Hickory Hills is a southwest-suburban city of residential subdivisions with commercial pockets along its main roads. Construction is mostly additions and rebuilds on established lots plus commercial infill, and each relies on staking to place the design accurately. Getting corners and setbacks right keeps these builds within their parcels.

What construction staking provides

Construction staking transfers the approved design to the ground — marking building corners, utilities, roads and grades so contractors build exactly where the plans intend. Accurate layout prevents costly rework and keeps projects on schedule.

Hickory Hills & Cook County specifics

Hickory Hills, a city of roughly 14,500, spreads across the Lyons and Palos townships in southwest Cook County. Its deeds, plats, and easements are recorded at the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which absorbed the Recorder of Deeds function in December 2020. Construction in the city is largely residential rebuilds and additions on established lots along with commercial work on the corridors. Putting the approved design on the ground with stakes keeps structures and services correctly located on each parcel.

What Hickory Hills-area clients say

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Staking marks the building line and setbacks so an addition stays within your lot and clear of the neighbors, which is hard to judge accurately by eye.

It’s the field layout of an approved design: a surveyor marks corners, utilities, and grades so contractors build in the right place and grade, preventing rework.

After your plans are approved and permitted, and before construction starts, so the layout is set before any digging.
