Freyssinet Limited in short

Freyssinet Limited is a specialist structural and civil engineering contractor run from its Telford head office at St James House, covering structural repair, post-tensioning, bearings, expansion joints and jacking [1] [2]. Its accreditations page is unusually full, listing ISO certification alongside industry memberships such as CHAS, CARES and RISQS [3]. The company has been active for decades, which makes its history easy to check [4].

Reviews of Freyssinet Limited tell a cooler story than the credentials: a middling Google rating from a small set of ratings sits against the heavyweight accreditations [5]. No prices or insurance details are published either [1] [2]. Our opinion: it suits specialist repair and strengthening work rather than domestic extensions, where its Telford base and long record count for most.

Our verdict

Our judgement: Freyssinet suits you if you need a long-established specialist for structural repair, strengthening or post-tensioning rather than a domestic extension practice [1] [4]. Its accreditations page is unusually full [3]. Set against that: a middling Google rating and no published prices. The Telford head office takes enquiries by phone, email or form [2].
