About ACAR Engineering
ACAR Engineering is a Houston-based civil engineering consulting firm led by a Texas-licensed Professional Engineer. We specialize in residential and light commercial civil engineering, with deep experience in the regulatory landscape of the greater Houston metropolitan area.
We understand how Houston works — Harris County drainage requirements and the unique challenges of developing in a flat, flood-prone region. When you work with ACAR Engineering, you get direct access to a licensed PE, not a junior designer.
Our clients range from custom homebuilders and residential developers to small municipalities seeking third-party plan review. We pride ourselves on clear communication, fast turnaround, and technically sound deliverables that hold up through the permitting process.
