Mechanical & Electrical & Civil & Hydraulics & Fabrication & Pumps.
Six engineering disciplines under one roof in Martlesham. We design it, build it, lift it in with our own crane lorries and keep it running, so you get one team, one programme and one number to call, from first survey to final certificate.

FleetWhat We Do
Use us for one discipline or for all six. Either way, you get engineers who plan around the trades either side of them, because those trades are usually us as well.
Mechanical installations from water services and process pipework to storage tanks, pumps and plant.
NICEIC registered engineers, from new mains supplies and substations to lighting and specialist system design.
An approved sewage contractor for a leading regional water company, working on water supply and wastewater.
LOLER testing and thorough examinations by an ALLMI member, at your premises or at our site.
Bespoke work from design to installation, in mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium.
Clean and waste water pumps supplied, installed, maintained and repaired across East Anglia.
Why It Matters
Most engineering jobs need three or four trades. Hire them separately and you become the project manager, the scheduler and the referee. Hire M&C and that becomes our job.
The usual way to buy a multi-trade job
Every discipline on one contract
Case in Point
A fully mobile ferric dosing plant for Cliff Quay Sewage Treatment Works in Ipswich: the tank, two inverter-driven pumps, PLC and HMI controls, lighting, an emergency shower and a 130 m bunded pipe with no joins. One team, eight weeks from brief to commissioning.
Read the Cliff Quay Case StudyHow a Job Runs
We visit, listen and measure, then draw up the solution and a clear scope before anything is ordered.
Frames, supports, guards and bespoke steelwork are made by our own fabricators, ready to fit first time.
Our crews and crane lorries put it in place, then connect and commission it, with the mechanical, electrical and civil work in one sequence.
We test, inspect and hand over the certificates, from electrical certification to LOLER reports.
Planned servicing keeps it running, and our mobile fleet responds when something fails.
Where We Work
Water, power, rail, industry and homes all rely on equipment that has to keep working. Keeping it working is what we do.
Pumping stations, dosing plants, sewers, pipework and chambers at treatment works and recycling centres.
PumpsMechanicalCivil
New mains supplies, substations, lighting and controls, plus the civils and steelwork around them.
ElectricalCivilFabrication
Civil works, structures, fabrication and mechanical support for rail infrastructure.
CivilFabricationMechanical
Ports, recycling and manufacturing sites: bespoke machinery, hydraulics, fabrication and maintenance.
MechanicalHydraulicsFabrication
Sewer connections, pumps, electrics and civil works for homes and private clients.
PumpsElectricalCivil
Hydraulics and Lifting
Tail lifts, passenger lifts and lorry-mounted cranes must be thoroughly examined by a competent person at set intervals. As ALLMI members, our engineers examine them at your premises anywhere in East Anglia or at our site, then service and repair what they find.
Pick the equipment and the date of its last thorough examination.
A guide only, based on the maximum intervals in LOLER Regulation 9. An examination scheme drawn up by a competent person can set different intervals, and the last report may name an earlier date.
Recent Work
A few recent projects from across our disciplines. The full list lives on our Case Studies Page.
Design · Fabrication · Mechanical · Electrical
We designed and built a steel bund around a ferric dosing road tanker at our Newbourne yard, craned the two as one unit to Clacton Water Recycling Centre, then connected and commissioned it. Ten people, six weeks.

Mechanical · Pumps
Old pipework out and new pipework in, with non-return valves and grit pumps, inside a working pumping station in Colchester.
Read the Case Study
Civil · Fabrication · Lifting
Three new bridge sections designed and fabricated from the structural survey, a fourth refurbished, then delivered on our own crane lorry and fitted by our site team.
Read the Case StudyOur mobile fleet, crane lorries and emergency response units carry the people, tools and kit for mechanical, electrical, pump and lifting faults. Tell us what has happened and where, and we will tell you when we can be with you.
About M&C
Established in 1985, M&C Engineering has grown into a team of skilled engineers at Kirrawah Site on Newbourne Road, Martlesham, with our own workshop and yard.
We provide a full turnkey service in mechanical, electrical, hydraulics and civil engineering to the utilities and construction industries and to industrial and private clients: from initial design and fabrication through to installation, service, repair and maintenance.
We run a fully equipped mobile fleet, our own crane lorries and emergency response units, and we are an approved sewage contractor for a leading regional water company. Our accreditations cover quality, the environment, utilities supply, lifting, electrical work and our fleet.
Engineers, electricians and fabricators who like variety get plenty of it here, and our apprentices go far: one reached the WorldSkills UK national finals in 2024.
Yes. Plenty of clients use us for a single discipline, such as a pump repair, a fabricated part or a LOLER examination. The benefit of one team is there when a job needs more than one trade, but it is never a condition.
We are based in Martlesham, near Ipswich, and work across East Anglia, London and the Midlands, including treatment works and water recycling centres in Ipswich, Colchester and Clacton. For LOLER examinations we come to your premises anywhere in East Anglia, or you can bring vehicles to our site.
At least every 6 months when it is used to lift people, and that includes an operator riding the platform. Equipment that only lifts goods needs examining at least every 12 months, unless a written examination scheme sets a different interval.
Use the LOLER checker to work out your next date.
Yes. Our mobile fleet and emergency response units cover pump, mechanical, electrical and lifting faults. Call 0845 6000 002 and tell us what has happened.
We hold ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification, Achilles UVDB verification, ALLMI and NICEIC accreditation, and FORS Bronze for our fleet. Ask us for certificates and insurance details for your supplier records.
Both. We can build to your drawings and specification, or survey the site and design the solution ourselves, from a single fabricated part to a complete installation.
