About Us

Employee Owned. Service Driven.

We believe in offering the services our clients need throughout the life of their land development projects by providing civil / site engineering, land surveying, geotechnical engineering, environmental due diligence services, Construction Materials Testing (CMT), and inspection during the construction phases of a project.


TERRA is unique among engineering firms in that we provide “turn-key” services in-house. These services can provide significant cost savings to our clients due to cross-over of effort in our various departments: The bigger the project the larger the cost savings. Being an employee-owned company creates an attitude of where everyone at TERRA has an investment in doing the best job possible for our clients and ensuring we exceed the expectations of our clients.  All our team members have “skin in the game” and understand how important repeat business is for TERRA long term.
