Simes & Rosch Engineering is a full-service mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) consulting engineering firm located in Jacksonville, Florida. We provide comprehensive design and analysis of building systems for both new construction and renovation projects across a wide range of facility types.
Our mission is simple: deliver high-performing, maintainable, and energy-efficient systems that provide long-term value. We believe great engineering goes beyond meeting code — it supports operational reliability, occupant comfort, sustainability, and life cycle cost effectiveness.
With a practical, solutions-driven approach, our team works closely with owners, architects, contractors, and facility managers to ensure each system is thoughtfully designed, coordinated, and optimized for real-world performance.
Our Capabilities:
Mechanical Engineering
HVAC system design and analysis
Central plant and chilled water systems
Energy modeling and load calculations
Building automation and controls coordination
Indoor air quality and ventilation design
Equipment replacement and retrofit design
Commissioning support
Electrical Engineering
Power distribution systems
Lighting design and photometric analysis
Emergency and standby power systems
Generator and UPS systems
Fire alarm system design
Low-voltage systems coordination
Arc flash and short-circuit studies
Plumbing Engineering
Domestic water systems
Sanitary and vent systems
Storm drainage systems
Medical gas systems
Natural gas distribution
Backflow prevention and specialty systems
Our Approach
Maintainability First
We design systems that are practical, accessible, and serviceable — because the true cost of a building is realized long after construction is complete.
Energy Efficiency & Sustainability
Energy-efficient systems are not just environmentally responsible — they reduce operating costs and extend equipment life. We incorporate high-performance strategies tailored to each project’s goals and budget.
Life Cycle Cost Effectiveness
Our designs balance initial construction cost with long-term operation, maintenance, and energy performance to deliver measurable value over the life of the facility.
Collaboration & Responsiveness
We are committed to proactive communication and coordination throughout the design and construction process. Our clients value our responsiveness, technical depth, and attention to detail.
