Introducing IN Engineering and Surveying

Andrew Melchers and Brent Collett are proud to announce the formation of IN Engineering and Surveying in Brockville, Ontario. IN Engineering and Surveying will provide Surveying, Building Design and Engineering services to commercial, residential and community projects across Eastern Ontario, ensuring intelligent, intuitive and inspired solutions to any problem.

Andrew’s experience as an innovative engineer is well-known in our region. IN Engineering is honoured to support community projects including the 5 Mile Lighthouse rebuild, and Brockville’s Rotary Park Pavilion. As head of IN Engineering, Andrew is driven by a passion for designing with wood products such as timber, engineered wood products and standard lumber.

Andrew is a fully qualified and experienced engineer; he holds UE, M.Eng and P.Eng designations, and is Brockville’s 2018 Young Professional of the Year. As leader of IN Engineering and Surveying, Andrew is proud that the new organisation will maintain its head office in Downtown Brockville.

Brent Collett has over 30 years of experience as an Ontario Land Surveyor, and has owned Collett Surveying since 1996. Collett Surveying Ltd. is one of the oldest land survey firms in eastern Ontario, founded in 1881 by Willis Chipman. A Professional Engineer and Ontario Land Surveyor himself, Chipman was responsible for designing some of the first sewer systems in Canada. In combining services with IN Engineering, Collett Surveying is truly honouring its roots as a full service Engineering and Surveying firm.

The staff and management of Collett Surveying are proud of their company’s long history, and proud to now continue that legacy with IN Engineering and Surveying. Moving forward, Brent and his entire team will continue to provide expert surveying services defined by personal and operational excellence. Alongside Andrew, Brent will also play an active role in managing the new company.

From the first meeting through to the final conclusion of the project, we take pride in building professional relationships that last. We also believe professional engineering and surveying doesn’t have to be expensive. By utilizing modern software and efficient work flows, we produce efficient designs in half the time.

When you choose IN Engineering and Surveying for your project, you are choosing to support local community projects through social enterprise. We partner with local non profits like Rotary International and Habitat for Humanity to give back to our community. We invite you to tell us about your project – we are always looking for opportunities to make our community a better place.
