Wonder Lake is a lake-centered community in central McHenry County, with residential neighborhoods ringing its namesake reservoir. Construction staking is how an approved plan becomes physical marks, corners, utilities, drives and grades, for a builder to construct from. On lakeside and larger-lot sites, precise grade layout keeps drainage aligned with the engineering.
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.

Wonder Lake has about 4,000 residents and lies in Greenwood Township, reaching into McHenry and Hartland townships. Its plats and easements record with the McHenry County Recorder in Woodstock, the county seat, and its drainage sits within the Fox River watershed where FEMA flood-hazard mapping applies. For homes and site improvements, staking provides building corners, driveway and utility alignments, and grade stakes referenced to the recorded plat and to control. That layout keeps structures inside setbacks and clear of easements and drainage features. Grade marks help the site meet the design elevations near the water.
Yes; staking sets building corners, driveway and utility alignments, and grade marks so the home and site work stay within the platted lot and setbacks.
