Accurate staking is essential at every step of the commercial property development process to avoid costly errors and downtime during construction. Because many subcontractors are working and interacting on the site, staking reduces the risk of mistakes because the exact locations of every element are clearly marked. A Commercial Site Layout Survey starts with completion of a boundary and topographic survey to be used for site planning and engineering design. Our land surveyors then take the architect or engineer's design plans and mark the correct locations on the site for placement of all utilities and improvements on the property.

We have been assisting residential homeowners with their property survey needs for over three decades. We commonly provide research of legal descriptions and property lines, field location of existing survey monuments, field setting of lot corners and survey drafting. Homeowners use land surveys for a variety of purposes, from determining the best placement of a new home on a property to putting in improvements such as a fence, garage, storage shed or a home addition. E.G. Rud & Sons is familiar with local permitting processes in Minnesota and will provide the level of survey detail needed for any residential property project.
