The construction market is one of the largest industries in the entire world. The value of U.S. local and state government non-residential construction alone was upwards of $257 billion in 2016. Because these non-residential construction projects are so large, civil construction contractors are often consulted to provide professional survey services.

No matter the construction job, planning is an absolute must and is always the first step. If you’re beginning a construction job on a site that was not prior surveyed, there could be serious issues that arise that not only jeopardize the completion of the job but the safety of all workers involved.
