ABOUT STORMFLOOD
StormFlood was founded by Martin (Chartered Engineer and RPEQ) in 2020 after wanting to provide direct professional and experienced engineer-to-client services (A lost art in todays world). His diverse background across civil engineering, construction and most importantly his specialisation in flood and stormwater management, allows clients to discuss project needs with a professional that truly understands your project constraints and can provide tailored advice to achieve an efficient outcome.
