Brookbanks welcome Reuby & Stagg to our Team!
Brookbanks welcome Reuby & Stagg to our team! An exciting move to deliver Structural Services for our clients...
In August 2023, Brookbanks completed the purchase of Reuby and Stagg, a prestigious Structural and Civil Engineering Consultancy! This is a huge milestone for Brookbanks, and an opportunity to enhance the holistic services and value we add for our clients and their projects. Reuby & Stagg founder, Malcolm Reuby, and lead directors Chris Vivian and Mike Dewson remain in their current roles with the business.
REUBY & STAGG (a Brookbanks company) has been delivering world class Structural and Civil Engineering solutions across the UK for over 40 years, pushing the boundaries to meet the project vision for their clients.
The business has a great reputation of leading the designs on a variety of prestigious buildings, including the Americas Cup Building together with high-rise residential, commercial, industrial and regeneration projects in central London and other major cities across the UK. Reuby & Stagg has a very similar approach to Brookbanks in that they drive value and push the boundaries on their clients’ projects. Their culture and approach to client service aligns extremely well with our own and was one of the key drivers in our attraction to them.
The team has established an industry wide reputation for providing lean and cost-effective structural engineering designs. We look forward to sharing this expertise with all our clients and enhancing the Brookbanks services and skills further.
In September 2023, Brookbanks headed down to our new office location in the South to meet the new team and share our vision going forward.
We can’t wait to watch our teams deliver great outcomes for all of our clients!

Delivering EV Charging Infrastructure: Helping Developments Meet Today’s Demands and Tomorrow’s Expectations
February 25, 2026
At Brookbanks, we know EV charging becomes far more manageable when it’s approached as part of a wider development picture rather than an isolated task. Rising regulatory demands, limited capacity, cost pressures and the realities of underground or enclosed parking all interact in ways that can affect programme, viability and long‑term performance. This article looks at the recurring challenges we see across residential, commercial and mixed‑use projects and the practical steps that help developments meet Part S requirements, manage grid limitations, integrate load‑balancing and smart‑charging systems, and plan for solar PV and battery storage. The aim is to provide clear, grounded insight that helps teams design EV strategies that genuinely stand up to modern development demands.
Our February 2026 Newsletter
February 23, 2026
Welcome to our February 2026 newsletter. In this issue, we will be sharing what’s been happening over the past month, including our two new podcasts highlighting the common pitfalls around S278 and S38 highway approvals, and what the Planning & Infrastructure Bill means for developers in England and Wales, with special guest Mark Harris from HBF Wales. We’re also looking back on our latest article, which explored how unspent S106 and CIL funds create opportunities to review, challenge and optimise legacy obligations, and why combining planning expertise with commercial insight is key to unlocking value. Plus, we are rounding off by showcasing one of our team's achievements.
Brookbanks Webinar: De-risking Infrastructure Design
February 18, 2026
Earlier this month, we hosted a lunch-time webinar exploring how infrastructure design can be strengthened well before construction begins. Led by our Civil Engineering specialists Ryan Meade and Toby Crayden, the conversation focused on the practical steps that help to reduce uncertainty and make the transition from design to delivery smoother and more predictable. Their session looked at the real‑world challenges that commonly appear between early drawings and activity on site. Ryan and Toby shared their experience of how early awareness, clearer coordination and the right conversations at the right time can make a measurable difference to project outcomes.
