Jones & Beach Engineers, Inc., founded in 1977 by Bradford H. Jones and David W. Beach, is a prominent civil engineering firm based in New Hampshire. Initially focused on sanitary engineering and municipal sewer systems, the company has significantly evolved, expanding its expertise into civil engineering for private subdivisions and site plans. The transition began in the late 1980s when the founders' sons joined the family business, leading to a shift toward residential subdivisions and commercial site plans, which rapidly became its primary focus.
Throughout its history, Jones & Beach has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to client service, maintaining a responsive approach that has fostered a diverse and loyal clientele. This adaptability was crucial for the firm during the economic challenges of the early 1990s, earning it recognition as a Sustaining Firm by a national engineering organization. In 1997, Randy Jones took over the management after the retirement of Bradford Jones, steering the company further into private development while still honoring smaller projects to uphold its family-oriented values.
The firm experienced transformative changes following Randy's passing in 2000, eventually evolving into a collaboration among five employee owners. This new management structure enhanced both service capacity and the range of engineering solutions available. Significant expansions occurred in the survey department, adopting advanced technologies like Global Position Satellite (GPS) navigation and robotic surveying, thus positioning the company at the forefront of technically advanced survey services.
In 2008, Jones & Beach expanded its capabilities through the acquisition of RSL Layout & Design, broadening its geographic reach and bolstering its staffing with skilled professionals. Today, Jones & Beach is recognized as a leader in civil engineering and surveying, particularly in developing sustainable solutions such as Low-Impact Development (LID) techniques for stormwater management that promote environmental conservation. The firm is dedicated to delivering exceptional professional services to a wide array of clients across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors throughout New England, embodying a legacy of innovation and technical excellence.
