“I had the pleasure to work with Murray on a major development in Edinburgh City Centre, he came in at a very difficult period for us and really went above an beyond his role, his quality, attention to detail and problem solving were very much welcomed on this project. I couldn’t recommend Murray highly enough, if i could give more than 5 stars i would and i hope to work with Murray in the future again.”

Terence Connolly

Site Agent, Edgewater Contracts

“Murray did an outstanding job of surveying a house I was looking to purchase. His price was very reasonable but the level of detail was exceptional, the survey document was clear and Murray was great to deal with throughout. I would without a doubt use MJ Hernon again”

Antony Miguel

Property Survey & Drone Inspection

“I have worked with Murray on two major projects in London. London Bridge Station redevelopment and HS2 enabling works in Euston. He was a highly valued member of the team with a broad range engineering and survey related skill sets. He has an excellent understanding of client requirements and is extremely good at turning his hand to new situations and challenges. Very good at problem solving and providing solutions. One of the first on the team sheet for me.”

Matthew Balson, Operations Director

The Erith Group

“M J Hernon Engineering Surveys undertook three drone surveys for the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) over a period of five months running from November 2025 – March 2026. The drone surveys produced orthomosaic and DSM information compiled and produced into a report provided to SEPA. This data was used by SEPA to compare the landscape over time for evidence of disturbances or change. MJ Hernon Engineering Surveys provided additional support in 3D modelling and expertise to enhance SEPAs interpretation of the drone survey data.”
