Are you able to perform surveying, geotechnical analysis or architecture design in-house?
We are a full-service civil engineering firm, so our abilities in-house apply directly to those duties.

What information should I have ready for an initial discovery call?
All we’ll need is your property address or parcel ID number, plus any reports, studies or previous permits. From there, we can glean the information we need to answer your questions anad provide a scope of services for your project.
What strategies do you use to ensure environmental compliance?
We work with one of the best environmental consultantsn in the business. Prior to our meetings with them, we conduct a due diligence on the project as well as a permit search history through the water management district to assess environmental impact and ensure compliance.
Is a project ever too big or too small for AH Burkett to take on?
No project is too big or too small! We can work with most budgets and would be happy to show examples of similarly sized projects with their final budgets to give you an idea of what your project might cost.

Who will be our primary point of contact throughout the engineering process?
Your project will be assigned to a project manager who will be your point of contact throughout the process. If there are any changes in personnel during the scope of your project, you’ll be notified as soon as possible and introduced to your new point of contact to ensure continuation of services.
What reporting mechanisms do you have in place to provide updates to your clients about project status?
We provide our clients consistent updates stemming from municipal meeting updates, latest comments on plans and designs, as well as questions with project schedules on a Gantt chart so clients can follow along in real time.
How do you identify potential risks and manage them throughout the project?
During a full due diligence report, many concerns and potential risks can be identified. This is followed by a pre-application meeting with the authority having jurisdiction to determine permitting needs and identify potential risks.
