Medlock & Associates Engineering

What Medlock & Associates Engineering does

Medlock & Associates Engineering, PA is a privately held professional corporation headquartered at 53 Asheland Avenue, Suite 101, Asheville, North Carolina. The firm delivers structural engineering design and project management services for residential, commercial, and industrial clients across the Carolinas, Tennessee, and Florida. Its portfolio spans floor, wall, and roof framing; foundation design and repair; seismic and wind analysis; retaining wall design; deck evaluations; and code review for existing structures, using reinforced concrete, structural steel, light gage steel, heavy timber, and alternative materials including Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) and Insulated Concrete Form (ICF). The firm also operates a forensic engineering practice serving insurance companies and municipalities on retaining wall failures and foundation damage, and a dams and bridges infrastructure practice covering earthen dams, dam remediation, and bridge design.

The business model is fee-for-service professional engineering: projects are quoted/custom-priced and delivered through direct engagement with principals, who are registered Professional Engineers in North Carolina and South Carolina and personally drive design and project management. A technical staff executes production documentation, value engineering, construction observation, and permitting support. Client industries include architects, contractors, developers, corporate and industrial entities, commercial companies, public agencies, insurance carriers, and municipalities. Marketing is minimal: a company website (medlockengr.com), a Facebook page, and Square-based payment processing for residential deposits.

The firm holds Professional Liability Insurance and is a member of ASCE, ACI, SEI, and AISC. Approximately 1–10 employees are reported, no app, API, or AI capabilities are disclosed, and no external funding rounds or M&A activity have been recorded. Operations appear continuous and active, with no parent company, subsidiaries, or known regulatory actions.
