Surveys are performed by a certified, trained, and educated land surveyor as a way to measure, map, evaluate, and confirm land or property lines. Surveying is done by professionals using a combination of skills and equipment. Land and property surveyors help businesses in the key planning processes of land development. Every survey is different, but an experienced surveying engineer can help with a variety of commercial projects.
Many key players in commercial construction, development, and real estate benefit from the services of surveyors. For example, architects, engineers, developers, title companies, lenders, developers, and business owners can all gain important insight with the help of land surveys. And in many cases, particularly when it comes to commercial projects, surveys are required by certain parties to begin or move forward.

Although many types of surveying exist, commercial surveying refers specifically to surveys that outline boundaries and details as they apply to commercial properties. A commercial survey will help establish or confirm property lines as well as identify improvements that have been made to the property and note existing building lines and easements. Commercial surveys are used for properties that are zoned for commercial land use and help provide necessary information to everyone from business owners to insurance companies.
Commercial surveying is a requirement for many parties involved in commercial real estate, such as lenders and title companies. These parties require the most accurate information available to complete real estate transactions or begin development. This is why finding the most experienced commercial surveyors is so important.

We know that when it comes to commercial surveys, even the smallest discrepancy can be detrimental to your project's timeline and budget, so we ensure surveys are completed on time, with precision, and with no issues.
Our Austin and Houston teams offer consulting services to help determine your surveying needs and then we proceed in moving forward with our wide range of commercial surveying and platting services. Our teams, which are capable of servicing all areas throughout Texas, are extensively experienced in commercial surveys for all commercial property types, including neighborhoods, apartment complexes, healthcare centers, shopping centers, and more.

Platting is an essential part of the commercial development process. Commercial property platting requires multiple parties to work together to ensure that local and state laws are followed and that the property owners are fully informed on the details of their property. When doing commercial development, business owners must have current surveys in order to incorporate the necessary data into a new plat for compliance with municipal zoning and land development regulations.

A vital part of the commercial development process, construction staking involves taking planned improvements for commercial projects and physically mapping them out on the site. This helps your project jump from the page of your blueprints to the actual land itself so work can begin.

Regardless of where your commercial project is taking place, an elevation certificate is important for establishing your building's exact location, the lowest point of elevation, and any flood zones, if applicable. This is essential for determining flood insurance rates.

Before making any improvements or additions to a property, you must know the physical details of the land, including elevations, natural characteristics such as bodies of water and trees, location of utilities, contours, grades, and much more. Topographical surveys help outline this information for designers and architects so they can accurately plan their commercial projects with confidence.
