Services
ALTA Surveys
Our ALTA surveys meet the highest industry standards for commercial property transactions. We provide detailed boundary analysis, easement identification, and title report integration. This service ensures legal compliance and minimizes risks for property buyers and lenders.
Boundary Surveys
We precisely determine property boundaries using advanced GPS technology and historical records. Our boundary surveys resolve disputes, support land development, and establish legal markers. Clients receive comprehensive documentation for legal and planning purposes.
Construction Stakeout
Our construction stakeout services ensure accurate implementation of architectural plans. We use robotic instruments and CAD software to mark building corners, utilities, and grading points. This guarantees alignment with design specifications and regulatory requirements.
Topographical Surveys
We create detailed topographical maps showing natural and man-made features. Using Leica robotic instruments and Carlson software, we capture elevation data, vegetation, and structures. These surveys support engineering, zoning, and environmental assessments.
Subdivision Surveys
Our subdivision services include minor and major lot divisions. We handle plat preparation, regulatory approvals, and physical boundary establishment. This ensures compliance with local ordinances while optimizing land use for residential or commercial development.
