Construction stakeout marks the precise physical location of planned improvements on the ground — building corners, roadway centerlines, curb and gutter, utility lines, and more — so contractors can build exactly to the approved design.
When you need one:
At the start of any construction project where physical elements (buildings, roads, utilities) must be placed to match engineered plans.
What to expect:
Using RTK GPS and robotic total stations, we translate your approved plan set into physical stakes and markers on-site, coordinating with your general contractor’s schedule.
FAQ
What’s the difference between construction staking and a boundary survey?
A boundary survey establishes where your property lines are; construction staking marks where the building or infrastructure should go relative to the approved plans. Do you use RTK GPS for staking?
Yes — we use RTK and robotic total station technology for faster, highly accurate staking. (See our related article: Using RTK for Construction Staking.)
