• Site Surveying: If a surveyor does not mark out your site, construction cannot begin. A survey needs to be done to determine the correct site and line where the project should be built. A survey also enables the contractors to verify the appropriate horizontal and vertical location of the proposed structure.

​

• Soil Testing: is one of the most critical steps in the construction site development process. It involves the assessment of the composition and the condition of the soil on site. The test is done to evaluate the soil’s structural integrity and determine whether it can hold the weight of the proposed building, its water drainage capability, and how well it can withstand harsh climatic conditions in the future. Soil testing is a legal and inescapable step in site development.

​

• Site Clearing: Before construction begins, the ground needs to be clear and completely leveled. This means clearing any trees that may be on it and any underground utilities that may hinder the construction process. Sometimes, the site may even have buildings in good condition. These need to be demolished and cleared from the site.
