Site Engineering Services

Overview

MK Surveys provides industry-leading site engineering services across the UK, supporting construction and infrastructure projects with precise setting out, survey control establishment, and construction surveying solutions.

Our core services include site control installation, datum and benchmark establishment, construction setting out, as-built surveys, and construction verification. We also deliver structural and deformation monitoring, as well as concrete scanning using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to identify reinforcement, voids, and embedded services—ensuring your project progresses accurately, safely, and in line with design intent.

By combining over 50 years of experience with advanced technology—including robotic total stations, HP SitePrint robotic layout systems, and GPR scanning equipment—we deliver efficient, high-accuracy site engineering support across all stages of construction.

Setting Out & Survey Control Specialists

MK Surveys are specialists in construction setting out and survey control establishment, providing the accurate reference framework required for successful project delivery.

We design, install, and maintain robust site control networks, ensuring all setting out is consistent, repeatable, and aligned with your project coordinates.

Our expertise includes:

• High-precision setting out services for all construction phases
• Establishment of primary and secondary survey control networks
• Accurate datum and benchmark installation
• Integration with GNSS, robotic total stations, and digital design models
• Deployment of HP SitePrint robotic layout solutions for fast, automated marking

By combining traditional surveying expertise with modern robotic layout technology, we improve efficiency, reduce errors, and ensure every element is built exactly as designed.#
