Engineering growth for Houston and all of Southeast Texas
Civil Engineering
and Land Surveying
For 40 years, Kuo & Associates (KUO), a Houston-based civil engineering and land surveying firm, has been delivering critical infrastructure across Southeast Texas.
Though much has changed in that time, we remain grounded in the values that have shaped our success: technical excellence, responsive client service, and a deep commitment to the communities we serve.
Our holistic design solutions are catered to both the unique design criteria of the project and client preferences. Houston is one of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding metropolitan areas in the country.
KUO was founded to meet the infrastructure challenges of this unique region—its complex soils, stringent regulations, flood risks, and ever-shifting development patterns.
We design with these realities in mind, delivering systems that are not only functional today but built to last in a changing environment.
Our Mission
We’re passionate about quality work with responsiveness, spontaneity, and timeliness. In fact, the City of Houston has named KUO an Outstanding Prime Contractor for our civil design work in water resource management, transportation, site development, and land surveying in the region.
