Burleigh Construction Company, Inc., founded in 1977 and located in Concord, Virginia, is a leading commercial construction firm focused on heavy highway and bridge construction. From its early days of residential remodeling in Central Virginia, the company evolved its specialization in 1980 to cater primarily to governmental and commercial entities in need of road infrastructure services. With a robust portfolio, Burleigh contracts with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) and local municipalities, providing comprehensive services that include highway and bridge construction, repair, maintenance, grading, and utility work.
Over the past four decades, Burleigh Construction has built a reputation for quality and reliability, primarily serving Virginia and surrounding areas such as Lynchburg, Danville, and Roanoke. A notable element of the company's operations is its commitment to employee ownership, established through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) initiated in 2007. By 2023, the ESOP had fully acquired Burleigh Construction, fostering a culture where employees are incentivized to invest in the company's success. This model enables long-term employees to earn shares, aligning their interests with performance and profitability. Burleigh Construction is dedicated to ensuring that every project enhances community infrastructure while providing its staff with a stake in the company's future.
