Des Plaines carries a mix of aviation-adjacent industrial land, riverfront property, and established neighborhoods, with redevelopment and drainage work an ongoing concern given its low-lying corridors. When a project closes out, a final as-built survey pins down the constructed location and elevation of the improvements and checks them against the approved design. Verified elevations carry particular weight here, where stormwater performance is tied closely to how the site was actually graded.
A final as-built survey documents the actual location and elevation of completed improvements and compares them to the approved plans. Municipalities, engineers and owners rely on it to close out projects and confirm compliance.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
Des Plaines has roughly 60,000 residents and stretches across four townships — Maine, Elk Grove, Wheeling, and Northfield — in northern Cook County. The Des Plaines River runs through it, and the city sits within the county’s flood-prone river network. Plats and recorded survey records for the city are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The final as-built gives the city the engineering verification it needs to accept completed improvements, confirming that as-constructed grades and structures match the approved plans.

Because Des Plaines lies along river and drainage corridors, the as-built’s recorded elevations let the city confirm the site was graded as approved before accepting the completed work.
It is a survey of a finished project that records where improvements were actually built and at what elevation, then compares that to the approved plans.
At closeout, after construction is complete, so the results can be verified against the design during municipal acceptance.
