Ford Heights is a small far-south-suburban village with residential blocks, vacant parcels, and industrial land near the rail corridors. Construction here includes residential rebuilds, redevelopment of vacant lots, and site and industrial work, and each begins with staking the design onto the ground. Accurate corners and grades keep these projects aligned to plan.
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.

Ford Heights, a village of about 1,800, lies within Bloom Township in far-south 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 here is a mix of residential rebuilds, redevelopment of underused parcels, and site and industrial work near the rail corridors. Staking sets each approved plan onto the ground so new buildings and utilities take their intended positions.

On redevelopment parcels, staking establishes building corners, grades, and utility positions so crews build to the approved plan and keep everything correctly placed.
It’s the field layout of an approved design — corners, utilities, roads, and grades — so contractors build in the right location and elevation, preventing rework.
After plans are approved and permitted, and before excavation, so the layout is set before the site is disturbed.
