Lehman Daman Celebrates Five Years in Westerville This December, Lehman Daman Construction Services will celebrate two milestone anniversaries: 10 years as part of the Rudolph Libbe Group, and five years in Westerville. Lehman Daman, located at 975 Eastwind Drive, provides unique construction solutions that empower businesses to continue expansion and developmental growth. Customers include many Westerville companies and institutions such as Westerville City Schools; Ohio ENT, Westerville; Westerville South Peace Garden and more. The business has deep roots, extending throughout Central Ohio. Lehman Daman was founded by John C. Lehman in 1946, and was formerly known as Lehman Construction. Jim Daman joined the team in 1995. Shortly after the business shifted from residential construction to business construction. After Daman gained full ownership of Lehman Daman, the company was later acquired by the Rudolph Libbe Group in 2013. The company then opened the Westerville office in 2018 under the new leadership of Jimmy Hoben. “At Lehman Daman, we’re focused on positively changing the narrative for the companies we work with. It’s been an incredible experience being housed in Westerville,” said Lehman Daman Marketing Coordinator Sonja Govedarica. “Our relationship with the City has impacted our company greatly. They have made our presence in the City a possibility, due to their Economic Development team and the ways in which they are equally invested in our success.” Govedarica says Lehman Daman is looking forward to the next 10 years in Westerville; to continue growing the company and contributing to the community. “This celebration is much deserved for all our employees and their families. It will be a time of reflection on all we’ve accomplished in Westerville and on our upcoming expansion in the City,” she said. The group will be celebrating their 10-year anniversary on Saturday, Dec. 2 at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.
