HomeServicesConstruction Layout & Staking › Port Barrington, IL

Port Barrington is a small village along the Fox River at the southeastern edge of McHenry County, with waterfront residential lots. Construction staking puts an approved design on the ground so builders can set corners, utilities, drives and grades correctly. On riverfront lots, precise grade layout is key to keeping drainage aligned with the engineering.

Port Barrington & McHenry County specifics

Port Barrington has about 1,600 residents and lies primarily within McHenry County along the Fox River. Its plats and easements record with the McHenry County Recorder in Woodstock, the county seat, and the Fox River running along the village brings FEMA flood-hazard mapping to the corridor. For residential sites and site improvements, staking provides building corners, driveway and utility alignments, and grade stakes referenced to the recorded plat and to control. That layout keeps structures clear of easements and floodway limits along the river. Grade marks help the site meet the design elevations on waterfront lots.
