HomeServicesConstruction Layout & Staking › Marseilles, IL

Marseilles is a small city on the Illinois River in LaSalle County, a river town with a long industrial and canal history. Construction staking here supports residential and commercial builds, riverside projects and municipal site work by placing engineered plans on the ground. On river-adjacent sites, staking corners, utilities and grades to design elevation matters.

Marseilles & LaSalle County specifics

Marseilles, home to about 4,845 residents in Manlius Township (spanning into Rutland and Brookfield township areas), sits on the Illinois River in LaSalle County, whose seat is Ottawa. Because the river carries FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas near the city, staking finished-floor and pad elevations, drainage and utility grades to the design is important on sites close to the water. Deeds and plats for Marseilles are recorded with the LaSalle County Recorder of Deeds in Ottawa. Whether the work is a residential build, a commercial project or a municipal improvement, construction staking lays the approved design out on the ground so the contractor has accurate field references near the river.
