Why Hayden?
We solve problems.
Whether a problem is simple or complex, urban or rural, we deliver efficient, safe and environmentally responsible solutions. Clients frequently choose us for their most challenging projects. Our experienced staff is always up to the task, thanks to rigorous training, continuing education and a strict quality-control process. Repeat business is proof of our excellent reputation for delivering high-quality, creative, effective engineering design services.
We put our clients first.
We treat clients the way we’d like to be treated: honestly, candidly, fairly, and without hassles and headaches. Because we work as both prime consultants and subconsultants, we understand what it’s like to be a client. We believe in open communication, both with our clients and our team members.
Completing quality work that is accurate, on time and on budget is our primary goal. Our tightly knit, flexible team can handle unexpected requests or changes in project direction quickly and seamlessly. Cross-training ensures that everyone at the firm is educated on every project, so any Hayden team member can jump in to help when questions arise. And when changes are necessary, we don’t nickel and dime at every turn.
We create design with construction in mind: clear, comprehensive and correct.
The true measure of our work is successful construction. Our ongoing training ensures that our professionals are skilled in the latest tools and technology, so our high-quality plans are clear, precise, easy-to-read and professional. We cover our bases when it comes to design, drawing on our
experience, knowledge and careful planning to anticipate and avoid potential project snags. This thorough approach means our plans get constructed efficiently, without surprises or errors, and are designed to last.
We are friendly and responsive professionals.
Our firm aims to not only deliver exceptional work, but also to make the project process as easy and pleasant as possible for our clients. We’re approachable, responsive and easy to work with, so we fit seamlessly within project teams, even on complex engagements where multiple organizations are involved.
We’re an ethical firm that values work-life balance, making for happy employees who love what they do and enjoy the freedom to pursue their diverse interests and experiences. Our low employee-turnover rate supports our long-term commitment to our clients and their projects.
We are committed to our communities and our environment.
We are proud that the work we do improves the infrastructure of our community. That’s one reason why we actively promote our profession through community outreach that educates young people about careers in civil engineering. We are also strongly committed to sustainable design.
We understand some property owners’ “not in my backyard” stance when it comes to certain projects. We put ourselves in these community members’ shoes, and design a project that is sensitive to their concerns and to the environment. We’re always available to attend public meetings and explain project implications to the community using clear language, photos and models.
