Est. 1991 | Learning from the past, Building the Future
Charles J. Bonadiman, the founder and president of Bonadiman Pacific Surveying, comes from a family of civil engineers and land surveyors who have been working in southern California for over 80 years.
After deciding that there were certain needs that he could best service on his own, our founder began Bonadiman Pacific Surveying, Inc. and has been expanding the business and its services ever since. As demand for story poles increased in southern California, Charles was among the first to address this growing field. We offer all story pole services through in-house employees thereby eliminating scheduling headaches other companies may face when they hire external contractors. Our internal promotion system also ensures a consistent standard of excellence in every aspect of our work.
We are proud of our history, hopeful in our future growth, and looking forward to helping our clients achieve their goals.

California Story Poles
The Role of Land Surveyors in Story Pole Installations
There’s a reason that almost all story pole installations require a certification from a land surveyor, and that is because it is the sole domain of a surveyor to establish heights and locations. General Contractors, in general, can neither solicit nor offer Land Surveying services, certification letters or surveying layout and staking. Those that do are in violation of the law and the following statutes.
(PROFESSIONAL LAND SURVEYORS’ ACT (Business and Professions Code §§ 8700 – 8805):
8726. Land surveying defined (a) A person, including any person employed by the state or by a city, county, or city and county within the state, practices land surveying within the meaning of this chapter who, either in a public or private capacity, does or offers to do any one or more of the following:
(1) Locates, relocates, establishes, reestablishes, or retraces the alignment or elevation for any of the fixed works embraced within the practice of civil engineering, as described in Section 6731.
(2) Determines the configuration or contour of the earth’s surface, or the position of fixed objects above, on, or below the surface of the earth by applying the principles of mathematics or photogrammetry.
(7) Determines the information shown or to be shown on any map or document prepared or furnished in connection with any one or more of the functions described in paragraphs (1) through (6), inclusive.
(8) Indicates, in any capacity or in any manner, by the use of the title “land surveyor” or by any other title or by any other representation that they practice or offer to practice land surveying in any of its branches.
(9) Procures or offers to procure land surveying work for themselves or others.
(10) Manages, or conducts as manager, proprietor, or agent, any place of business from which land surveying work is solicited, performed or practiced.
(11) Coordinates the work of professional, technical, or special consultants in connection with the activities authorized by this chapter.
8751. Representing self as licensed No person shall represent himself or herself as, or use the title of, or any abbreviation or combination of the words in the title of, professional land surveyor, licensed land surveyor, land surveyor, land survey engineer, survey engineer, geodetic engineer, geomatics engineer, or geometronic engineer unless he or she is the holder of a valid, unsuspended, and unrevoked license.
