Construction Surveying Services

We provide construction layout, as-built surveys, and UAV drone progress surveys that keep active job sites on plan and on schedule.

Our Raleigh-based crews work directly with contractors and project managers across Eastern North Carolina to establish reliable control, stake buildings, utilities, roadways, curb and gutter, and site features, then verify completed work so submittals are straightforward.

Clear scopes, precise staking, and consistent field verification reduce rework and help maintain project momentum from start to finish.

Construction Surveys We Provide

  • Construction Layout — for buildings, utilities, roadways, curb and gutter, limits of disturbance, and site features.
  • As-Built Surveys — to verify completed locations and elevations for approvals and closeout.
  • UAV (Drone) Surveys — for job progress documentation and earthwork volume tracking (cut, fill, stockpiles).

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common questions about our construction surveying services.

We stake buildings, utilities, roadways, curb and gutter, limits of disturbance, walls, light poles, and site features—establishing reliable control so field crews can build to plan. We also do site control and 3D modeling for machine control, delivering models in a timely manner in any format required including Trimble, Topcon, Unicom, Carlson, and more.

As-built surveys confirm installed locations and elevations match the plans, providing clear documentation for compliance, approvals, and project closeout.

Yes. We perform UAV (drone) surveys for site documentation and calculate cut, fill, and stockpile volumes to support coordination and pay applications.

We work from verified control and benchmarks and coordinate on plan updates, helping maintain on-plan, on-schedule layout throughout construction.

We work directly with contractors and project managers. To begin, share the project location, current plans (PDF/CAD), what needs to be staked or verified, and your target dates.

We’re based in Raleigh, Little Washington, and Johnston County serving Eastern, Central, and greater North Carolina.
