WHEN TO HIRE A CIVIL ENGINEER?
BEFORE YOU
BREAK GROUND
Seeking the input of a civil engineer is one of the most important steps when preparing a land development project. Engineers can assess the feasibility of your vision and survey the strengths and weaknesses of your land. We can help you avoid issues with flooding, poor drainage, the development of utilities, road design, and infrastructure.
DURING
CONSTRUCTION
Civil engineers are vital to the construction process to ensure the project follows the approved plans and remains up to code. Our goal at PACE is to design an accurate and complete set of plans that can be constructed on time and on budget with minimal to no changes.
PLANNING FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS
Whether you’re a developer or a homeowner, enhancing your property is an exciting process! Consulting with a civil engineer at the beginning of the project can help you develop a plan, design, and the necessary documents to begin construction.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do we get started?
The first step is to discuss the project basics, review available materials, and outline expectations. Once we talk through the project and understand the requirements, our team will develop a proposal that explicitly covers the scope of services and the associated fee. We will review this together, and if acceptable, begin the project!
Has your firm successfully worked on projects similar to mine?
Although each project is unique, the principles of engineering remain the same. Over the last 45 years, we've worked on virtually every type of project imaginable. We've likely worked on a project similar to yours. Feel free to check out our projects page or call our engineering team with specific questions.
What is your communication process? And what's your typical response time if I have questions?
Our commitment to customer service is unwavering. We view communication as one of the keys to project success, and we'll involve you throughout the project. Once your project starts, feel free to connect with your engineer/project manager at any time. When specific questions arise, we’re generally able to answer them within one business day.
How flexible is your work process? Can you accommodate changes in scope?
The flexibility of a project decreases as it nears completion. If a change in scope is unavoidable, we do our best to make the change in a way that won't extend the project deadline or incur additional charges. Having all the details ironed out at the beginning of the project is preferable, but we will work with you if a change in scope is necessary.
How do you articulate findings to your clients?
We are hired for our expertise but also to explain our findings and make the process collaborative. Engineering concepts can be complex, but our goal is to make them simple, actionable, and easy to understand.
Can you meet my project deadline?
Our industry is very deadline-driven, and we will work with you to outline the project and set realistic timelines that our team can meet. The best next step is to call our office and set up an appointment to discuss your project with an engineer. There is an excellent chance we can meet your deadline. The sooner we meet you, the better.
