Services
ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys
We conduct ALTA/ACSM-compliant land title surveys to identify property boundaries, easements, and encroachments. Our surveys meet national standards for commercial real estate transactions. Clients receive detailed maps with precise legal descriptions.
Construction Layout
Our construction layout services establish accurate reference points for building projects. We use robotic total stations and GPS technology to mark foundations, utilities, and structural elements. This ensures compliance with architectural plans and zoning regulations.
Hydrographic Surveys
We map underwater terrain for riverbeds, lakes, and coastal areas. Our hydrographic surveys support infrastructure projects and environmental assessments. Data collection includes depth measurements and submerged feature identification.
Boundary Surveys
Our boundary surveys determine legal property lines using historical records and field measurements. We identify existing markers and resolve disputes through precise documentation. Clients receive certified maps for real estate transactions or development.
Subdivision Design
We create subdivision plans that divide large parcels into buildable lots. Our designs comply with municipal codes and include road access, utility placement, and green space allocation. We coordinate with local authorities for plat approval.
