Concord, NH – February 5, 2025 – Wilcox & Barton, a leading civil, environmental, and geotechnical engineering firm in New England, is proud to celebrate its 25th anniversary. Since its founding by Bill Wilcox and Russell Barton in 2000, the firm has grown from a small operation above a garage in Vermont to an industry leader with offices across the region, including new headquarters in Concord, New Hampshire.
With a foundational focus on providing high-quality environmental consulting services, Wilcox & Barton’s reputation for excellence and reliability has earned the firm a loyal client base and a stellar standing in the industry. Over the years, the company has successfully navigated a range of challenges, from large-scale environmental cleanup projects to civil infrastructure initiatives, while maintaining its core values of quality, integrity, and innovation.
“Celebrating our 25th anniversary is a true reflection of the hard work and dedication of our incredible team and the trust we’ve earned from our clients,” said Bill Wilcox, co-founder of Wilcox & Barton. “What began as a small consulting firm with a big vision has grown into a regional leader. We’re proud of how far we’ve come and excited for the future.”
The firm has made significant contributions to New England’s built environment, with projects spanning schools, senior housing, public libraries, and more.

This approach has helped the firm attract top talent, creating a dedicated and loyal team.
“By offering our team the flexibility to work in ways that suit their lives, we’ve created a company culture that values work-life balance as much as professional success,” said Russell Barton, co-founder of Wilcox & Barton. “This model has been key to our growth and has allowed us to maintain a positive, collaborative environment as we expand.”
As Wilcox & Barton looks to the future, the firm is committed to continuing its positive contributions to New England communities while expanding its reach and enhancing its services.
