Richco Contracting Ltd. has been serving the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley since 1989 - built from the ground up by Rich Van Geel with a simple approach: do the work properly, treat people right, and stand behind everything you build.
Nearly four decades later, that approach hasn't changed. And neither has the family running it.
What started as an owner-operator venture has grown into one of the region's most trusted civil construction companies - with family still being part of the team that keeps it running. Backed by a crew that feels the same way, many of whom have been with Richco for over a decade, we've built a company where the culture is as strong as the work we put in the ground.
We deliver complex municipal infrastructure projects for cities, regional districts, engineers, and private owners across Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley - and we take every one of them personally. Because when your name is on the work, it means something.
At the core of Richco is our team.
Many of our crew members have been with us for over ten years. They're not just employees; they're the reason we can stand behind everything we build. We invest in our people, we prioritize their safety above everything else, and we've built a culture where doing things the right way isn't optional - it's just how we operate.
Because at the end of the day, our name is on every project we complete. And that still means everything to us.
We take pride in getting it right - not just getting it done. Experienced crews, attention to detail, and no cutting corners. Even when no one's watching.
Nothing matters more than everyone going home safe. Our crews are our family - literally - and we hold ourselves and everyone on our sites to the highest standard. Safety isn't a box to check. It's how we operate, every single day.
When our name is on a project, we take full responsibility for it. We show up, follow through, and stand behind what we build.
Construction is complex - working together shouldn't be. We communicate clearly, stay solution-focused, and respect the people we work alongside.
No two projects are the same. We bring experience, but we stay flexible - ready to adjust, problem-solve, and keep things moving when challenges come up.
Our team is the reason we've been here this long. We invest in our crews, support each other, and build a culture where people take pride in showing up.
