Services
ALTA/ACSM Surveys
Our ALTA/ACSM land title surveys meet national standards for commercial property transactions. We verify property boundaries, identify easements, and document improvements to protect against title disputes. This service includes detailed mapping of encroachments and compliance with both state regulations and federal requirements for land transfers.
Boundary Surveys
We conduct precise boundary surveys to establish or re-establish property lines using historical records and modern technology. Our process includes locating existing monuments, identifying encroachments, and creating Google Earth-integrated maps. This service supports property development, estate divisions, and conflict resolution for parcels over 25 acres.
Topographic Surveys
Our topographic surveys capture natural and man-made features to create detailed elevation models. Using advanced surveying equipment, we map contours, structures, and water bodies to support construction planning and land development. This service integrates with CAD software for engineering and environmental assessments.
Federal Land Surveys
As Certified Federal Land Surveyors, we perform surveys for U.S. government agencies and tribal officials. Our work meets federal standards for public land management, mineral rights, and infrastructure projects.
