Why Kaminskiy Commercial Construction for Your Site Surveys


Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it typically take to complete a preliminary site survey?

The time required for a preliminary site survey varies, depending largely on the site’s size, topography, and complexity. At Kaminskiy Commercial Construction, we prioritize efficiency without compromising on detail. Our goal is to deliver comprehensive and accurate survey results in the shortest time possible, facilitating a smooth start to your project.

Why is a soil analysis crucial for my construction project?

Conducting a soil analysis is a fundamental step in construction planning. It provides vital information about the soil’s bearing capacity, which is essential for making informed foundational decisions. This analysis helps in ensuring the long-term stability and safety of your structure, mitigating risks associated with ground instability.

Is it possible to proceed with construction without a site survey?

While bypassing a site survey might seem like a time-saver, it often leads to unexpected complications, escalating costs, and potential delays. A comprehensive site survey is indispensable as it reveals critical information about the land, including hidden challenges that could impact your project. We strongly advise undertaking a thorough survey to lay a solid foundation for your construction plans.

What if I already have an old survey of the site?

An existing survey can offer some useful insights, but it’s typically advisable to conduct a new survey for the most current and relevant data. This is especially true if there have been substantial time lapses or modifications to the site or its surroundings. A fresh survey ensures you have the latest information, reflecting any environmental or regulatory changes that could affect your project.

How does a site survey assist in managing environmental and regulatory compliance?

Our site surveys encompass a thorough environmental assessment and a review of local zoning and land use regulations. This ensures your project adheres to environmental guidelines and regulatory requirements, thereby avoiding legal issues and ensuring sustainable construction practices. Understanding these aspects early on aids in planning a compliant and eco-friendly project.
