About

What is Land Surveying?

Land surveying is the science of measuring and mapping the physical features of a property, including boundary lines, elevations, structures, easements, and natural features. A licensed land surveyor researches deed records, locates property corners in the field, and produces certified drawings that define exactly what you own and where everything sits on it.

In {{STATE}}, land surveyors are licensed professionals who must meet strict education, experience, and examination requirements. Every survey they produce is signed, sealed, and certified - making it legally acceptable for real estate transactions, building permits, property disputes, and lender requirements in {{COUNTY}} County.

A land survey is the only legally recognized way to confirm the exact boundaries and features of your property. Whether you are buying, building, fencing, or resolving a dispute, it all starts with a survey.

Why You Need One

Why You Need a Land Survey in {{CITY}}?

A land survey answers critical questions about your property boundaries, easements, and structures. If any of these situations apply to you, a licensed {{STATE}} surveyor can help.

Buying or Selling Property

A land survey confirms the exact property lines, corner monuments, and structures before a real estate transaction - protecting both buyer and seller from future boundary disputes, title issues, and closing delays in {{COUNTY}} County.

Building a Fence

A boundary survey marks your exact property lines so your fence goes in the right place - not encroaching on your neighbor's land and not leaving unused space on your side. Most municipalities require a survey before issuing a fence permit.

Building a House or Addition

A survey ensures your new house or addition stays on the lot, within setback lines, and does not encroach on easements or neighboring property in {{COUNTY}} County. Many building permits require a survey showing structures relative to the property boundaries.

Encroachments

A survey reveals whether a neighbor's driveway, fence, or structure crosses your property line - or whether your structures cross theirs. The certified survey plat provides legal documentation to resolve encroachment disputes.

Flood Zone Determination

A land surveyor can determine if your property is in a FEMA flood hazard zone and complete an elevation certificate for flood insurance rating. An EC can lower your NFIP premium or support a LOMA to remove the flood insurance requirement.

Subdividing Property

A boundary survey is the first step in subdividing your property - whether dividing land among family members or creating new buildable lots. The survey establishes existing boundary lines so the subdivision plat can be recorded with {{COUNTY}} County.

Cost

How Much Does Land Surveying Cost in {{CITY}}?

Land surveying costs in {{CITY}} vary based on the type of survey, property size, terrain, vegetation, and the complexity of the deed history. A simple residential lot survey costs less than a topographic survey or an ALTA survey because the scope of work is smaller and less research is required.

Factors that affect the cost include property size and shape, number of property corners, amount of tree cover, whether the property is in a recorded subdivision or a metes and bounds parcel, and the type of survey required. Because of these factors, land surveys are not priced simply by the acre. A small lot with missing corners or heavy tree cover can take more work than a larger parcel with clear records and recovered monuments. Rush service is available for permit deadlines and closing schedules.

FAQs

Land Surveying FAQs in {{CITY}}

Land surveying is the professional measurement, analysis, and mapping of property and site conditions. Depending on the project, it can involve determining property boundaries, locating monuments, mapping topography, measuring existing improvements, establishing construction control, preparing survey drawings, and documenting other natural or man-made features. Each state defines the regulated practice in its own law, but the work generally involves determining and displaying facts such as a property's size, shape, topography, elevations, and legal or geodetic location.

Land survey cost depends primarily on the type and scope of survey, property size and shape, terrain and vegetation, number of corners or features, record research, site access, and required deliverables. A simple residential boundary survey is usually a smaller scope than an ALTA or detailed topographic survey. Because there is no single "land survey" product, an accurate price requires knowing what the project actually needs.

We respond to survey inquiries within 2-3 business days. Most residential surveys are completed in about two to three weeks from authorization, while a complex ALTA or topographic project requiring additional research and fieldwork can take longer. Timing depends on survey type, property size, records, site conditions, fieldwork, drafting, and our current schedule.

Send us the property address or parcel ID, a copy of your deed, and any existing survey or recorded plat you have. If a title company or lender is involved, include the title commitment. Tell us the purpose of the survey, such as a purchase, a fence, a building permit, or a refinance, and any deadline, such as a closing or permit date. These details let us scope the survey and give you an accurate quote. If you do not have every document, our surveyors research the public records as part of the survey. You can send the details through our contact page.

Start with the closing or title documents from when you bought the property, since a survey is often included. The title company that handled your closing may also have a copy on file. If your property is in a recorded subdivision, the plat is a public record on file with the {{COUNTY}} County office that records deeds and plats. If you know which surveyor prepared an earlier survey, that surveyor may be able to provide a copy. An older survey is useful background, but it may not show current improvements or meet the requirements for a new purchase, permit, or fence.

A lot survey is a type of boundary survey performed on a platted lot within a recorded subdivision. A broader boundary survey can also apply to acreage, metes-and-bounds parcels, and other property descriptions. The terms should be matched to the actual legal description and intended use of the survey.

A boundary survey is the appropriate way to establish where a fence can be placed relative to the legal property boundary. It identifies the surveyed boundary evidence and can show the line on a certified survey drawing. Relying only on a tax map, online parcel map, old fence, or visual estimate can lead to an incorrect assumption about the property line.

A survey can help a buyer understand the location of property boundaries and identify visible encroachments or other issues before closing. Whether a survey is required depends on the lender, title company, purchase contract, local rules, and other circumstances. Buyers should ask the transaction team what survey, if any, is required for the closing.

Common survey types include boundary surveys, ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys, lot or closing surveys, fence surveys, topographic surveys, Elevation Certificates, construction staking, as-built surveys, drone LiDAR mapping, and other specialized surveying services. The appropriate type depends on the property's characteristics and what the survey is intended to accomplish.

A boundary-focused survey can provide professional evidence concerning property corners, boundary lines, and relevant physical improvements. That information can be useful when property owners, attorneys, mediators, or other parties are evaluating a dispute. The surveyor supplies the professional surveying information; legal rights and remedies are matters for the appropriate legal process.

A certified survey plat is a survey drawing that has been prepared and certified by the responsible licensed surveyor in accordance with the applicable requirements and scope. Depending on the survey type, it can show boundaries, monuments, bearings and distances, improvements, easements, encroachments, elevations, and other requested information. The exact contents depend on the survey being performed.

Yes. Our land surveying work is performed by, or under the responsible charge of, a land surveyor licensed in {{STATE}}. State law, including in {{STATE}}, regulates the profession of land surveying through licensing requirements and practice standards intended to promote competence, accuracy, completeness, and quality.
