Introducing NU MEP: the London M&E division built on standards

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.

Why the division exists

NU MEP is the mechanical and electrical division of NU Projects, established 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, managed at arm’s length, and only given 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, drainage, 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 and 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: 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 own scope. Quality delivery means we hold ourselves to the same standard as the clients and contractors we work with. And clear accountability means there is always a named person responsible 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 across Central London and the home counties. If you are a main contractor looking to build a trusted M&E supply chain, a developer who needs reliable M&E delivery on your next scheme, or a homeowner planning a significant project, we want to hear from you.

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

To talk to the team, send two lines through the contact form. You can also call 020 7731 6841. We usually reply within a few hours, weekends included.
