About Us

Who We Are

Optical Civil Engineering was founded in Devon in 2014 with a simple aim – to make surveying precise, reliable, and easy to work with. From small extensions to large commercial builds, we deliver accurate information that contractors, engineers, and architects can trust.

We’re a small, dedicated team that values clarity, communication, and consistency. Our work is built on long-term relationships with clients who appreciate getting it right the first time.

Our Approach

We believe good data builds good projects – that’s why we’re committed to using the latest technology and methods to produce precise surveys. We work closely with designers and site teams to make sure our surveys and setting out align perfectly with your needs, no grey areas, no guesswork.

• Experience where it counts – over a decade delivering accurate surveys and setting out across Devon and Cornwall.
  
• Fast turnaround -we know deadlines matter; our workflow is built around efficiency without cutting corners.
  
• Consistent quality -the same attention to detail, whether it’s a single house plot or a multi-phase development.
  
• Personal contact – you’ll always deal directly with a surveyor, not an office administrator.
