Naming your land surveying business is a big deal. You want the business name to sell your services and build trust with your clients before you even meet them and before they even know what you do.
Below are +125 good ideas that you could name your surveying business, or will inspire your to make one up that suits your situation.
What Should Be Included in A Land Surveying Business Name?
To make it as easy as possible for your potential client to understand what services you offer there are some words that a surveying company must include in their name. These are:
- Survey,
- Surveying, or
- Surveyors.
Including one of these words in your company name will make it clear to your potential client what service you provide. If you want you can also prefix the above with “land” or “aerial”, “marine” or whatever makes the most sense to make it even clearer.
How to Make Your Land Surveying Business Name Catchy and Memorable
Two things you can do to increase the chances that someone will remember your name and look you up when they need a surveyor is to make your business name catchy and memorable. Two ways you can do this are:
- Using alliteration, or
- Having a short unique name.
Alliteration is when the first letter of a series of words all start with the same letter. An example of a land surveying business name using alliteration is:
- Sams Surveying Services
- Special Surveyors
- Spectrum Surveyors
- Lighting Land Surveys
In the above examples either all of the words or most of the words all start with the same letter. This makes it much easier for people to remember your name.
Having a short name is also important so that it is memorable. If it’s too lengthy and hard to pronounce, your ideal client will be less likely to remember it.
5 Different Ways To Name Your Land Surveying Business
Below are 5 different sets of examples for how you could name your company:
1. Use Your Own Name in Your Land Surveying Business Name

- Joe Citizen Land Surveying (using the full name of the founder as the brand of the company.
- JC Land Surveyors (the first and last name initials of the founder, Joe Citizen)
- JC & co Land Surveyors (initials of the founder and additional partners shown by the “& co”)

These search queries match closely with the company name, and you will be shown on the front page the search engine results page more and in the map pack).
