Galloway’s regional office in Fresno is intentionally located in the heart of California, where our town is known as the best little city in the USA. We’re also perfectly located in the Central Valley, creating easy access to support projects anywhere in the state, which we do often.
It’s a choice to be here because we love the culture of our community. A good deal of our work is with locals who have been here for generations, and we love coming alongside them.
We also have a reputation for rolling up our sleeves and getting our hands dirty helping our neighbors. Doing right by our community and giving back is second nature to us, and pitching in to make California a better place to live and work is our natural inclination.
Our office was built on the foundations of our talented staff who excel at civil engineering and site development. We’re born, raised and educated here. We relish our ability to serve the state with all the services Galloway has to offer — with our national team close at hand.
We’re versatile and bring something fresh and new to every project. We’re known for exceptional communication and performance, with a focus on high-quality deliverables. And, we always bring honesty to the table.
So, if you’re looking for boots on the ground here in the Central Valley, or the wisdom needed to design and build in California, we’ve got you covered.
“We believe that thoughtful design and high quality deliverables are a baseline expectation. Galloway’s passion for making our beloved Central Valley community a better place, with focus on meaningful relationships and stellar communication, allows us to create a unique and positive experience for our clients and team.”
