Alvord & Richardson Const Construction
Founded in 1965 by Reg Alvord, Alvord & Richardson Construction has served the Bellingham, Washington area for decades as a family-owned contractor. Today, the business is led by Jeff Alvord, who began his construction career as a laborer in the 1970s, advancing to foreman, Project Manager, and Salesman. Jeff runs the company alongside his son-in-law, Dane Thorpe, who also manages projects and sales. The company’s office operations are handled by Melisa Draper, who joined in 2001 and oversees plan drafting, permit applications, and bookkeeping. Alvord & Richardson Construction’s foremen have all been with the company for over 14 years, with some bringing more than four decades of experience. The firm’s longevity and experienced personnel reflect its deep roots in the Bellingham construction industry.
