We have high praise for Gigi, Debbie and others at SE Minor. We are fortunate whenever we have come across the right people and company to accomplish something needed for our home. A talented and experienced professional in Greenwich construction and home building for decades recommended we give SE Minor a call to survey our property. From the moment we began talking with Gigi and Debbie, we knew we were headed in the right direction.

We understood the process takes time and we appreciate the approach and execution needed to do it well. We are very glad we hired them and wound up with an excellent Topo Survey. We highly recommend them.

I've been dealing with SE Minor & Co., which is responsible for several land surveys in my almost 4 acres properties in backcountry Greenwich-CT, for more than one decade. Throughout all this time, SE Minor & Co., has been nothing truly great: they are profissional, reliable, and highly efficient. Besides, not only is the SE Minor staff courteous but also very easy to deal with - a rare trait in most companies in Greenwich, CT. I highly recommend SE Minor & Co. for all of those looking for the types of service they provide.
