We didn't end up actually needing to purchase the survey, but Kevin still took the time to answer all of my questions, and even sent me over the property records he pulled for me free or charge. Did I mention he did this the same day I called him? Everyone else was booked and wouldn't even speak with me. I highly encourage everyone to use Caliland Engineering for all their surveying and property needs.

Buyers beware. This guy Kevin is the worst He promises the world and claims he can do everything including grading plans. He delayed my project because he is incompetent w grading. Please be careful with this guy. He tells you he is the most important person to help with your project then over charges and under delivers and can cause your project to be delayed for months! People tried me to warn me about him but didnt listen and got burned. Please dont be fooled like i was.

Kevin is top notch. Very responsive to both my calls and my emails (even on on the weekends). He expedited the return of my plans for submission to the city on a rush basis to allow for the completion of my building. Kevin made himself available to both the contractor, architect and all necessary parties to complete the drainage plan for our property. Finally, his prices were very reasonable.

Another Civil Engineer wanted to charge me an additional $6,000 for testing. Kevin told me that, according his expertise and opinion, he wanted to complete the plans and only charge me anything extra if the city actually asked for it. Feels great as the consumer when the person you hire is looking out for you. Finally, as for the response times on Yelp, as a business owner, some people submit requests on weekends or at 1:00 a.m. in the morning etc.

I believe that Yelp accounts for that in making subsequent adjustments to the response time. Thanks Kevin. Would highly recommend. Please feel free to contact me via Yelp if there is anything else you may questions about.

Called Caliland Engineering on 08/23/19 to get a survey done on my property. I got a proposal in the email later that afternoon from Kevin. Had a question about the proposal since I wasn't very familiar with the aspects of the survey. I called on a Saturday and Sunday and surprisingly Kevin actually answered even though they weren't open.

His proposal was precise. Nothing hidden. He knew how important this survey was to me and made the time to come out on 08/26/19 to get it done. He himself showed up to do the survey. It's nice to know that as the owner and an engineer he came at the site to do the job. He is very professional and knowledgeable. Prices are fair. You get what you pay for and to actually get an engineer to do the survey is phenomenal. This is not your ordinary survey company. I would highly recommend Caliland Engineering!

I sent Kevin a survey request through yelp and he responded promptly. He was knowledgeable and provided me with all the information requested. Will contact him again in the future if we decide to proceed with our project.

It's been over a week, and there's still no response with a quote or anything. Although I have not used their service, Yelp has it wrong about 45min response time. My review is based on my initial experience, or there lack of.

Just had the lot for my house surveyed by Caliland and I had a wonderful experience! Kevin was not only very helpful and full of knowledge he is a wonderful human being. Thanks Kevin A+ service! Looking forward to working with you on a topography survey and retaining wall design!

I first engaged Kevin @ Caliland Engineering two years ago when I was planning a master suite addition to my home. He was responsive, on time, professional, and fairly priced. I got all the information and documents I needed to move on with my project and left happy. Two years and multiple project delays later, we finally broke ground and started to build. Naturally, once molds for the foundation and retaining walls went up, a city inspector asked for additional survey's and markers on the various structural supports and retaining walls. (note: these were additional requests, unrelated to our first survey) THE PROJECT CAME TO A STOP, AGAIN!

I called up Kevin in a hurry and trying to get the issue taken care of. In less than 24 hours we exchanged multiple emails and I had a quote in-hand. All was right in the world. I'd recommend Caliland Engineering and will likely call them in the future if I need their services.

Been many months since I contacted them. Guess they don't need business. Not going to chase em around. Not impressed.

Don't be fooled by their response time. I submitted a quote request. Kevin responded quickly by asking for my address and phone number. Pretty much a week later and two follow-ups on my part, I've yet to hear from them again. I understand if you're too busy, but have the courtesy to let the person know.

Kevin and Caliland Engineering is an outstanding company. I needed to have a Title Survey done in a very short amount of time for my lender as I was buying an apartment building and Caliland Engineering was the only company that was able to work with my fast turn around time. Kevin was very professional and helpful through the whole process. Caliland has multiple teams of people to get the job done which is why they were able to do my survey and every other company was backed up 3-5 weeks.

I actually got referred to Caliland Engineering from another Survey company because they could not do it within my time frame and said the only company they would recommend was Caliland because they have seen their work and it is very thorough. Thank you again Kevin and Caliland for being so diligent with completing my Title Survey :

We needed our property surveyed and a friend recommended Jeff at CaliLand Engineering, Inc. From the beginning I could tell that he was knowledgeable about our area. The surveyors arrived, spent a whole day on the property, explained to me what they found from the top of the hill to the street. They arrived early in the day and stayed into the early evening. I would highly recommend them for any surveying job. Thank you Jeff.

We are in the middle of a big remodel of our house and at the last minute during one of our inspections the city inspector said he wouldn't let us move forward without a setback certification for our property lines. Everyone else we called gave us a timeframe from 4 wks +, we needed this asap since the foundation pour was already scheduled for a few days from when we called. Kevin was able to squeeze us in on Saturday (the day after we called!) since we explained we were on a time crunch.

Fast forward to today, the inspector came out and approved us for the next step - foundation pour! Kevin was very nice, professional, and got the job done quickly. I would highly recommend anyone needing a surveyor to give CaliLand a call. A big thank you to Kevin and his team!

Super expensive. I finally found someone else charging a fraction of the price. Seriously saved like 9,000 dollars.

We recently had a topography map and land survey map draw by Kevin and his team. They also provided a survey map in CAD format for our architect. Everyone we spoke with was highly professional, very informative and friendly. We couldn't be happier with the excellent and expeediant service that was provided and would highly recommend using this company for any of your survey needs.

Not ounce but twice I called this place and I kindly ask for an estimate of a boundary survey to determine my property lines. I figured they are probably very busy, so I called a month later.but nnnoooooo. Again they never got back at me the second time. So that's what I'm basing my review on. They never bothered to get in touch with me. That's no way to run a business.

I had called around to find not only a good price, but quality work and when it came time to survey our property, we were lucky enough to have found Kevin at Caliland Engineering who is located in our city. From the start, we spoke with a friendly young woman who was able to answer a few questions for us and take our information for a quote. We were emailed a quote within a day and when my husband and I agreed to go through with them I called to let them know. Kevin was awesome over the phone.

He was professional, energetic, knowledgeable, and assured me that the job would get done in a timely manner. Since we live so close to his office I decided to walk in and sign documents and take him a bottle of wine because he was so pleasant over the phone. If Kevin was awesome over the phone, he was even better in person! When I handed him the bottle of wine that we had bought for him, he handed me one in return!

Who does that? Kevin does! I can't stress how happy I am to know that there are businesses run by people like Kevin in the city that I grew up in and continue to live in. I've already told a neighbor and a friend about their services and I'll update my review when the job is finished- but for now, 5 stars! Call them. Tell them Lilly sent you! You won't regret it.

I have been attempting to obtain an estimate from this company for 2 months. I've sent them 3 emails and made 2 phone calls to no avail. I cannot comment on the quality of their work but if this is a preview of things to come I will not hire them. I suggest to hire a company that is responsive and professional.
