Services
Boundary Surveying
We conduct precise boundary surveys for residential and commercial properties using advanced GPS technology. Our surveys identify property lines, easements, and encroachments to prevent legal disputes during real estate transactions or development projects. Clients receive detailed documentation meeting all state and federal standards.
Topographic Mapping
Our topographic surveys create detailed elevation models for site planning and construction projects. Using robotic total stations and GPS systems, we map natural features and man-made structures to support drainage planning, road design, and building placement in mountainous regions.
FEMA Elevation Certificates
Certified floodplain surveyors provide FEMA elevation certificates for properties in high-risk flood zones. We expedite LOMA applications and offer free flood risk analyses to help clients reduce insurance costs while meeting regulatory requirements for property development.
Construction Staking
We establish precise reference points for residential and commercial construction projects. Our staking services guide grading, foundation placement, and utility installation using robotic total stations to ensure structures align perfectly with approved site plans.
Subdivision Planning
We design residential and commercial subdivisions including roadways, lot layouts, and erosion control plans. Our team coordinates with local governments to secure necessary permits and prepares final plats for recording, ensuring compliance with zoning regulations and environmental standards.
