Frequently Asked Questions About Construction Layout & Site Control

Have questions about construction layout and site control services in the GTA? We have answers below.

9 Questions Answered

Call Our Team
01

What is construction layout and site control?

Construction layout and site control is the process of accurately transferring the positions, dimensions, and elevations from your engineering and architectural drawings onto the ground at your construction site. Our licensed OLS team uses high-precision total stations and GPS equipment to set out building corners, foundation lines, column grids, and grades with sub-millimetre accuracy — ensuring everything is built exactly where it should be.
02

What is the accuracy of your construction layout services?

Our construction layout services achieve accuracy of ±1mm using high-precision robotic total stations and GPS receivers. This level of accuracy is essential for complex structural work, column grid layouts, and projects where even small positioning errors can have significant downstream consequences for your construction.
03

How quickly can your team mobilize to our construction site?

We coordinate directly with your site superintendent and project manager to schedule mobilization around your construction timeline. For planned layout work we typically mobilize within 2–5 business days of booking. We understand construction schedules are tight and always work to accommodate your project needs across the GTA.
04

What types of construction projects do you provide layout for?

We provide construction layout and site control services for all types of projects across the GTA — including custom homes, multi-residential and condominium buildings, commercial and industrial facilities, institutional buildings, civil infrastructure, road construction, and utility installation projects.
05

What is a site control network and why do I need one?

A site control network is a set of permanent benchmarks and control points established across your construction site that provide a precise reference framework for all layout work throughout the project. Without a properly established control network, layout accuracy degrades over time as construction proceeds — leading to positioning errors that can be costly to correct.
06

How much does construction layout cost in the GTA?

The cost of construction layout and site control services depends on the size and complexity of your project, the number of mobilizations required, and the scope of layout work needed. We provide clear upfront quotes with no hidden fees before any work begins. Contact us with your project details for an accurate quote.

Can you work with our existing engineering drawings and CAD files?

Yes — our team works directly from your architectural and engineering drawings and CAD files. We extract all required layout coordinates and elevations from your design documents before mobilizing to site — ensuring we are fully prepared to set out every element accurately from day one.
08

Who conducts the construction layout on site?
