Engineering FAQs
What does a civil engineering firm do?
A civil engineering firm like Benchmark Civil Engineering Services designs, plans, and oversees the development of infrastructure and land projects. This can include anything from residential subdivisions and commercial site development to stormwater management systems and roadway improvements. We help clients bring their projects from concept to reality while ensuring they comply with local, state, and federal regulations.
Do I need a civil engineer for my land development project?
Yes—if you’re planning any kind of land development project, involving a civil engineer early is critical. We handle everything from grading and drainage design to zoning approvals and permitting. Benchmark can help streamline the process by creating detailed, compliant site plans and acting as your liaison with municipalities and regulatory bodies, saving you time, money, and frustration.
What is the difference between land surveying and civil engineering?
Land surveying involves measuring and mapping land boundaries and topography, which is often the first step in a development project. Civil engineering builds upon those measurements to design structures, roads, drainage systems, and other infrastructure. At Benchmark, we offer both services under one roof, providing clients with seamless project coordination from start to finish.
