FEMA-Compliant Elevation Certificates

If your property is in or near a flood zone, you may be required to carry flood insurance — and to do that, you need an elevation certificate. Southwest Survey provides FEMA-compliant elevation certificates for new construction, existing buildings, and properties flagged by lenders for flood zone review. Our licensed surveyors complete each certificate with the precision and documentation your insurance carrier and lender require.
