Residential Surveys


New House Construction

In order to construct a new home, legal and construction surveys are necessary; the exact requirements depend on the municipality. Prior to construction and design, a reposting survey is needed if the property corners are missing. A topographic survey is also required to establish building grades for the new home.

During construction, your contractor will request a layout of the foundation position in the excavation so concrete forms can be erected in the proper location. Most municipalities require a survey of the forms, prior to the pouring of concrete, making certain that the concrete will be in the correct location.

The timing of these surveys critically affects the flow of the construction project and requires collaboration between the builder, designer and surveyor.
