How a project works with us
Consultation
Tell us about the property and the approvals you need, and we will outline the requirements.
Proposal
You receive a written scope and fee before design work begins.
Design
Plans and calculations are prepared and sealed by a licensed professional engineer.
Approval
We submit to the county, city, MUD or fire marshal and respond to comments through approval.
Design, permitting and code compliance from one firm
Most projects require more than one type of approval. A small commercial site may need a plat, a drainage plan with detention, an on-site wastewater design and a fire marshal review before it can open. We manage each of these under one roof, so every element is coordinated and you have a single point of contact.
We also build what we design. Our installation crews construct the engineered wastewater systems we design, which keeps our plans practical and constructible.
