Northfield is a small North Shore-area village of affluent residential neighborhoods and select commercial development. Construction here favors additions, renovations, and rebuilds, and construction staking places new foundations, grades, and utilities precisely relative to setbacks and existing structures. That precision keeps a Northfield project within its boundaries on established lots.
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.
Northfield has about 5,800 residents and spans Northfield and New Trier townships in northern Cook County. The recorded plats, deeds, and easements that guide layout are held by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. Because the village is largely built, construction consists mainly of rebuilds, additions, and commercial site work where new foundations must respect setbacks and grades. Staking each corner against the recorded plat is what allows this infill to proceed within the property lines.

Yes. On Northfield’s established lots we stake foundation corners, setbacks, and grades so rebuilds and additions fit within the property lines.
A current boundary survey establishes the property corners, and the staking then ties the new addition to those corners and the required setbacks.
