LCM Engineering, PLLC. - Florida's Trusted Structrual Engineering Experts Since 1993

Founded by Lewis C. Midlam in 1993, LCM Engineering, PLLC. has proudly served Southwest Florida with high-quality, reliable, and code-compliant structural engineering services for over 30 years. Based in SW Florida and deeply familiar with the region’s environmental challenges, we specialize in both structural engineering for existing buildings and design services for new construction. From Collier County to Charlotte County, Naples and Fort Myers to Cape Coral, Bonita Springs, and beyond, we help property owners, developers, and communities protect and enhance the structural integrity of their buildings.

At LCM Engineering, PLLC., we focus heavily on the unique needs of coastal structures, especially in areas where salt air and moisture contribute to rebar corrosion in concrete. Over time, these conditions can lead to serious issues such as cracking, spalling, and structural failure. Our engineers provide expert evaluations, repair plans, and restoration designs to address these problems before they become safety hazards. In fact, Florida law requires a licensed structural engineer to assess and approve any structural repairs — especially when corrosion or storm damage is involved.

We are a leading provider of milestone inspections in Lee, Charlotte and Collier Counties, including 25-year and 30-year structural inspections required for condominiums and multi-family buildings. We assist condo associations, homeowners associations, and property managers in maintaining compliance with state mandates while ensuring resident safety. Our inspections include thorough condition surveys, photographic documentation, and repair recommendations — all designed to help you make informed decisions about your building’s structural health.

LCM Engineering, PLLC., offers comprehensive structural design services for new buildings. Whether you're developing a custom home, a retail center, or an industrial facility in Southwest Florida, we design efficient, code-compliant structures using concrete, steel, wood, or masonry. We work closely with architects, contractors, and developers throughout the permitting and construction process, ensuring every detail meets both Florida Building Code standards and your project goals.

We are well known for our forensic engineering and expert witness services. We provide detailed evaluations and professional testimony for construction defects, building failures, insurance claims, and litigation cases. Attorneys and insurance professionals across Naples, Fort Myers, and Cape Coral trust us to deliver clear, accurate reports that stand up in court and arbitration.
