Literally the worst company I have ever worked with. It took us 8 months to parcel off our land because they do not know what they are doing. They quoted the job then came back asking for more money to complete accurate requirements because the city rejected their incomplete survey. Disrespectful on the phone to us…

Highly recommend! Great experience with having two lots surveyed - always returned texts/emails quickly and we were very happy with the price. Worked with us to have it completed within the closing time frame for our contract and received the final report quickly as well! Will definitely use again for any future surveying needs!

I have worked with Eric and Clint on several projects and have excellent results to share. When the situation called for going the extra mile, I was grateful and impressed. I am cautious to recommend anybody, but I highly recommend these guys. You are appreciated gentlemen.

Disrespectful on the phone to us and refused to address issues when there was incomplete information with the title company and county. Do not hire these guys if you need land parceled legally.

Aside from being disrespectful to the community, this reflects poorly on your company’s standards and professionalism. Employees in clearly marked vehicles discarding trash onto a public street is a poor representation of the company. I hope this is addressed internally, as it raises concerns about accountability and the level of care your team shows, both on and off the job.
