I am Greg Batista, owner and founder at G.Batista Engineering & Construction in South Florida. First and foremost, I’m incredibly passionate about educating others and advocating for proactive building maintenance to meet the challenges of our aging structures and evolving regulations.With over three decades of hands-on engineering and construction experience, I have built a reputation as a trusted expert capable of managing projects from design to completion, whether it's single-family homes or high-rise condominiums.Throughout my rewarding career, I have had the extraordinary privilege of being a first responder in high-profile disaster responses, including the 2005 Haiti earthquake and involved in the Surfside building collapse. I am enthusiastic about building maintenance and believe proactive measures can prevent future calamities.I’ve also authored many insightful books and guides, including titles like "Negligence! Averting Disaster at Your Building: Lessons Learned from the Champlain Towers Collapse", and helpful guides such as "Hiring an Engineer", "Concrete Repair Basics", "Hiring an Owner's Representative", "40-Year Recertifications and Milestone Inspections", and "Condo Chaos: Managing the looming Condominium Crisis in Florida".I’ve been honored to receive several prestigious awards, such as the US Congress Business Excellence and Community Award, Engineer of the Year by CIAPR, and Professional of the Year by the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. My work has been featured in top publications like the Miami Herald, Washington Examiner, Forbes Magazine, and USA Today, and I’ve made appearances on CNN, MSNBC, Good Morning America, Telemundo, and many more media outlets.At G. Batista Engineering & Construction, we offer a comprehensive range of services, including building inspections, structural and MEP engineering, and construction.
