Our Services

Engineering Survey

We provide engineering-focused topographic surveys and site evaluation to support accurate, buildable civil design, integrating field data with engineering judgment to produce reliable base mapping and inform grading, drainage, access, and constructability decisions.

  • Construction staking for site layout and verification during construction

  • Topographic surveys to support civil engineering design needs

  • Quantity takeoffs and cut/fill analyses for grading and earthwork evaluation

  • Field verification of site conditions relevant to engineering design during construction

  • UAV (drone) imagery to supplement site evaluation and documentation

Civil Design

We deliver practical, buildable civil engineering designs for residential, commercial, and public projects. Our work integrates grading and drainage, stormwater management, utilities, and roadway improvements with site constraints, regulatory requirements, and constructability considerations to support efficient design and permitting.

  • Site civil design for residential, commercial, and public projects

    • Grading and drainage design supported by geotechnical, hydrologic and hydraulic analyses

    • Stormwater management design, including LID features, detention systems, BMPs, and erosion control measures

    • ADA-compliant site improvement design, including accessible routes, parking, and site grading

    • Site utility layout coordinated with discipline-specific consultants

  • Roadways, crossings, and access improvements

    • Culverts and stream crossings, including fish and wildlife passage design components

    • Driveways and access road improvements, including site circulation planning

  • Structural civil elements

    • Small foundations, retaining walls, culvert headwalls, signage, and light site structures

  • Engineering design documentation

    • Basis of design reports and technical memos, technical specifications, opinion of probable construction costs, and construction bid documentation

Permit Assistance

We help clients navigate the permitting process by preparing clear, accurate engineering documents and coordinating directly with agencies. From grading permits to stormwater compliance and encroachment approvals, we support projects through each step of review and plan-check.

  • Preparation of drawings and technical documentation to support agency review

  • Stormwater compliance documentation, including WPCPs, ESCPs, and QSD/QSP-related support

  • Grading permit submittals, including supporting calculations for earthwork quantities and technical compliance

  • Encroachment permit support for city, county, and Caltrans jurisdictions

  • Technical responses to agency comments, including plan-check corrections and revisions

  • Agency coordination with planning, building, environmental, and public works departments

Construction Support

We provide engineering guidance throughout construction to ensure the project is built in alignment with the design intent. Our services include construction observations, responses to RFIs, review of submittals, field evaluations, and preparation of as-built documentation based on contractor-provided information.

  • Construction observation and inspections, including documentation and reporting logs

  • Responses to RFIs (Requests for Information) related to civil work

  • Review of civil-related submittals for general conformance with the design intent

  • As-built / record drawing preparation based on contractor-provided information

  • Technical guidance for field changes and unforeseen site conditions

  • Coordination with contractors, consultants, inspectors, and agency representatives during construction
