The market in 2026

Every UK firm surveyed is short of MEP workers. Your programme does not have to wait for the market.

100%

of UK respondents report shortages of qualified mechanical, electrical and plumbing workers.

70%+

of 112 markets say contractor capacity for data centre projects is tightening or already overstretched.

10.88 GW

of UK data centre capacity announced or permitted, on top of about 2.0 GW live today.

Data centre work is absorbing a large share of London's leading MEP subcontractors, and some main contractors are now building their own in-house MEP teams. A managed Novus Projects team gives you that capacity without the hiring: qualified trades, a supervisor on every team, for the period you need.

The people on our teams

People who are looked after do better work.

We look after the people we send to your site, from the induction to the journey home. Teams that are looked after work safely and stay with the project.
