SURVEYING

Schwab-Eaton was established in 1957 by Merle Schwab and Frank Eaton, and originally provided engineering services devoted to roads and bridges.

Evolving from the civil engineering projects were survey teams that provided the design surveys required for the development of plans. This survey operation has branched out to a full service facility providing a broad spectrum of surveys. We have four to five complete crews in Manhattan and one in Beloit. The crews are equipped with highly precise total station measuring instruments, automatic levels, pin finders, two way radios, and four wheel drive survey vehicles. We are also equipped with GPS total stationing, providing a real time kinematic GPS Survey System that provides us with the most productive survey tools available.

Schwab-Eaton has the most complete survey records in the City of Manhattan and Riley and Pottawatomie Counties. This results in a savings to the client in time and money. We have more than 10,000 surveys on record which means we may have information benefiting your survey. That is why it pays to use Schwab-Eaton. Estimates are free and if you check around we are confident you will find that we will provide the best service for the cost.
