About GLA

Your Engineering Partner from Day One

GLA Consulting Engineers believe the best projects are built on strong relationships, clear communication, and genuine technical expertise.

Our story

Practical Engineering. Personal Service

GLA Consulting Engineers was founded by Glenn Armstrong CEng MICE — a Chartered Engineer with over 10 years of experience delivering civil and structural engineering solutions across the UK. Glenn established GLA with a clear purpose: to offer clients something the larger practices often can't — direct access to a Chartered Engineer who is personally invested in the success of their project.

Every project at GLA Consulting Engineers is overseen by Glenn, ensuring a consistent, high-quality service from initial enquiry through to project completion. Our focus is on providing clear communication, practical engineering solutions and a responsive service that clients can rely on at every stage of their project.

With over 150 projects completed across residential, commercial, industrial, healthcare, education, retail, hospitality and infrastructure, Glenn brings the same commitment to quality and clarity to every commission — whether it's a single-storey extension or a complex structural assessment.
