When You Need MEP Engineering

If the Building Department Asked for MEP Drawings, You're in the Right Place.

Most projects don't set out to need an MEP engineer — they discover it at permitting, when a reviewer asks for drawings nobody has. The sooner that's handled, the less it costs you in schedule.

  • A tenant fit-out for retail, restaurant, or office space
  • A change of use or change of occupancy
  • Adding or reconfiguring residential units
  • A renovation that touches heating, power, or plumbing
  • An existing building with no usable documentation
  • A permit application stalled on incomplete drawings

What You Get

One Coordinated Package — Not Three Separate Problems

Scope is confirmed in writing before any work begins, so you always know exactly what you're paying for.

Coordinated Design

Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing developed together and reconciled against the architectural and structural drawings — so the disciplines don't collide in the field, where fixing them is most expensive.

Permit-Ready Drawings

Documents prepared for submission to your building department, presented the way reviewers expect to see them, and stamped by a licensed professional where your project requires it.

Review & Response Support

When comments come back, we respond and revise. We stay with the project through the review process instead of handing you a PDF and disappearing.

A Scope You Can Rely On

We review your project before we quote it. Your written proposal states what's included and what isn't — no surprises mid-project, and no commitments we can't keep.

Our Process

From Scope to Permit, in Four Steps

1

Send Us Your Project

Drawings, photos, a lease plan, or just a description — whatever you have. The more we can see, the more precise the proposal.

2

Scope Review & Proposal

We review what your project actually requires and send a written proposal — typically within 1 business day — stating the scope, fee, and schedule.

3

Coordinated Design

We develop the MEP design and coordinate it against the rest of the drawing set, so the package holds together as one submission.

4

Permit Support

You get drawings ready for submission, and we respond to reviewer comments through the approval process.

How we scope and quote your project

We review every project before we quote it. Your written proposal states exactly which disciplines, drawings, and deliverables are included, along with the fee and schedule, confirmed before any work begins. Because every building and every jurisdiction is different, we don't give binding technical answers off the cuff — we'd rather look at your project properly and put the specifics in writing than guess on a phone call and be wrong. Design and engineering services do not include construction, installation, or field supervision, and permit approval is ultimately granted by the authority having jurisdiction.

Who We Work With

Built Around How Massachusetts Projects Actually Get Done

General Contractors & Builders

Be the GC who solves it instead of the one delivering bad news. Send us the scope and get a proposal fast enough to keep your client's schedule intact.

Commercial, Retail & Office

Fit-outs, restaurant build-outs, and change-of-use projects where the lease clock is already running and permitting is the critical path.

Multifamily & Residential Developers

Apartment and condo projects, unit reconfigurations, and ADU work — with the structural and MEP engineering handled by the same firm.

Property & Facility Managers

Existing buildings needing system upgrades, documentation, or compliance work — including buildings with no reliable drawings on file.

Why Clients Consolidate With Us

One Engineering Partner. One Point of Contact.

Chasing separate consultants for structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing — and refereeing them when the drawings conflict — costs you weeks you didn't budget. We handle the engineering as one coordinated package, with one person accountable for the whole set.

Contractors and developers: brief us once — we'll come back with a written proposal, typically within 1 business day.

"As a remodeling contractor, having a structural engineer I can actually count on makes all the difference, and that's exactly what we've had with Marcelo and George at Lebra Engineering & Design. We've worked with them for over three years and they're our go-to on every project that needs structural support. They're responsive, efficient, and — most importantly — genuinely available when we need them. Remodels never go exactly to plan, and more than once we've hit a surprise after demo that meant rethinking the structural approach. Every time, Marcelo and George have jumped in quickly to help us modify the plan and keep the job moving. That kind of reliability is hard to find. Highly recommend them to any contractor or homeowner who needs structural engineering done right."

"We hired Marcelo Martins Ferreira and his team for a major construction project, and they were outstanding. They understood our vision and provided expert design and engineering solutions. The project was completed ahead of schedule, and the quality was exceptional. Will definitely use them again!"

"Efficient and Effective Load-Bearing Wall Removal I recently hired Lebra Engineering to design a steel beam for a load-bearing wall removal project with a 26' - 6" span. I was thoroughly impressed with their service from start to finish. They prepared the necessary drawings and calculation reports for my building permit application with remarkable efficiency. Within a few short days, I had all the documentation I needed. Their work was professional, accurate, and clearly demonstrated their expertise in structural engineering. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lebra Engineering to anyone needing structural design services. Their combination of speed, quality, and expertise made the entire process smooth and stress-free."

MEP Engineering FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you cover mechanical, electrical, and plumbing together?
Yes. We deliver them as one coordinated package under a single point of contact, so the disciplines are reconciled before the drawings reach your building department. The exact scope for your project is confirmed in your written proposal.
Do you install the systems?
No. We provide engineering and design services only — installation is performed by licensed contractors. We're glad to coordinate with whichever contractor you select.
What does MEP engineering cost?
Scope varies too much by building type, size, and condition for a published price to mean anything. Send us your project and we'll review it and provide a written proposal — typically within 1 business day.
How long does it take?
Most projects run about 2–3 weeks once the scope is confirmed. Your schedule is stated in the proposal, so you know the timeline before work begins.
Can you work on an existing building with no drawings?
Often, yes — we review what you have and confirm what's workable before quoting. Where accurate existing conditions matter, 3D laser scanning is available as a separate service, quoted separately.
Will you coordinate with our architect, contractor, or structural engineer?
Yes. Coordinating the MEP design against the architectural and structural drawings is a core part of the work — and it's the main reason projects avoid expensive conflicts during construction.
Can you handle fire alarm and fire protection too?
Yes. Fire alarm and fire protection design can be delivered alongside the MEP and structural work as one coordinated permit set — one brief, one team, one package back.
Can you tell me what my project will require?
Not reliably over the phone — and we'd rather not guess. What a project requires depends on the building, its use, its existing systems, and the local jurisdiction. Send us the details and we'll review them properly, then put the specifics in writing — typically within 1 business day. You'll get a real answer instead of a maybe.
