Since 1977, Holland Engineering has been providing professional surveying and engineering solutions specifically tailored to our clients’ needs. Since inception, our firm has provided high-quality consulting services at a competitive cost.
Our projects have ranged from residential and commercial developments to fire remediation consulting and our staff is uniquely qualified to address the broad spectrum of your infrastructure consulting needs. Our experience has also given us the opportunity to understand and balance the sometimes-competing objectives of property owners, private industry and local governments to produce projects that are both cost-effective and have long-term appeal.
Private & Commercial Development
From planning and design through construction, our professionals are ready to assist you in all your project development needs. We have worked on a variety of projects, including subdivisions, apartment complexes, businesses and schools.
Residential Services
All construction jobs require permits in order to be legal. Our design professionals have many years of experience identifying and obtaining the necessary permits from a wide range of agencies, including private entities, local authorities, and county, state, federal, and tribal governments.
Permit Examples
- Elevation Certificate (EC)
- Critical dune and high risk erosion area (HREA) permits
- MDEQ Floodplain and Wetland permits
- On-site water / wastewater permits (well and septic)
- Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control (SESC) permits
- Municipal permits and variance applications
A quality retaining wall system is a significant investment and should provide long-term benefits to your home or business. Our team is highly experienced in the design and permitting of most major wall systems and has the expertise needed to insure the soundness and longevity of your system.
Although integral to every project, stormwater drainage and runoff management are often overlooked—until they fail. When water does not flow away from a structure quickly enough, flooding can occur. When water flows too quickly or in undesirable locations and erosion and other property damage can occur. Our design professionals are experts in all types of drainage design and stormwater management and can provide robust and cost-effective solutions.
Commercial Services
Our professionals are ready to assist you in all your project development needs, from planning through construction.
Sometimes the most difficult part of a project is getting started.

Using our experience and resources, we will develop a plan that takes into account the unique characteristics of your site and the surrounding community and enables you to achieve those goals.
