or more than sixty years, Wight & Company has been an innovator and leader in architecture, engineering and construction professional services. This innovation and leadership is driven by the
needs of Wight’s clients for high quality, budget conscious, on-time project
delivery.
Established in 1939 in Downers’ Grove, Illinois (west suburban Chicago) as an engineering firm, Wight’s expertise has steadily grown to include a comprehensive offering of client-oriented services including architecture, civil engineering, construction services, environmental engineering, sustainable design and technology.
Today, Wight employs more than 155 professionals at its facilities in Chicago and Darien Illinois and South Bend, Indiana. Wight’s clients include municipal, county, state, federal, educational, corporate and recreational entities.
On two recent projects, the Kane County Juvenile Justice Center and Lemont-Bromberek CSD River Valley School, Wight & Company worked with Berridge Licensee, Metalmaster, to provide long-lasting and aesthetic metal standing seam roofing. Metalmaster was able to fabricate continuous-length Berridge standing seam roof and fascia panels to precise lengths on these two projects.
