Boundary

Our team has over 25 years of experience in determining the location of existing or proposed boundaries such as property lines, easements and lease areas. With our expertise, we can help guide you through any boundary disputes that you may be facing.

Topographic

One of the most important services that surveyors offer is the ability to accurately locate the physical features of a property. Once the data is collected in the field, the data is processed, and a map is drafted which depicts those collected features.

As-Built

Once new construction has been completed, many jurisdictions require mapping documentation for the location of the constructed improvements. These maps are often used to determine compliance with approved construction plans.

New Construction

From designing subdivision, to staking the location of improvements in the field, we pride ourselves on the ability to take your development goals to completion. We implement quality control checks in our workflow to ensure we meet the required accuracies of the project and jurisdictional standards.

Control Networks

Control networks are a system of precisely established survey-grade markers with defined horizontal and/or vertical positions. Once established, these markers can be used as a basis to control future projects in a variety of applications such as machine control, photogrammetry and UAS drone operations.

Flood-Related

Is your property located within a floodplain? We have a Certified Floodplain Manager (CFM) that can answer any questions you may have. We offer consultation services for floodplain projects, including expert knowledge on conducting and preparing Elevation Certificates and Letter of Map Amendments (LOMA).
