Chamlin & Associates, Inc.

About Us

Chamlin & Associates, Inc. was founded in 1952 in Peru, Illinois and expanded in 1959 by establishing an office in Morris, Illinois. Chamlin & Associates furthered their expansion in 2019 by acquiring the engineering and surveying firm formerly doing business as Vegrzyn, Sarver & Associates, Inc. in Ottawa, Illinois. In 2021, Chamlin & Associates expanded once again with the acquisition of Advanced Engineering Associates (AEA) Inc. in Mendota, Illinois.

Chamlin & Associates is a Type C corporation, incorporated in Delaware, and is structured as an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) company with vested employees comprising the majority ownership of the company. The company has grown modestly, but steadily, for nearly 70 years. Our diversified client base has enabled us to withstand the various economic cycles. As a result, we have not suffered fluctuations in staffing. Our firm consists almost entirely of long-term employees with greater than 15 years’ experience.

The partners and managers of Chamlin & Associates include registered professional engineers, structural engineers, land surveyors, floodplain managers, environmental consultants and project managers. The supporting staff includes engineers, designers, planners, engineering aides, CADD operators and clerical personnel. We are large enough to provide a complete range of consulting services and small enough to provide those services in a personal manner.
