What Our Clients Say About Us

"Property values in the Village are going up because people want to be here. Retail demand within ten miles of West Main Street is very low, but the Village now has a waiting list due to the economic ecosystem generated by this plan."

– Tommy Sweeney, Glassco Management LLC

"It has been my pleasure, over the last fourteen years, to work with Wendel on several projects. If you are working on an architecture, engineering, energy efficiency, or construction management project, hiring Wendel is a great decision."

– Lynne Johnson, Chairman, Orleans County Legislature

"Wendel was a tremendous partner to PVTA on this very successful project. Their vast experience with FTA grant-funded projects also proved most valuable. "

– John M. Burke, Manager of Capital Projects, Pioneer Valley Transit Authority

"Our LED street lighting project not only provided energy and cost savings to the Village ... but it also came in under budget, and with a shorter construction schedule than was originally planned."

– William C. Schroeder, Mayor, Village of Lancaster
