Dixon Hurst Ltd

Brilliant service and fast delivery. Excellent team

In 2016 I came across Dixon Hurst website and saw a graduate engineer role for their Hove office. Back then I was a new graduate, with a an upper 2.1 BEng (Hons) Civil engineering. After seeing the advertised position, I decided to go in person, with my CV and cover letter which I had spent considerable time tailoring to the job.When I got there, I was met by this middle aged lady with dark hair and I can only say she gave me one of the coldest and unwelcoming reception, one that I will remember for a very long time. I explained why I was there and tried to hand her my CV and cover letter but she was quick to interrupt me, saying 'this is a structural firm and you are a civil engineer, we don't recruit civil engineers' I was shocked and did not know how to respond, since I never expected such reception.I live locally and whenever I go past this place, I remember that day.I leave with this message to Dixon Hurt Ltd:Please be considerate, don't feel threatened when some graduate or any other person comes to your door with their CV / cover letter asking for opportunity / chance.

Excellent service, professional detailed reports given in a timely fashion. Will be sure to use again. Highly recommended!

Another project successfully delivered on time and budget by Nick at Dixon Hurst.Creating six rooms across three floors incl. a loft conversion required the creative solution of a new spine and staircase allowing for minimum steels to the existing three bed house.The build team were thankful for the insightful simplicity that saved their labour and time. The clear precise calcs were turned around quickly. I look forward to working with DH on the next projects.

I use DIxon Hurst frequently for all our structural work, they are always able to do site visit's at short notice and if any issues arise they are always quick to resolve / redesign as necessary. I would recommend.

Luck of communication from office and Nick himself. This time they have showed zero professionalism when it came to the work they were doing. Cause a massive delay on the project with out a single explanation or even an apology from them. The office were very rude when asked why have we haven’t had a respond after sending email after email to them. We had paid the fees for the project 9 Osmand gardens. Nicks who took the project seem to always try and avoid given out anything, although we had paid them. Now two and half months in yet we have nothing on the table apart from a small section of the design which is not enough and the job isn’t required to be done now. We have had excuse after excuse from nick. I believe he is not experienced enough to do a job at this nature but we should have been told before fee were taken as we would have look for someone else. We will seek legal action against them. Very unprofessional.

The best around in Sussex , quick professional. I often use them regularly in line with my business as I am a architectural designer .
