JOWA LLC is a licensed structural engineering firm that focuses on the design of high-end residential homes in Southern New England and New York. With a proven track record of supporting the design, renovation, and construction of hundreds of homes, JOWA has built enduring relationships with architects, contractors, and design professionals—most of its projects are generated through repeat clientele and referrals.

JOWA adheres to a philosophy of providing simple solutions to complex problems, valuing strong client relationships and emphasizing customer service and open communication. The team believes in the importance of continuing education to ensure all engineers remain current with construction practices and techniques, while hands-on experience in construction plays a crucial role in their design process. This approach allows JOWA to tackle projects ranging from minor renovations to the full structural design of large custom homes, particularly in challenging environments such as coastal flood zones.
The expertise of the JOWA team encompasses a wide array of structural engineering projects, including wood-framed and steel-supported construction designs. They maintain strong partnerships with geotechnical and civil engineers to navigate complex design challenges effectively. Founded by Jeremey R. Williamson, who harnessed his extensive experience in structural design and client relationship management, JOWA is committed to collaboration and ensuring a personalized service that results in superior architectural outcomes. Outside of engineering, Jeremey indulges in woodworking and home projects, reinforcing the firm’s commitment to craftsmanship.
