Bridgeport-Based Thrasher Group Remains in Growth Mode; Acquires Charleston-Based Dunn Engineers

By Connect-Bridgeport Staff on September 03, 2022

The Thrasher Group, Inc. has recently acquired longtime Charleston-based engineering firm, Dunn Engineers. This acquisition adds nearly 20 new staff members to Thrasher’s already robust team of engineering, architectural, and field services personnel.
 
Continuing to focus predominantly on utility engineering, the staff from Dunn Engineers will now become part of The Thrasher Group.  
 
“The acquisition of Dunn is something that I am really excited about,” said Woody Thrasher, president and founder of The Thrasher Group. “Dunn Engineers has always done exceptional work, and it shows through their loyal clientele. We look forward to continuing to give those clients the level of service they have come to expect from their engineering team.”
 
Dunn has built a sterling reputation over the past five decades – engineering everything from small water line extensions through rural West Virginia to major utility plant designs from the ground up.
 
“As the owner of Dunn Engineers for the last 22 of the company’s nearly 50 years of business, I am thrilled that we will be able to continue providing our clients and staff with exceptional service and solutions to infrastructure challenges,” said Wayne Hypes.
 
“Being that I am a Charleston native, I’m particularly passionate about the vitality of homegrown talent,” said Jonathan Carpenter, director of Thrasher’s Water Resources Market. “I’ve spent my career working with incredibly smart, dedicated West Virginians who serve our state’s communities, and I’m thrilled to be expanding Thrasher’s ability to do that through this addition of Dunn’s staff.”
 
The Thrasher Group is a full-service consulting firm that has served clients in West Virginia for nearly four decades. With offices in Bridgeport, Charleston, Beckley, Scott Depot, and Martinsburg, and beyond, Thrasher employs hundreds of professionals throughout West Virginia and the greater Mid-Atlantic Region.
