3711 Saunders Ave Richmond, VA 23227-4355
After decades serving the Richmond area from nearby Terracon locations, we were thrilled to establish a local office in 2025. Our team brings deep technical expertise in geotechnical engineering, environmental consulting, construction materials testing, and facilities services. We’ve contributed to thousands of projects in the area, serving power generation and transmission, healthcare, industrial and logistics, commercial, digital infrastructure, transportation and infrastructure, and federal clients.
At Terracon, we’re committed to delivering high-quality, responsive services tailored to your project’s needs. Our Richmond team offers a full suite of services, from environmental site assessments and remediation to geotechnical investigations and materials testing, with a focus on collaboration, technical excellence, and fast turnaround times.
We understand the unique geologic challenges of the Richmond region, located along the fall line between Piedmont and Coastal Plain. Our geotechnical engineers, geologists, and scientists are experienced in navigating this dynamic environment, making sure your project is scoped and executed with precision. Plus, our interactive Compass platform gives clients real-time access to testing data, site maps, and reports, making it easier to manage multiple projects and stay informed every step of the way.Â
We’re proud to support projects that are shaping the region, including the I-64 Gap expansion, Port of Virginia developments, and major commercial projects like Buc-ee’s and an AutoZone distribution center.
We’re more than just engineers, geologists, and scientists — we’re a team that values connection, community, and fun. From interactive golf outings during Safety Week to family nights at Flying Squirrels games, we make time to celebrate together. We also value giving back, and in 2025 raised over $15,000 for the Richmond chapter of the ACE Mentor Program of America through our annual golf invitational.
As part of Terracon’s nationwide network, we bring the strength of a large firm with the heart of a local team. Our Richmond office is growing, and we’re excited to continue building relationships, expanding our services, and helping our clients succeed.
We’re the people you want by your side. Let’s explore what’s next together.
