Pre-Survey Assessment

A Precise Start — A Confident Project

When planning the construction of a home or a mini-hotel, it’s critical to understand your land not just in general terms, but through the lens of engineering specifics:
slopes, boundaries, orientation, setbacks, zoning limitations — all of these directly impact the cost, comfort, and timeline of your project.

VIGO HOUSE’s Pre-Survey is a professional land assessment with a full-scale 1:1 physical visualization of your future building layout — right on the ground.
It’s a step that gives you clarity before design, investment, or documentation even begins.

What’s Included in a Pre-Survey

  1. Engineering Site Analysis
    – Digital terrain mapping and slope measurement
    – Boundary verification, zoning and setback checks
    – Access points, utility planning, and obstacle detection
    – Risk and limitation assessment before design begins
  2. 1:1 Building Visualization On-Site
    – Using Moasure PRO 2 (GPS, gyroscope, accelerometer, laser navigation)
    – Activating Layout Mode to draw the exact building footprint on the land
    – Marking corners, walls, entrances, and terraces — feel the scale of your future space
  3. Interactive Placement Scenarios
    – Move the home across the lot in real-time
    – Test multiple orientations: sun exposure, privacy, views, access, wind protection
    – Choose the most logical placement based on land features
  4. Comprehensive Engineering Report
    – Detailed PDF with site parameters and technical recommendations
    – DWG, PDF, CSV files for architects and engineers
    – Photo documentation with layout markings
    – Clear conclusion: Can you build here? What size? Where exactly?

What Pre-Survey Gives You

  • Clarity on whether your lot suits your building concept
  • Confidence before investing in design or documentation
  • Time and budget savings by avoiding rework or poor assumptions
  • Informed decision-making before launch
  • Engineering-level data for precise architectural planning
  • Readiness to move forward — if everything checks out, design and permitting can begin

Pre-Survey for Mini-Hotels

Typical surveying for lots from 0.5 to 2 acres in Canada ranges from $7,000 to $15,000 CAD — and usually does not include visualization, live positioning, or full-scale layout.

We offer a precise and budget-friendly alternative:

  • Pre-Survey for mini-hotel lots: $1,650 CAD
    (For properties over 2 acres, ask your manager for a custom quote)
  • Pre-Survey for private lots (one home): $500 CAD

And here’s the best part: if you build with us, the Pre-Survey cost is fully credited back toward your deposit — meaning the service ends up free of charge.

Pre-Survey — A Technical Rehearsal for Construction

You’ll see exactly where the house will stand. You’ll stand in it yourself — before design, permits, or digging even begins.

Want to know — clearly and confidently — if, where, and how you can build?
