Lemont sits on the bluffs above the Des Plaines valley and the canal corridor, blending a historic downtown, newer subdivisions, and industrial land along the waterways. Construction here ranges from new residential development on rolling terrain to commercial and industrial work near the canals, and each depends on staking to fix corners and grades. Accurate field layout is especially valuable where the ground itself varies.
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.

Lemont, a village of roughly 17,600 in southwest Cook County, is coextensive with Lemont Township along the Des Plaines River and canal corridor. Its plats, easements, and recorded surveys are held by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which took over the Recorder of Deeds function in December 2020. Construction in the village includes new residential subdivisions on varied terrain, commercial and industrial work near the waterways, and rebuilds and additions in the older core. Because grades change across much of Lemont, precise staking of elevations and building points is important to keeping construction on plan.

Where the ground rises and falls, staking accurate grades and building elevations keeps construction to the approved plan and positioned correctly on the parcel.
It’s the field layout of an approved design — a surveyor marks corners, utilities, roads, and grades so contractors build in the right place and grade, preventing rework.
After plans are approved and permitted, and before excavation, so the layout is set before the site is disturbed.
