Services
Boundary Surveys
Our boundary surveys precisely determine property lines, easements, and encroachments using historical records and modern field measurements. This service helps prevent disputes during property transactions or construction projects. We follow strict legal standards to ensure accurate documentation for coastal and inland properties.
Topographic Surveys
We create detailed elevation models showing natural features and man-made improvements for engineering and architectural design. Our surveys support drainage planning, road construction, and building development in coastal environments. Data is collected using GPS and robotic instruments for maximum accuracy.
Construction Staking
Our team establishes precise reference points for new construction projects including buildings, roads, and utilities. We work closely with contractors to ensure structures meet design specifications and zoning requirements. This service maintains compliance throughout the development process.
Elevation Certificates
We prepare FEMA-compliant elevation certificates to determine flood insurance requirements for coastal properties. These documents verify building elevations relative to floodplain levels, helping property owners secure accurate insurance coverage and meet municipal regulations.
Deed Research
Our comprehensive deed research traces property ownership history and boundary descriptions from public records. This service identifies legal easements and encumbrances before boundary surveys or land transactions. We maintain detailed records for coastal properties with complex historical claims.
