Arlington Heights carries a heavy mix of subdivision homes, commercial corridors, and large redevelopment sites, and every one of them starts with getting the layout right on the ground. From new retail and multifamily projects to additions on established residential lots, construction staking marks the corners, utilities, and grades a design calls for before the first cut of the excavator. Precise field control keeps these builds aligned to plan and inside their boundaries.
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.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
One of Cook County’s largest suburbs at roughly 77,000 residents, Arlington Heights spreads across Wheeling, Elk Grove, and Palatine townships in the county’s northwest corner. Its property records — plats, easements, and recorded surveys — are held by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which merged in the Recorder of Deeds function in December 2020. The village sees a broad range of construction: new commercial and mixed-use development along its main corridors, plus steady residential additions and rebuilds across its mature subdivisions. Staking is the step that ties each of these approved plans to the actual parcel, keeping structures and utilities where they belong.

Staking is the field layout of an approved design — a surveyor marks building corners, utility runs, and grades so crews build in the right place and to the right elevation. It’s the safeguard against pouring or framing off-position.
As soon as the site plan is approved and permits are issued, and before excavation. Setting the layout first prevents the rework that comes from building in the wrong spot.
Yes. Earthwork and equipment often destroy stakes, so we re-establish any lost control points to keep the crew building accurately.
