Construction Services

Horizons Engineering provides a complete range of engineering services associated with the construction phase of any project. Their services often begin with construction bidding assistance and follow through to the end of the guarantee period. Horizons Engineering’s construction administration and inspection services reduce technical, scheduling, and financial risks to the owner and contribute to the overall success of the project.

The professionals at Horizons take a hands-on approach to construction services from start to finish, from providing assistance in securing construction bids, bid openings, tabulation and analysis of bids and recommendations regarding the award of contract, to compiling daily records and progress reports and final inspection and preparation of an Operation and Maintenance Manual.
