Case file: recovering the web presence of Efird Surveying Group

Think of this as a recovery report for a land surveying and mapping firm in DeLand, written by the team that recovers data for Computer Outlet customers.

It documents the starting point found in the archive and the information Efird Surveying Group now presents through a services site paired with a custom job, scheduling and billing system that replaced spreadsheet tracking.

Recovered snapshot: efirdsurveying.com before the rebuild

The snapshot we recovered from the Internet Archive for Efird Surveying Group is stamped March 12, 2026.

In that recovered copy (page title “Efird Surveying Group | Surveying & Mapping Services”) the homepage was an orange-and-green layout with a Florida map graphic, a bulleted list of survey services and phone numbers in the header.

Restored and rebuilt: Efird Surveying Group today

What the client has now is a services site paired with a custom job, scheduling and billing system that replaced spreadsheet tracking.

The current Efird Surveying Group homepage is captured in the screenshot below.

Custom software we built: the Efird records system

For this case file the bigger recovery was the job history itself: Efird's job records moved out of a long-running Excel workbook into a purpose-built database application.

Every record shown in these captures is a placeholder; real survey files and client details stay private inside the system.
