Structural, civil, environmental, water, geotechnical, agricultural, mechanical and electrical engineering, surveying, drafting and construction administration for Winter Haven projects, from one coordinated team in Winter Haven.
Winter Haven, Polk County
Engineers who know Winter Haven projects
Our office is at 1552 6th Street S.E., so a Winter Haven project gets the shortest trip of all: an engineer can be on your site the same day for a structural evaluation, a field visit during construction, or to pick up drawings. We work across the Chain of Lakes neighborhoods, the downtown core, the industrial parks along U.S. 17 and the farms and groves that surround the city.
Every drawing is prepared and sealed by a licensed professional engineer, licensed in all the lower 48 states, and designed to the Florida Building Code and the amendments Winter Haven's reviewing jurisdiction applies. If your project calls for more than one engineer, you still make one call: our full-service engineering firm covers every engineering service under one roof.
Common Winter Haven projects
- Residential additions, remodels and lanai or pool enclosures
- New homes and townhomes on infill lots
- Commercial buildouts and warehouses
- Agricultural buildings, barns and processing structures
- Lakefront foundations and seawall-adjacent structures
- Water and wastewater systems for developments and industry
Permitting in Winter Haven
The first thing we confirm on a Winter Haven project is who reviews it: a parcel with a Winter Haven mailing address can sit inside the city limits or in unincorporated Polk County, and each has its own application, checklist and amendments. Give us the exact property address and we match the sealed drawings to the authority that will stamp them.
- City of Winter Haven: Building permits for projects inside the city limits.
- Florida Building Commission: The Florida Building Code every sealed drawing follows.
Official sources, checked 2026-10-08. Confirm current requirements with the authority for your property; we do the same before we design.
How a Winter Haven project runs
Introduction
If you’re local, we meet at our office or yours. If not, we connect by Zoom or Meet to understand your project and your goals.
Concept drawings
We prepare a schematic of your project, bring your ideas onto paper, and send the conceptual drawing for your review and approval.
Design
Upon your approval, our engineers finalize the design in constant consultation with you, and you receive the documents for final approval.
Sign & seal
Our senior licensed professional engineer reviews, signs, and seals the drawings; you can pick them up locally or receive them by next-day courier.
Drafting services
Already have an engineer who did the design? Our drafting team prepares the new drawing based on your design and, if needed, reviews and seals it. Just need revisions to existing plans? Our expert drawing team will assist you.

Winter Haven questions
Do you visit the site in Winter Haven?
Yes. For structural evaluations, inspections during construction and field verification we come out in person; for a new design we can usually work from your survey, plans and photos. Local clients can also meet us at the office or pick up sealed drawings here.
Who issues my permit in Winter Haven?
Inside the city limits, the City of Winter Haven. Outside the limits but with a Winter Haven mailing address, it is usually Polk County. Give us the parcel address and we confirm the jurisdiction before we design, so the drawings go to the right reviewer the first time.
What should I send for a Winter Haven project?
The project address (so we can confirm the permitting jurisdiction), the type of work, the deliverables you need, and whatever you have: plans or architectural drawings, truss drawings, photos, a survey or site plan, and any existing engineering. The engineering services work request walks through all of it and you can attach files.
How long until I have sealed drawings?
It depends on the scope, and we tell you before we start. Our five-step process is introduction, concept drawings, design, sign and seal, then delivery: you can pick the sealed set up at our Winter Haven office or receive it by next-day courier.
