REBRANDING AS CM2DB
CM2DB is the result of many years of growth.
High Tech Services – Founded in 1987, the original company was involved in software development, data development as well as hardware systems integration. The market for services included consulting engineers and land surveyors, local and state government agencies, the oil/gas/electric and energy industries, as well as shipping and railway companies. The rights to the software which was developed during these years were sold to a number of entities.
Consulting Engineers – In 2000, the company returned to the roots of the founder as a consulting engineering company. Today, Chalk Mountain LLC is a registered engineering company (PELS Firm No 19516) which provides professional engineering services throughout the State of Texas.
Construction Management – In 2004, an opportunity appeared to plan, engineer and construct a master planned community. Services included land planning, consulting engineering and land development management as well as management of all construction activities including streets, infrastructure and construction of homes. In 2019, the company which was created to address the needs of this project was renamed to Chalk Mountain Builders LLC. Today, Chalk Mountain Builders is a provider of general contracting services for infrastructure related to land development, as well as vertical construction for residential and commercial structures.
Today, CM2DB represents the combined capabilities of Chalk Mountain LLC as well as Chalk Mountain Builders LLC.
