I had an amazing experience with this firm as far as the professional handling of my business needs. I would highly recommend them if you had a Landscape Project to complete for a Municipality, City, Township or County.

You could not find a better group to work with than F&V! Their staff members are not only skilled in their field, but they are quality human beings. They are great at helping small communities find ways to fund projects and are easy to work with. I am proud of the many projects I have done with them in multiple communities!

What We Do

Fleis & VandenBrink provides multiple engineering disciplines to keep water systems across Michigan and Indiana safe for everyone who uses them.

Water Treatment System Design

We design treatment systems that address local capacity, reliability, and expansion issues. 

Wastewater Treatment System Upgrades

Aging systems can fall short of compliance and safety standards and put a greater strain on your community’s budget. F&V provides upgrades that extend the life of your system.

Funding Strategy & Grant Support

F&V works with municipalities to make sure funding is in place before a shovel hits the ground. We’ve helped dozens of communities secure state and federal grants.

Our team assists with writing, budgeting, and matching fund documentation, backed by real experience navigating municipal grant cycles.
