About Us
Richard L. Crowder Construction:
A Solid Foundation
Richard L. Crowder Sr. started the company with a 977 Caterpillar loader in 1973. Later, the vice president, Gary Lilley, purchased the corporation from Richard L. Crowder Sr. Since then, the company has gained vast experience in a wide range of services in the construction industry. Under Gary Lilley’s guidance and leadership, the company has taken on larger more complex projects, as the corporation aquired a large fleet of heavy equipment and an extensive network of customers. Today, Richard L. Crowder Construction has grown and expanded to become one of the largest site contractors in the Greater Richmond area.
