Services
Land Surveying
Our comprehensive land surveying services cover boundary determination, topographic mapping, and legal documentation. We use GPS control surveys and aerial mapping technology to deliver precise measurements for residential and commercial properties. Our team's expertise in Colorado Real Property Boundary Law ensures legally defensible results that meet municipal requirements.
Construction Staking
We provide accurate construction staking services for infrastructure and building projects. Our process establishes precise reference points using digital terrain models and total station instruments. This ensures proper alignment and elevation for foundations, roads, and utilities, minimizing costly rework during construction phases.
Elevation Certification
Our elevation certifications determine property flood risk zones through detailed elevation measurements. We create FEMA-compliant documentation for insurance requirements and building permits, using differential leveling techniques to verify structure elevations relative to base flood elevations.
Boundary Surveys
We conduct thorough boundary surveys to resolve property disputes and establish legal land divisions. Our process includes title document research, physical evidence analysis, and monumentation of corners. We follow the Colorado Supreme Court's boundary law precedents to deliver court-admissible survey results.
Municipal Surveys
We support local governments with municipal survey services including right-of-way mapping and infrastructure planning. Our team performs ALTA/ACSM surveys for public projects and prepares subdivision plats that meet county recording standards, ensuring compliance with local zoning regulations.
