The Robert B. Balter Company provides professional geotechnical and geo-environmental engineering consulting and associated services to a broad spectrum of public and private sector clients.

The Robert B. Balter Company has developed a solid reputation as one of the most experienced geotechnical engineering firms in the mid-Atlantic region. Throughout our history, we have provided geotechnical and geo-environmental engineering, construction management, civil and material inspection, laboratory testing, and drilling services on more than 16,750 projects. In addition, as a prime consultant, The Robert B. Balter Company has coordinated and managed surveying, civil and structural engineering, specialty consultants, and program management for projects of significant magnitude.

After more than a half-century of engineering services, The Robert B. Balter Company has developed an exceptional project portfolio. Our work includes thousands of successful projects throughout the Mid-Atlantic, as well as elsewhere in the Eastern U.S. and the Caribbean. Our experience is unusually diverse, and includes projects of every size and type. They range from small projects such as county parks and fire stations, to huge projects such as complete geotechnical and geo-environmental services for the Baltimore Subway. As a result, there are very few situations that we haven't already engineered in some way.
