About Krier & Blain, Inc.

Company History

Krier & Blain was organized in 1979 as a partnership between Chuck Blain and Gary Krier, later being incorporated in 1980. Chuck and Gary both retired in 1998. K&B has since grown to over 100 employees, 4 licensed engineers, numerous project managers, accounting, and administrative staff. Being locally owned and operated, K&B continues to uphold the high standard of work that was set forth by both Chuck and Gary and has continued to be a driving force in the industry.

Today, we can draft, design, 3D model, and perform digital estimation & layout of any project. This includes robotic site layout for coordination and installation along with verification of existing conditions.
