About Nick Smith
A highly motivated construction project manager and engineering surveyor with over 47 years of experience in the industry.

I started my own company in 1989 specialising in engineering for civil engineering and ground works, but providing all types of engineering and Topographical survey work. My company is still providing high quality survey work and site dimensional control, using cutting edges equipment like laser scanning and GPS. I continue to support many projects with construction management from first dig to completion.
