delivery of Mechanical and Electrical (M&E) systems for new-build and refurbishment projects across the built environment.

Building Services Engineering That Delivers Better Buildings

For more than 46 years, Lawler Consulting has helped shape the built environment through innovative Mechanical & Electrical Building Services Engineering.

Having successfully delivered over 6,000 commissions across Ireland and the UK, we work with developers, architects, contractors, public bodies and building owners to create buildings that are efficient, sustainable and designed to perform throughout their lifecycle.

From early feasibility and planning through design, construction, commissioning and operational performance, we provide practical engineering solutions that balance technical excellence with commercial realities.

Integrated Building Services Engineering

Buildings today are expected to do more than ever before.

They must provide comfortable, healthy environments for occupants while meeting increasingly demanding standards for energy efficiency, sustainability, digital connectivity and long-term operational performance.

Our multidisciplinary engineering team delivers fully integrated Mechanical & Electrical Building Services Engineering, coordinating every aspect of building performance into one cohesive design that supports the needs of clients, occupants and building owners alike.

Early Design & Planning

The decisions made during the earliest stages of a project have the greatest influence on building performance, construction efficiency and long-term operational costs.

We work alongside project teams from concept stage, providing strategic engineering advice that helps inform planning, coordinate design and reduce project risk before construction begins.

Our expertise includes:

  • Mechanical & Electrical Building Services Design
  • Building Services Feasibility Studie
  • Utilities Infrastructure Coordination
  • Planning Support
  • Daylight & Sunlight Assessments
  • Glint & Glare Assessments
  • Public Lighting Design
  • Building Regulations Compliance
  • Technical Due Diligence
Detailed Design & Project Delivery

As projects progress, our engineers develop coordinated building services designs that integrate seamlessly with architectural, structural and specialist disciplines.

Working collaboratively throughout design development and construction, we help deliver solutions that are practical to build, efficient to operate and aligned with programme, budget and project objectives.
