McDowell & Associates is a Professional Engineering and Consulting company offering Geotechnical, Environmental, and Hydrogeological Services in addition to Construction Materials Testing and Inspection Services from offices in Ferndale and Midland, Michigan. Since being founded in 1978, our mission has been to provide our clients with practical solutions to real problems. This approach requires clearly defining site characteristics and history, coupled with a thorough understanding of the client's objectives. The result is cost-effective solutions that do not compromise quality. The revenue that is expended on obtaining a clearer understanding of site conditions pertaining to environmental, hydrogeological and geotechnical characteristics, or for construction materials testing can be considered as an investment. These expenditures will often be recovered during construction, or over the life of the project by reducing unexpected conditions. McDowell & Associates provides a full range of services in Michigan, northern Ohio, and the midwest with 50 employees located in Ferndale and Midland, Michigan. Our staff of licensed professionals and degreed engineers has project experience that extends over a large geographical area. |
