Who needs Construction As-Built Surveys?

There are all different kinds of land surveys for residential and commercial construction projects. While most surveys are done before actual building begins, most projects require construction as-builts for various reasons and by many different parties, including banks, state and local authorities, engineers and your construction contractor.

As-built surveys are done in the middle of and after the completion of construction. As-builts surveys are very useful in providing valuable information about the building’s current structure and components.

Construction as-built surveys may be required to monitor the construction, whether the job is being done properly, the level of completion, and whether the construction taking place is the authorized one. This information can be used to extend deadlines, and correct violations. It is important to have a surveying firm to complete this work, since any errors can be expensive and embarrassing.

Construction as-built surveys are also required once construction is complete to obtain a Certificate of Occupancy. This verifies completion of all requirements. As-built surveys can also be used while purchasing an existing building to verify what is being purchased and the land lines in the purchase agreement. The job may seem simple but it is imperative to have a qualified land surveying firm finish the job.

Whether you need a survey of an existing building or a new construction, a highly qualified survey can get the job done thoroughly and in a timely manner.
