Progress was slow, emails / calls asking for status were ignored, and final approvals for the City never provided (I gave up and hired a different firm to finish the job). This team has real trouble keeping track of its projects. But oddest of all, when I picked up the plans a nervous office manager implied I didn't intend to pay my bill simply because I wanted a quick glance to review them for accuracy. Apparently she thought I would run out the door with the plans in my hand. Really? If this firm is worried about getting paid for slow work and poor communication, perhaps it would be smarter to ask new customers for a deposit upfront instead of insulting them.

Completely unprofessional and disorganized company. Save yourself the headache and use anyone…read moreelse! I have had countless surveys ordered in the past without a hitch... this office cannot get their act together to give anyone any information. They wont deal with anything over the phone. They just repeatedly ask for more money and go through countless emails with whatever disorganized woman works in the office (Im guessing "Kevin's" wife). Kevin tells you one thing and then nothing ever gets done because its pawned off onto the woman who answers emails and doesn't give any information or do what she says she's going to do. Such a headache and a waste of time.

Hiring this company was a disaster, and almost lost us the home we purchased! From the beginning,…read morewe had trouble. We hired them to survey the property on our home purchase and to mark the property lines. We had to call multiple times to get a confirmed date for the survey. They didn't show on the expected date, and communication was non-existent. The email address on their website was wrong, and messages left on their phones were never returned. They did eventually pick up the phone, and told us that they "don't know how to use the voicemail system so those messages will never get picked up". They didn't understand that we needed the survey completed by the date specified on the contract they thought it was only required by the closing date. We were very fortunate that the seller chose not to enforce that contract date or we would have lost the house. Once they finally did complete the survey and sent it to the title company, the title company said they needed another copy because it was neither signed nor stamped. That was a whole other difficulty to get!! Finally we closed on the house but it took another week plus of phone calls before they finally marked the property boundaries. Communication AND execution were horrible, we spent countless hours trying to reach them and to have them complete the survey. do not recommend using this company at all!

Because of a property line dispute with my neighbor, I hired G&B in early Nov 2020 to do a boundary…read moresurvey on my homestead lot. They came out Nov 24th and performed data collection, noting fences, gardens, etc. They left and I never heard from them. I called several times to no avail, but did finally get through and arranged for a pdf of the survey doc to be sent to me. To obtain the survey doc, I paid the invoice in full and I subsequently received a survey doc. The doc G&B sent was of my property, but it was riddled with errors and had the wrong address posted on it. I recontacted G&B and asked for a corrected/revised survey doc. In early Dec G&B sent me a revised survey doc, again it contained errors, and it noted that there had to be three points/pins set to complete the work. I called G&B several times over the next couple weeks to schedule the crew to visit to set those three points. I gave grace because of the pandemic and the holidays. Over that period of time, G&B rescheduled a couple of times and didn't show up a couple of times. Finally on Jan 4th the crew returned and set those three pins. I and my neighbor noted the locations and I informed G&B the locations didn't appear to be correct. My neighbor immediately hired another survey company and that company came out and determined the G&B survey was in fact defective and the three pins were placed in the wrong locations. I contacted G&B and told them of the findings and they were going to schedule for a resurvey. I had to keep contacting G&B over and over again to get a reply to the scheduling for the resurvey. They finally came out on January 18th to reshoot my property. I contacted G&B on Jan 20th to determine when I'd get the revised survey doc and was told it was being worked on and it would be forwarded to me that evening. When it didn't get received, I contacted G&B again on the 22nd and was told it should have been sent and they would look into it. I contacted G&B again on the 25th for a status and was told again that they would look into it. They called me back late that afternoon and told me it wouldn't be ready until the 29th or so. I told them that wasn't acceptable and described to them the problems and issues I've been experiencing with them and was told by them that they were all new personnel (only on the job for 3 day's) and didn't have any answers to when I'd get the survey doc's. I attempted to contact the PE (Lyndon Nance T.R.N 6206) that signed and sealed the first and revised doc, but he doesn't have any good contact info listed. I finally tracked down the owner of G&B (Mike Bravos) and he told me to text him the information I had to make my case with him, for him to continue. I complied with his request and I also sent Heidi an email with all my communications with G&B. I haven't heard anything from Mike Bravos or anyone else in G&B's employment, so this morning I sent Mike Bravos a text asking for a status. CRICKETS! I am now in a heated conflict with my neighbor over the G&B survey and the location of the pins they set. The conversation I had with a real estate lawyer said that it has become a boundary/property line conflict but in his review, the G&B survey is defective and the location of the pins, in his opinion, are not properly located. He said I could go to litigation with my neighbor but it appears to him, with the info I sent to him, I'd lose. He suggested I keep trying to get G&B to fulfill their obligation or sue them. I'm trying to avoid litigation but, for some unknown reason, it appears G&B wants me to go down that path. I am so regretting that I ever hired G&B. Be advised, be careful and be prepared to be let down if you choose to use this outfit.
