Meet Nicole
BEng (Hons) CEng MIStructE
NSB Structures is led by Nicole Beaumont, an experienced Chartered Structural Engineer working in the Guildford area and the Home Counties. Nicole has successfully completed over 800 projects, and is known for being straight-talking, easy to work with, and genuinely invested in every project she takes on — whether that's a kitchen extension in Godalming or a commercial scheme in Guildford town centre.
Nicole is a Chartered Engineer, Member of IStructE and registered with the Engineering Council.
How we work
NSB Structures
Every project is different, but the way Nicole works stays the same. She gets involved early, asks the right questions, and stays with you from the first conversation through to the final sign-off. No handoffs, no junior engineers picking up your job halfway through — just one experienced Chartered Structural Engineer who knows your project inside out.
Early involvement
The best structural engineering happens before anyone has broken ground. Nicole prefers to get involved at the design stage, working alongside your architect or directly with you to make sure the structural approach is right from the start. Catching problems early saves time, money and stress further down the line.
Clear planning
Structural engineering can feel technical and intimidating if you're not familiar with it. Nicole's approach is to keep things plain and straightforward — explaining what she's found, what it means and what needs to happen next in language that makes sense. You'll always know where your project stands.
Thorough delivery
Every set of calculations Nicole produces is thorough, clearly presented and ready to go — whether that's for a planning application, a building control submission or your builder on site. Nothing leaves her desk until it's right.
Local knowledge
NSB Structures is based in Guildford and works across Surrey, Sussex and the wider Home Counties. We understand your local planning environment, the building stock — from Victorian terraces to large period homes — and the specific environmental considerations that come with working in the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and on listed buildings across the region.
