HomeServicesTopographical Land Surveys › Hickory Hills, IL

Hickory Hills is a southwest-suburban city of postwar homes on gently rolling ground near the Palos preserves. Additions and rebuilds here work with modest grade changes and established lots. A topographic survey records those contours so design and drainage suit the site.

What a topographic survey shows

A topographic survey maps the elevations, contours and natural and man-made features of a site — grades, structures, utilities, trees and drainage — giving architects and engineers the data they need to design accurately and secure permits.

Hickory Hills & Cook County specifics

Hickory Hills has roughly 15,000 residents and spans the Lyons and Palos townships in southwest Cook County. Its deeds are recorded through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. Near the Palos forest preserves, the terrain carries more relief than the flat inner suburbs and drains toward the Des Plaines River system, so grade-aware drainage design matters. A topographic survey captures the contours, trees and existing structures on a Hickory Hills lot so engineers can plan grading and drainage that respect the site’s slope.

They differ: a boundary survey marks property lines and a topographic survey maps elevations and features, so many projects need both.
