Mechanical Engineering

With extensive nation-wide project experience, Benchmark Group’s Mechanical team has the expertise and code knowledge to create sound, effective, and cost-efficient mechanical systems for your project. We can produce a more complete design with fewer changes required in the field during construction. This moves the project along smoothly with fewer delays and reduces the number of costly change orders during the building of the project.

Our team believes in high quality construction documents at a reasonable cost for every Client. This begins with open lines of communication, quick response time by us, and attention to details – all which set our highly skilled team above the competition. Maintaining long-term client partnerships through quality and client satisfaction are the foundation we were built on and continues to be our goal.

“Guss Jahchan, AIA, and his team at Benchmark Group, have handled a crucial and important Value-Engineering exercise for one of our corporate stores in Virginia. They had developed and maintained our present corporate prototype, while they were able to point out areas of savings, without jeopardizing the aesthetics or the quality of our store.  We at Propelled Brands, have found the Benchmark team to be highly professional while keeping our interest at the forefront of their work.  Our plan is to continue to work with Benchmark Group for our architectural and engineering (A&E) needs and recommend them to others that need full professional A&E assistance.

“Our Experience with the team at Benchmark was fantastic! They did a great job of interpreting what we wanted and suggesting what would be a good fit. The little details in design made a difference. They were responsive to questions, very accommodating to changes, and easy to do business with. We are very happy and would recommend their services.”
