About
26 Years of Solving the Problems Others Walk Away From
Perales Engineering is a Texas civil engineering and land development firm built on project recovery, complex entitlements, and infrastructure delivery across Central Texas and beyond.
The Firm
Perales Engineering LLC was founded by Jerry Perales, P.E., after a career defined by one recurring challenge: projects that had stalled, approvals that had expired, and clients who needed someone to find the real obstacle and remove it.
Over 26 years, Jerry has worked across water resources, drainage, infrastructure, commercial development, and entitlements — leading teams at Jacobs Engineering and Bowman Consulting before establishing his own practice.
Today, Perales Engineering serves developers, contractors, and public clients across Texas, bringing the same diagnostic approach to every engagement: understand the constraint, build the solution, and deliver.
