who we are

Ramones Engineering PLLC is a Texas civil engineering firm focused on site development for commercial, residential, and industrial projects. We handle the full project lifecycle: feasibility, platting, entitlements, civil design, permitting, and construction administration; so developers, landowners, and commercial owners have a single engineer of record from concept through completion.

Every project is led directly by a licensed Professional Engineer, from kickoff through sealed deliverables.

About the Principal

Nicholas M. Ramones, PE is the founder and principal engineer of Ramones Engineering PLLC. Licensed as a Professional Engineer in Texas (PE #117112), Nick has been practicing civil engineering in Texas since 2003.

Nick began his career at Denham-Ramones Engineering & Associates, where he worked for nearly 13 years, from field intern through Project Engineer, focused on high-volume residential land development for Texas production homebuilders. That work included platting, subdivision design, drainage, detention, and FEMA CLOMR/LOMR submittals across the San Antonio region.

He then joined Bain Medina Bain, Inc., where he spent over three years leading large-scale public infrastructure projects including the SAWS Vista Ridge regional water pipeline, City of San Antonio bond projects, Alamo Colleges campus expansions, and San Antonio International Airport runway rehabilitation.

Nick founded Ramones Engineering PLLC in 2020 to combine these two foundations: production-scale residential experience and public infrastructure depth, into a site development practice that serves commercial developers, architects, homebuilders, and landowners across Texas. The firm also maintains a specialty infrastructure practice supporting pump contractors and trenchless rehabilitation contractors on municipal sewer projects.

Nick holds a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from the University of Texas at San Antonio. He has worked extensively with SAWS, TxDOT, the City of San Antonio, Bexar County, and municipalities across Texas.

Why Ramones Engineering

Direct access to the engineer. You work with the PE who designs and seals your plans, not a project manager relaying messages. That means faster decisions, fewer miscommunications, and accountability on every deliverable.

Built for Texas regulatory environments. Years of permitting experience with SAWS, TxDOT, COSA, Bexar County, and municipalities across Texas means fewer surprises during review and faster paths to approval.

Deep technical foundation. Over 20 years of civil engineering practice, including thousands of residential lots platted for Texas production homebuilders and large-scale public infrastructure projects such as the SAWS Vista Ridge pipeline.

Focused project load. We take on a manageable number of projects at a time to maintain hands-on involvement and deliver work that meets our standards, not just the minimum requirements.
