Our Story

The story starts in the 1980s and 90s, when founder Joseph Simhon was introduced to construction at an early age by his father, developer and contractor David Simhon. Growing up on job sites in Canada and later in Florida, Joseph learned the craft from the ground up – from basic drafting to hands-on construction work.

By 2006, Joseph had started NOHMIS, offering drafting and design services to contractors, designers, and property owners. At the same time, he helped manage his father’s remodeling projects, gaining a deep understanding of both design and construction.

After earning a degree in Business Management from UCF, Joseph pursued his Civil Engineering degree at FAU, sharpening his technical skills while growing the business. He obtained his Certified General Contractor’s license in 2011, and by 2018, achieved his Professional Engineering (PE) license.

Over the years, NOHMIS completed more than 250 residential and commercial projects, ranging from small renovations to large-scale developments. Joseph’s unique blend of field experience, technical expertise, and business acumen shaped NOHMIS into a company that speaks the language of both designers and builders.

In 2019, with David retiring from day-to-day construction, Joseph made the strategic decision to focus NOHMIS on engineering, design, and construction management services. Clients who had trusted the company for years continued to rely on NOHMIS for their most important projects — now with an even greater emphasis on precision, collaboration, and innovation.

Today, NOHMIS is a forward-thinking design and engineering firm built on decades of hands-on experience. We are proud to serve as a bridge between vision and reality, delivering solutions that are not only beautiful and functional, but also buildable, safe, and efficient.
