Hometown is a tiny southwest-suburban city of compact postwar homes on a small, tightly platted footprint. Additions and garages are the common projects here, each starting with a topographic survey of a small, flat lot. Those grades determine how water moves between closely set houses.
A topographic survey maps the elevations, contours and natural and man-made features of a site — grades, structures, utilities, trees and drainage — giving architects and engineers the data they need to design accurately and secure permits.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
Hometown has roughly 4,000 residents and is coextensive with a portion of Worth Township in southwest Cook County. Its land records are maintained by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The city is flat and drains toward the Calumet river system, so precise elevation differences shape how a rebuilt or expanded lot handles runoff. A topographic survey provides the contours and spot elevations engineers use to grade a Hometown property so drainage stays controlled on its small, established lots.

Yes; on compact lots the exact elevations of the yard, walks and neighboring grades govern drainage, and a topographic survey gives your engineer that detail for a workable grading plan.
Ground elevations and contours plus the house, driveway, walks, fences, trees and visible utility structures, all in CAD.
For many projects yes; the boundary survey sets the property lines and the topographic survey provides elevations and features, and they are frequently ordered together.
