Licensed in both IL and WI, we perform land surveying services from solar farms to real estate closings to fence installations or landscaping work. The company began in 2015, under the experienced direction of James Shannon. James has been land surveying since 1988, and has done just about everything from large scale commercial and residential construction to small lot surveys for real estate closings. Compass Alternatives is not only family owned, but most of the past and present employees have been or currently are family as well. Currently, our main team is James and his sons, along with his nephew. Strong family values and good work ethics are some of the core ideals that drive the folks working at Compass Alternatives.
