How it all Started
For over 40 years, Hatton Godat Pantier has been providing professional engineering and surveying services in the South Sound region. The present day firm was created by a second generation merger in 1998 between Howard Godat & Associates (engineers) and James A. Pantier (surveyors), who had worked together on numerous development projects over the years. The result: the creation of the South Sound’s leading provider of comprehensive engineering, surveying, landscape architecture and project management services.
