Our clients have one thing in common – they tell us that they appreciate our solution oriented approach – meeting budgets and schedules – and that we are good team players. Our work directly with contractors is a direct benefit to YOU – it sets us apart from most engineers in that we design solutions that are buildable rather than having text book solutions. This approach minimizes construction delays and saves you money.THHinc was named 2010 Small Business of the Year by the Columbia Chamber of Commerce.
