BC LAND SURVEYING


Built by People Who Know What's at Stake

BC Land Surveying was started by two brothers, Thomas and William Billeter, who spent years working in the civil engineering field on land development and construction projects throughout Sonoma County. As professionals who relied on survey data for every critical project, they understood exactly what accurate, dependable surveying made possible. Starting a firm of their own, alongside other experienced professionals, was the natural next step. 



That background is what BC Land Surveying is built on. Our team includes licensed Professional Land Surveyors and field professionals with more than 80 years of combined experience working across Sonoma, Marin, and Napa Counties. We know the terrain, the local agencies, and what it takes to produce deliverables that actually move a project forward. When you hire us, you're working with people who understand this process from every side and built their practice around doing it right.

SERVICE AREA


Serving Sonoma County & Northern California

BC Land Surveying is headquartered in Santa Rosa and serves clients throughout Sonoma County, including Santa Rosa, Petaluma, Healdsburg, Sebastopol, Windsor, Rohnert Park, Cloverdale, and Cotati. We also work across Marin County and Napa County for projects that extend beyond county lines. 



Sonoma County's mix of urban corridors, rural parcels, agricultural land, and coastal terrain creates surveying challenges that require genuine local knowledge. Our team works regularly with the Sonoma County Permit and Resource Management Department, local municipalities, and title companies throughout the region. That familiarity speeds up the process and keeps projects moving. If your project is somewhere in Northern California and you're not sure if we cover it, reach out and we'll give you a straight answer. 


MEET THE TEAM


The People Behind the Precision

Thomas and William Billeter founded BC Land Surveying to bring surveying in-house and integrate it directly into their engineering and development work. They built the firm around what they valued most in a surveying partner: precision, responsiveness, and genuine problem-solving capability. 



Our team includes licensed Professional Land Surveyors and experienced field professionals with more than 80 years of combined experience across Sonoma, Marin, and Napa Counties. We take on work we can do well and stand behind every deliverable we produce. Small enough to stay accountable, experienced enough to handle whatever your project demands.

Results You Can Build On

BC Land Surveying competes on quality, not price. Our clients are developers, real estate professionals, engineers, and property owners who value precision and want a surveying partner who moves at the pace their project demands. We built this firm specifically for them. 



Every project we take on is handled by a licensed team that owns the work from first contact through final delivery. We communicate clearly, solve problems as they come up, and produce documentation that holds up, in the field, in the permitting office, and if it comes to it, in a legal proceeding. If that standard matters to you, tell us about your project.
