Randy Phillips, PLS

A career built in the field

Randy began surveying when he was 14 years old. At the start of his career, he surveyed for Jordan Jones & Goulding in Atlanta, GA, for 10 years. His next employer was Howell Engineering in Birmingham, AL, for 6 years. He kept gaining experience at Robinson Paving in Columbus, GA (5 years), ARD Contracting in Birmingham, AL (3 years) and Arrington Engineering & Surveying in Hoover, AL (6 years).

That mix matters: engineering firms taught him design surveys and plats, paving and contracting companies taught him construction staking where every tenth of a foot costs money. In 2009 Randy took the Professional Land Surveyors exam. Upon passing the rigorous test, along with his years of experience in the field, he became a licensed Professional Land Surveyor (PLS). In 2010 he established Alabama Surveying and Mapping, Inc. in Clanton.

Today the firm works for homeowners, builders, developers, engineers, architects, lenders and public agencies – from a single lot in Chilton County to apartment sites in Georgia and national forest corners in Perry County.

Randy was quick and efficient. Even when he had to make a 2nd trip (becaue I didn't communicate correctly, lol) he did so. He gave me a fair price and they allowed me to communicate through text ..which I preferred. I highly recommend them!

Randy with Alabama Surveying and Mapping was great to work with! As a Realtor I deal with surveys and surveyors all the time and I was impressed with how responsive he was to all the questions we had. We needed a unique property surveyed and split into two parcels and he did a great job very quickly, when no one else could, and got it done exactly how my client wanted! He's got our business and you should give him…

Great experience. I deal with residential surveyors on a regular basis, but when I purchased a tract of land, Randy was recommended by the bank, and turned out to be very responsive, was able to do the job on a very tight schedule, and for a very reasonable price. I highly recommend him for any surveying you need.
