Why Choose Givler Engineering?

Experience & Expertise

Our unique expertise comes from decades of experience developing creative and innovative solutions for a wide range of complex civil engineering challenges. It is not uncommon that when a client brings a problem to us, we can confidently state, “Been there, solved that.”

Integrity-Driven Approach

We approach every project with integrity, ensuring our work and designs reflect our high standards. As a smaller firm, every client is important to us. We bring focused perspectives to our projects and willingly rise to challenges other civil engineers avoid.

Holistic Problem-Solving

We understand that engineering is an integrated process that begins with the people and communities we serve. Givler focuses on thorough plan design and long-term community needs rather than quick-fix solutions that could cause more problems down the line.

We Help Clients Navigate Technical, Financial, and Regulatory Challenges

We serve our clients by translating technical jargon into everyday language. When funding is available, we assist in securing financial support for more costly projects. We alleviate the burden of bureaucratic paperwork and regulatory requirements and guide our clients in achieving and maintaining compliance with government agencies and avoiding penalties.

Our Civil Engineering Services

At Givler, we know that every civil engineering and environmental project is unique. Instead of forcing projects into one-size-fits-all solutions, we find solutions that truly fit.

Whether you need professional consulting for site development, utilities, municipal public works, dams, or water resources, we are prepared to help you find the right solution to your cost, scheduling, and performance goals.

We also provide expert witness services, analyze engineering and construction elements of legal disputes, and provide clear explanations to attorneys and juries based on facts, engineering principles, and industry standards.

Municipal Engineering

We design street, drainage, and utility projects and provide administrative and observation services during construction. We develop coordination programs for utility projects within the public rights-of-way and stormwater management programs to reduce stormwater pollution.
