Why Choose ODM?

Experienced Professionals

Our team consists of fully qualified, Gas Safe registered engineers and industry veterans with decades of combined experience. We are DBS checked and trained to work in high-pressure commercial environments, ensuring every project is delivered to the highest safety and quality standards.

Customised Solutions

We know that no two buildings are alike. We avoid “off-the-shelf” answers, instead offering bespoke mechanical designs tailored to your building’s unique layout, usage patterns, and budget. Whether you need a retrofit for a heritage property or a modern system for a new build, we engineer the right fit for you.

Prompt Service

Downtime costs money. That’s why we prioritise responsiveness and efficiency. With our strategically located base in Northfleet, we can deploy engineers quickly across Kent and London to address urgent mechanical failures, ensuring your business gets back up and running with minimal delay.

Preventative Maintenance

The best way to fix a problem is to prevent it from happening. We offer bespoke maintenance contracts that include regular inspections, compliance testing, and system optimisation. This proactive approach extends the lifespan of your assets, improves energy efficiency, and prevents costly emergency repairs down the line.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly are Mechanical Building Services (MBS)?

Mechanical Building Services refer to the systems that make a building functional, comfortable, and safe for its occupants. This encompasses the design, installation, and maintenance of infrastructure such as heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), plumbing, drainage, and water supply. Essentially, MBS turns a static structure into a living, breathing environment.

Why is professional HVAC design critical for new construction and refurbishments?

Professional HVAC design ensures that your building maintains optimal air quality, temperature, and humidity, which directly impacts occupant health and productivity. A poorly designed system can lead to “sick building syndrome,” high energy bills, and frequent breakdowns. Expert design optimises airflow and load calculations to ensure efficiency and compliance with strict energy legislation.

How do Mechanical Building Services contribute to a building's sustainability goals?

Modern mechanical services are pivotal to achieving Net Zero and sustainability targets. By upgrading to high-efficiency boilers, integrating heat pumps, and utilising smart Building Management Systems (BMS), we can significantly reduce a building’s energy consumption and carbon emissions. This not only helps the environment but also lowers operational costs and improves the building’s EPC rating.
