Where Creativity Meets Community.

Civil Engineering and Grading Plans in Culver City, CA

At B+W Engineering, we provide professional civil engineering and grading plan services for residential and mixed-use projects in Culver City, California. Known for its flat lots, walkable neighborhoods, and active development climate, Culver City offers a streamlined environment for construction, but still requires precision and compliance when it comes to grading, drainage, and permitting.

Our team supports homeowners, architects, and developers with efficient, code-compliant plans that keep projects moving from design through approval.

Civil Engineering for Flat Lots and Urban Infill

Unlike the hillside regions of Los Angeles, Culver City presents unique opportunities for fast-track development on relatively level ground. But even with flat sites, grading and drainage plans are essential; especially with increasing density, zero-lot-line designs, and city oversight.

We help clients meet City of Culver City and LA County requirements for erosion control, stormwater mitigation, and sustainable site grading, while maximizing buildable area and design potential.

Smart Grading Plans for Flat-Site Construction

Whether you’re adding an ADU in the backyard or breaking ground on a new home, our civil engineers provide accurate, thoughtfully designed grading plans tailored for Culver City’s flat parcels. We focus on proper pad elevation, drainage direction, driveway grading, and ADA compliance when needed; all while aligning with city engineering review processes.

Our plans are clear, buildable, and crafted to minimize delays during review and construction.

Drainage Plans That Prevent Future Issues

Even on flat ground, proper stormwater drainage is critical. Culver City enforces strict low-impact development (LID) requirements, and we ensure your drainage plan meets those standards from day one.

From backyard ADUs to full lot redevelopments, we design site drainage that manages runoff responsibly, protects adjacent properties, and supports long-term site performance; including permeable materials, bioretention, and curb tie-ins where appropriate.
