We're excited to announce a significant expansion of our civil engineering capabilities in Snohomish County. In January 2024, AXE proudly acquired MAC Engineering, a well-established local firm with a strong reputation for permit assistance in residential development and drainage plans. This strategic acquisition allows us to provide a more comprehensive suite of civil and structural engineering services to clients across Whatcom, Skagit, and — most importantly — Snohomish Counties.
At AXE, we understand the unique challenges of development in Snohomish County, particularly regarding stormwater management and land disturbance activities. With the combined expertise of AXE and MAC Engineering, we are now your premier resource for:
- Expert drainage plan design — effective and compliant drainage plans tailored to the specific needs of your project, ensuring proper stormwater management and minimizing environmental impact.
- Efficient LDA (Land Disturbance Activity) permitting — navigating the complex LDA permitting process can be daunting. Our team has extensive experience with Snohomish County regulations, streamlining the process and ensuring project compliance.
- Comprehensive civil engineering services — from site development and grading to utility design and erosion control, a full range of services to support your project from concept to completion.
