A Legacy of Service to Clients and Communities

Wightman History

Our company roots go back more than 77 years to when Wightman got its start serving the engineering and surveying needs of municipalities in southwestern Michigan. Since then, our client base has grown and so has our expertise and team.

Today, in addition to serving government entities, we specialize in the commercial, energy, and education sectors throughout Michigan, Indiana, and the Great Lakes region.

Founded in 1946, Wightman’s Michigan locations include Benton Harbor, Kalamazoo, Allegan, Hastings, Royal Oak, and Southgate. In 2021, the Wightman team grew to include two Indiana locations with the addition of Lang, Feeney, & Associates, Inc. and its subsidiaries—Creekside Mortgage Surveys Inc. of South Bend, R.E. Daake & Associates of Rochester, and Plymouth Land Survey & Design of Plymouth. In 2023, Wightman added a satellite office in Plymouth, taking the number of Indiana locations to three. The firm's continued growth became readily apparent in 2023 when a new Wightman office opened in Fort Wayne through the acquisition of Gouloff-Jordan Surveying & Design, Inc. This new office location allows us to better serve our current clients and engage new ones.

As our clients have grown, our services have evolved, too. Our ability to provide in-house civil engineering, surveying, architectural design, GIS, interior design, landscape architecture, and reality capture makes us the single-source planning, design, and consulting partner for so many of our clients now and into the future.
