We Communicate

We pride ourselves on standard business courtesy. We answer the phone when you call, and return your calls by the end of business day, or first thing in the morning, whether we are a fit for your needs or not.

After award of a project, we complete a high level plan custom to your project and socialize with you to ensure it meets your timing and transaction deadlines.

We provide frequent updates to the plan during the course of the project, and offer mitigation options when the unexpected happens, to keep the original commitment.

If you are calling us to enquire about when you will receive your project, we are not doing our job properly.

Professionalism Guaranteed

The Managing Director of our firm brings to Northwest Colorado a novel industry experience that each client benefits from going forward; C-Suite Presence and a Strategy-to-Delivery ethos for each deliverable.

We combine the legacy on-site intellectual capital of D&D's ~5,000 clients and ~13,000 projects with the high expectation of service that sophisticated buyers, sellers and developers of high end real estate are used to in other markets.

The timely delivery of an accurate survey should not be a source of stress for your contemplated transaction.

Investment and Productivity

In 2022, we have significantly invested in new personnel, state-of-the-art equipment and technology to ensure an accurate, reliable, and time competitive product.

The Science of Geomatics and Geodesy has evolved significantly with the advent of new Global Navigation Satellite System Constellations, WiFi speeds, Computing Power, CAD / Surveying Software and Measurement hardware Technology. What changed the surveying industry forever in the 1990s/2000s has now happened again in the late 2015-2020s.

D&D has invested in this latest technology, IT and equipment upgrades in 2022&2023. What does this mean for you, the buyer of Surveying Services?
