Lamont Engineers

What Lamont Engineers does

Lamont Engineers is a privately held consulting engineering firm founded in 1980 and headquartered in Cobleskill, New York, with additional offices in Saugerties and Gloversville. The firm provides civil, structural, environmental, municipal, and sanitary engineering services to municipalities, planning boards, and private clients across upstate New York. Its service portfolio spans drinking water supply and treatment, wastewater collection and treatment, stormwater management, transportation engineering, buildings and structural engineering, funding procurement assistance, and planning/regulatory review services.

The firm operates as a professional services consultancy, generating revenue through project-based fees for engineering studies, design, bidding, and construction-phase services. It differentiates through specialized regulatory expertise — particularly with NYCDEP and Catskill Watershed Corporation requirements — and a P.E.-led staff model. In 2000-2005, the firm spun out LVDV Operations, Inc., an affiliate providing recurring contract operations, laboratory testing, and maintenance for water and wastewater treatment facilities in eastern New York. Customers include the Village of Athens, Town of Oneonta, Village of Cooperstown, Albany County Department of Public Works, Saratoga Water Services, and Cobleskill Regional Hospital. The firm has been recognized as one of Albany's Best Places to Work by the Albany Business Review in both 2023 and 2024.

The business model is relationship-driven, with project acquisition through direct engagement with municipal governments, planning boards, and private clients, supplemented by competitive bidding for public contracts and referrals. No revenue is publicly disclosed, and there is no evidence of external private equity or venture backing. Leadership includes Principal Engineer Henry Lamont, P.E., alongside a roster of professional engineers, project managers, technicians, and administrative staff.
