Grading & Earthworks Surveying
Geo Vision Surveying Inc provides grading layout, elevation checks and earthworks surveying for residential lots, commercial sites and construction projects across Southern Ontario. We support builders, excavation contractors, landscapers and civil contractors with defined survey tasks.
Layout and Grade Checks
Using supplied design plans, we set out agreed positions and elevations and measure site levels to support excavation, grading and construction. The survey scope, tolerances and reporting requirements are confirmed before work begins.
We provide measurements and survey data to support the grading plan prepared by your engineer or designer. Grading and drainage design are not included in our surveying service.
Earthworks and Site Development
Our services include existing-conditions measurements and volume calculations for earthworks and stockpiles. We can also discuss surveying support for landscaping, retaining-wall layout and appropriate landfill construction or earthworks packages.
Grading work starts with a topographic survey and ends with as-built grading checks. We regularly work in Hagersville and Haldimand County. For Haldimand County projects, the County’s building permit requirements explain the site plan information your application needs.
Questions about grading surveys
What is a grading survey?
A survey that measures or sets ground elevations before, during or after earthworks, so finished grades can be checked against the approved grading design.
What should I send for a grading survey quote?
Your site location, the design or grading drawings, your project schedule and the survey work you need. We confirm the scope, tolerances and reporting requirements before work begins.
