Gaston Engineering & Surveying is a full-service civil engineering and land surveying firm in Bozeman, built on practical expertise and long-standing relationships cultivated since 1981.
Love Lane Storage Project
For over 45 years, we've helped Montanans build what they're trying to build — without getting buried in the process.
OUR HISTORY
One of the first civil engineering firms to establish roots in the Gallatin Valley.
Gaston Engineering & Surveying was founded in Bozeman by Jerry Gaston. What started as a small local practice grew alongside the region itself, taking on increasingly complex projects as Montana developed and the communities around Bozeman expanded.
Jerry remained deeply involved with the firm and its people well into his eighties. Today, the firm is led by his daughter, Julie Gaston — a continuation of the steady, hands-on approach the company was built on from the beginning.
“Over four decades, we've weathered the economic cycles that have come and gone in Montana, the booms that brought new clients and the downturns that tested every firm in the valley. Others have closed or relocated. We're still here, still local, and still doing the same work we've always done.”
- Julie Gaston, President
WHO WE ARE
Gaston Engineering is made up of professional engineers, licensed land surveyors, certified soils technicians, design professionals, and construction specialists who have spent their careers working in this region.
Montana's terrain, geology, regulatory environment, and agency relationships are specific, meaning experience in this state transfers in ways that out-of-state credentials don't.
When you work with Gaston Engineering, you work with the people actually doing your project. You'll know who they are, you can reach them directly, and they'll know your project without having to be briefed every time you call.
LEADERSHIP TEAM
WHAT WE DO
We provide civil engineering, land surveying, geotechnical services, construction materials testing, and environmental and planning services, all in-house under one roof. Our clients range from individual homeowners navigating a first survey and regional developers managing multi-phase subdivisions, to municipalities upgrading aging infrastructure and national retailers breaking ground in a new market.
The work varies. The approach doesn't. Every project gets the same standard of technical rigor, the same honest communication, and the same commitment to seeing it through.

OUR COMMITMENT
We're proud to help shape the infrastructure and communities that define Montana. The roads, water and sewer systems, subdivisions, and commercial developments we've engineered over the past four decades are still out there. People use them every day.
Our work will outlive us, and it’s built to.
We take it seriously because the stakes are real — for the landowners, the communities, and the land itself.
