History

Serving municipal clients since 1982.
Underwood Engineers, Inc. is a full-service civil and environmental engineering firm. Keith Pratt, P.E. is President, Steve Clifton, P.E. is Senior Vice President and David Mercier, P.E. is Vice President.

Serving New England Communities
As a dedicated and highly professional organization, we have maintained long-term relationships with numerous New England municipalities. From our offices in Portsmouth and Concord, New Hampshire, we serve clients throughout New Hampshire, Maine, northern Massachusetts, and Vermont. Nearly 100% of our workload is for area communities and institutions. Many of our employees are members of municipal boards in their home communities. Our experience and community service provides us with excellent hands-on understanding of the concerns of area communities.

Underwood is dedicated to providing a high-quality professional and dedicated staff while maintaining our focus on service to our clients. To do that, Underwood maintains itself as an energetic, motivated and technically capable firm.

Bigger than you might think
We are a full service engineering firm. Since our inception, we have had longstanding relationships with partners in other engineering disciplines including geotechnical surveying, structural, electrical and mechanical.

We have found partnering with other engineers to be a significant benefit to our clients because they are specialists in their field. It reduces overall costs by reducing overhead, but more importantly, we can choose partners based on their experience, expertise and how it will benefit a particular civil or environmental engineering project.

Our partners are located across the Northeast and are readily available to local officials and contractors. We are well versed in collaborating efforts with them.

Recognition for Yankee Ingenuity
The engineers at Underwood are recognized as professional, innovative problem solvers. With inherent Yankee ingenuity, we have consistently achieved long-term, affordable solutions for the complex problems municipalities face. Proven expertise in obtaining funding, State & Federal grant procedures, negotiation, design solutions, project delivery, value engineering, budgets and cost sharing has resulted in a reputation for excellence and service.

Project Delivery Philosophy
A Principal and Owner is involved with every project and sets goals of quality assurance and client satisfaction. As our client, you always have direct access to a Principal.

We are firmly committed to a project management system ensuring those goals. The Project Manager, a registered professional engineer, is assigned for each project and has the overall responsibility for project delivery (i.e. schedule, budget, technical coordination, and communication). The Project Manager remains as your primary contact from project initiation through construction and to start-up.

The Project Engineer is designated as the secondary contact to assure that assistance will always be available when the client requires it. With specified individuals responsible for your project, you will receive timely responses to your questions and needs.

Underwood Engineers’ Mission Statement
Underwood Engineer’s mission is to solve our clients’ civil and environmental engineering challenges with a commitment to outstanding value, exceptional service, and quality results.

Underwood Engineers’ vision is to be the civil and environmental firm of choice in New England; recognized for technical expertise, exceptional client service and collegial teamwork. We take pride in cultivating client relationships based on exceeding expectations and mutual trust.

From simple pumping stations and multi-mile water main extensions to complex water treatment plants, Underwood has the expertise and experience to bring your project to a successful conclusion.

The financial cost of stormwater can be high. These costs include property damage from flooding, subsequent insurance costs, lowering of flood-prone property values, damage to infrastructure, soil erosion, stream degradation and loss of natural resources.
