Mechanical and Electrical Engineering in Preston

Walker Electrical Developments provides combined Mechanical and Electrical Engineering services for industrial projects across Preston and the PR2 area. Many industrial installations require both mechanical and electrical input, and managing these as separate contracts from separate contractors adds coordination complexity and risk. Our combined M and E service gives clients a single point of accountability across both disciplines, simplifying communication, reducing interface risk, and delivering a cleaner, better-coordinated final installation.

More Information

A Single Team Across Both Disciplines

Separating mechanical and electrical work between different contractors creates interface problems. Who is responsible when the mechanical arrangement does not suit the electrical installation? Who manages the programme when one trade overruns and delays the other? With Walker Electrical Developments delivering both, these questions have a single answer. Our team plans and sequences the mechanical and electrical elements together from the start, and any issues that arise are resolved internally rather than between competing contractors.

Industrial Applications From Motors to Pipework

Our mechanical and electrical engineering service covers industrial applications including motor installations and alignment, pump and fan installations, pipework connections to electrically driven plant, cable containment and tray installation, mechanical equipment mounting and securing, and the mechanical aspects of panel and control system installations. We work on new installations and on modifications or upgrades to existing industrial plant across Preston and Lancashire.

Project Planning and Technical Coordination

M and E engineering projects require careful planning to deliver on time. We produce detailed method statements and risk assessments for all works, coordinate with our clients on access and outage requirements, and manage the programme from start to finish. Our engineers are experienced in working within the constraints of operational industrial environments, including working to planned shutdown windows, maintaining safe working areas alongside live plant, and completing work to agreed programmes even under time pressure.

We delivered a combined M and E package for a new compressor house installation at a manufacturing facility near Garstang. The project involved the mechanical installation of three industrial compressors including base frame fixing, flexible connections, and pipework, combined with the complete electrical installation including three phase supplies, control panels, and instrumentation. Delivering both elements under a single contract simplified the programme significantly and the handover was completed ahead of the original schedule.
