DLH inc is excited to announce the start of two new projects! As of late the building market has been painfully slow, but we are happy to report a recent large uptick in the amount of jobs we are bidding. The slowdown afforded us the opportunity to sit down and have productive meetings with a number of new and familiar architects providing us the chance to bid a wide variety of projects.
