What our clients say
Testimonials
I wanted to reach out and express my thanks for the work you and your firm did for the Cottonwood Close Strata Corporation. You provided us with the information we needed to get our owners moving forward on a long term maintenance and repair program in a timely manner for a fair price.
As a steel fabricator I have had the pleasure of supplying structural steel for numerous projects designed by Herold Engineering. The quality of work and cooperation that our firm has enjoyed is among the best that I personally have seen in 45 years in the industry.
We have just recently completed two separate projects that were contracted to Herold Engineering. Both Country Grocer and TD Bank were designed on schedule, as set out by our Project Manager. The projects came in on budget and we are very happy with the service that Herold Engineering gave us. We would highly recommend them.
What truly separates Herold Engineering from other engineering firms was the support and responsiveness provided during the project executions. The team at Herold are genuinely concerned and empathetic with the sub-trades they work with and exhibit a sense of urgency when providing engineering solutions that help maintain the overall project schedule.
On behalf of APEGBC, I would like to take this opportunity to recognize your employee Jarrod Koster, P.Eng. for his service to the Vancouver Island Branch… APEGBC sincerely appreciates the service volunteers like Jarrod make to our association and the support from the employers of our member such as Herold Engineering Limited.
I’m happy to report that the pole was erected successfully! There was a bit of a rush to get it over the finish line, but Tony brought in a team of helpers and they got everything completed on time. Your insight and generosity have assisted us tremendously.
Ladysmith Community Services Centre achieved LEED Gold. Your commitment to achieving this recognition is greatly appreciated.
Herold Engineering is our first choice for engineering because we can trust them to do the job right the first time.
I would use Herold Engineering Limited for all project work in the future. They are extremely responsive to questions and concerns from the design team.
