Services
Boundary Surveys
Our boundary surveys establish precise property lines through historical research and field measurements. We utilize modern GPS technology alongside traditional monumentation methods to resolve disputes and support real estate transactions. Clients receive detailed plats documenting easements, encroachments, and legal descriptions.
Subdivisions
We design and document land subdivisions meeting municipal zoning requirements. Services include topographic mapping, utility planning, and preparation of final plats for county recording. Our team coordinates with local engineers to ensure infrastructure compliance for residential and commercial developments.
Construction Layout
Our construction layout services translate architectural plans into physical markers using total stations and GPS. We verify elevations, building setbacks, and utility placements before grading begins. This prevents costly rework while maintaining adherence to permitting specifications for commercial and residential projects.
FEMA Certificates
We provide FEMA elevation certificates documenting building elevations relative to flood zones. These are required for flood insurance rate determination in high-risk areas. Our surveys include detailed elevation data collection and certification by licensed surveyors for NFIP compliance.
Topographic Mapping
Our topographic surveys capture natural and man-made features with elevation data. Using robotic total stations and GPS, we create contour maps for site planning, drainage analysis, and environmental assessments. Deliverables include digital terrain models and cross-sectional profiles for engineering applications.
