For over seventy-five years, Gilbert Engineering Company has been building throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. Working to maintain high standards of quality and integrity, we have partnered with our customers to design and build construction projects; such as, industrial site work and buildings, related infrastructure, water quality improvement projects, water and wastewater treatment plants, and water and sewer line installation. The company has design and engineering capability with a Registered Engineer on staff. John N. Gilbert, Sr. Founder of Gilbert Engineering   When Gilbert Engineering Company was organized in 1926, the company began operations with one used pickup truck, two wheelbarrows, and a few shovels and picks. The founder of the company, John N. Gilbert, Sr., also organized a rock quarry, a concrete company and even a restaurant following his philosophy of "if you see a need, you meet it". The Gilbert family has since divested itself of everything but the construction company which was the original cornerstone of Mr. Gilbert's endeavors; however, the company is still located upon the original site (of operations) in downtown Statesville, NC. Now over seventy-five years later, we are a leader in our area of industry, staying current with developing engineering and construction technology. Our core values have withstood the test of time and have not changed. Honesty, integrity, hard work, and attention to detail?hile making the most of up-to-date equipment, technology, and techniques…are the keys to our long success. Today, the company is still owned and managed by the second and third generation of civil engineers who are designing and building for the future. Gilbert Engineering Company is not large by ENR 500 or Fortune 500 standards, and the management prefers it that way. We are selective in personnel, keeping quality at the forefront. We enjoy close communication with our clients and we have an impressive ratio of corporate size to project size. Our experience encompasses a wide variety of diverse projects. The common threads through all of our projects are 1) the quality of the final product; 2) the relationships we've built with our project teams - owners, engineers, subcontractors, vendors, etc.; and 3) the demanding technical aspects of our work. This third point is where Gilbert Engineering Company really adds value - we solve problems. We listen to our customers and go about making their visions reality. Whether the constraints are time, budgetary, or engineering, we have the experience and commitment to make it happen.
