Engineering. Surveying. Planning.
One Team. Built Around Your Project.
From initial feasibility and surveying through design, permitting, and construction, our team brings the right expertise together at every stage. We anticipate challenges, navigate complexities, and keep projects moving forward with responsive service and solutions that work.
More Capabilities. Better Coordination.
Great projects don’t happen in silos.
Surveying affects planning. Planning affects drainage and infrastructure. Infrastructure affects design. And decisions made during design ultimately affect what happens during construction.
Blackline brings these disciplines together.
With the addition of S&V Surveying, Blackline now offers land surveying alongside its engineering, planning, and construction services, creating an even more integrated approach to project delivery.

From S&V Surveying to Blackline Engineering
More Than 30 Years of Houston-Area Surveying Experience. Now Part of a Broader Team.
Blackline Engineering has welcomed S&V Surveying into the Blackline organization, bringing together S&V’s established surveying experience with Blackline’s civil engineering, land development, infrastructure, GIS, planning, and construction capabilities.
For existing S&V clients, this means the surveying support and relationships you know are now backed by the broader capabilities of Blackline Engineering.
For Blackline clients, it means better integration between the people gathering critical field information and the professionals using that information to plan, design, permit, and construct your project.
One Team. From the Ground Up.
Every project is different, but the need for coordination is the same.
Blackline’s multidisciplinary approach allows our teams to see the bigger picture. Surveyors understand what the engineers need. Engineers understand what contractors will encounter. Planners understand the approval process. And our construction professionals understand what it takes to turn plans into completed infrastructure.
That collaboration helps us identify challenges earlier, communicate more effectively, and develop solutions based on how projects actually get built.

Local Knowledge Matters
Houston Projects Require Houston Experience.
Development and infrastructure projects in Greater Houston come with unique challenges—from drainage and floodplain considerations to utility coordination, jurisdictional requirements, permitting, right-of-way, and rapidly growing communities.
Blackline combines technical expertise with practical knowledge of the agencies, regulations, infrastructure, and development environment that shape projects throughout the region.
Our objective isn’t simply to produce plans.
It’s to help clients move projects forward.
