Introducing NU MEP, the London M&E division

NU MEP is the mechanical and electrical division of NU Projects. What it covers, how it is run, and who it works with across London.

MEP contractors in London. Heating, power, water and controls, designed and installed by our own engineers.

Why the division exists

NU MEP is the mechanical and electrical division of NU Projects. It exists to bring a higher standard of M&E delivery to London’s construction market. We are not a general contractor who also handles M&E. This is what we do, and we do it properly.

The construction industry has always had an M&E problem. Too many packages are handed to the lowest bidder and managed at arm’s length. They only get serious attention when something has already gone wrong. NU MEP exists to change that.

Who we are and what we do

NU MEP designs, installs and commissions mechanical and electrical services. That covers heating, cooling, ventilation, hot water and drainage. It also covers power, lighting, controls, data and fire safety systems. The engineers are Gas Safe registered and NICEIC qualified.

The division works on NU Projects residential jobs. It also works as a subcontractor to other main contractors and developers. The MEP page sets out the full scope.

The NU MEP standard

The NU standard is built on four principles. They are technical leadership, programme control, quality delivery, and clear accountability. These are not values on a wall. They are the practical requirements of any serious M&E operation.

Technical leadership means every package is managed by someone who understands it. Programme control means we coordinate with the full build programme, not just our scope. Quality delivery means we hold ourselves to the standard of our clients and contractors. And clear accountability means there is always a named person responsible. That person answers for every aspect of what we deliver.

These principles apply on every project, regardless of size or scope.

Start working with NU MEP

NU MEP is currently working with main contractors, developers and private clients. The work is across Central London and the home counties. Are you a main contractor looking to build a trusted M&E supply chain? Are you a developer who needs reliable M&E delivery on your next scheme? Are you a homeowner planning a significant project? We want to hear from you.

Tell us about the project, the programme and what you expect. We will then set out how NU MEP would run it.
