When preparing for a construction project, you likely already have the plot of land in mind, but you will need to know the details of the land and the exact location you plan to place your building. A construction survey can help you with this by assessing the existing topography, boundaries, and other buildings on the land. Here are a few ways a construction survey can help you with your construction project.
- Ensure informed decisions: When planning your construction project, you need to choose an exact location on the site for the building. The exact placement can determine drainage around the building, sloping, and more. With a construction survey, we can assess the topography of the lot and provide you information on the existing slopes, elevation, and potential drainage issues so you can make educated decisions on where to place the building that will have the least will work well with the slopes and drainage without issues and how to plan the foundation.
- Recommendations on where to lay wiring and pipes: Once we have completed the initial part of the construction survey, we can also mark our recommendations on where to safely lay pipes and wiring that will be most effective and best fitting with the land.
- Address potential drainage issues before they affect the building: If you run into drainage or other issues while in the middle of your construction project or once the building is already completed, there might be issues with the building as well. Our construction survey can help you address these issues early so you can make the necessary adjustments with land grading or otherwise to avoid issues with the project or building down the road.
