Our History

Welford Engineering Associates, Inc. was born out of the vision and dreams of its owner, Lawrence R. Welford, PE. Mr. Welford is a Professional Engineer with licenses in both Civil Engineering and Structural Engineering. Mr. Welford’s 32 years of experience in the industry demonstrates the depth and breadth of his engineering and planning expertise, including the areas of bridge design, transportation structures, buildings, site design and planning, land use (rezoning) permitting, and project management. He has lived and worked in the Fredericksburg, Virginia region for the last 15 years devoted to serving the local community.

Mr. Welford incorporated Welford Engineering Associates, Inc. in June 2000 and began operations in a small office in downtown Fredericksburg. The firm outgrew its space within two years and moved into a larger office within the same office building. Continued growth in both volume of work and the services offered by the firm led Mr. Welford to design and construct a brand new 11,000 square foot state-of-the-art corporate office in Spotsylvania, Virginia.

Mr. Welford and his senior management team continue to grow the firm by constantly striving to deliver the best consulting services in the area as well as adding new services that meet the evolving needs of its clients.
