"I hired Standard Land Surveying Co. to determine our property line because my new neighbors were installing a fence between our houses and I wanted to be sure they were installing it on their property. I contacted them and spoke to Carlos who explained what they will do to determine our property line and after they were finished they explained the findings and showed me the markers that shows my property line. I was very happy with Standard Land Surveying Co. and I am glad I chose them for this project."

"Long story short: Be careful with this company. They provide the services that you didn't ask for and charge the work that they didn't do. I call this company for applying a retaining wall permit. Kevin answered the phone, and I explained him I am going to build a retaining wall in my yard. He said ok. Then he sent me a contract for survey. I didn't look it carefully, then I signed and sent it to them. It is $2982. He sent his daughter here. Even though I explained what I need to do in my yard when they were doing the survey, they still did the survey. Kevin said no matter what, you will need this survey for your land in the future. Okay, I explained what I need to do again, then he charged me $2000 extra. After the first time plan review from the city, it was failed. I talked to Kevin, and he said he knows what to do. He charged me $900 for the soil pressure, I am not sure they did it or not. And he want to charge me $1550 for the quantity of the earth calculation, but I figured it out by myself. Or I will throw $1550 away. He sent me the plan and I submitted to the city again. I also let him know what the city want to correct and show on the plan. You already knew, it failed again! I don't have the patient or money for another failed plan. I already spent $5882 in total, but I didn't even get what I asked for. I will do the small claim and go with other company. In the end: Save your money and choose some other company."

Land Surveying questions, answered by experts

To hire a land surveyor, you need to start by searching online for reputable professionals in your area. Here are a few steps to take when making a shortlist:

  • Browse land surveyor service website

  • Check credentials

  • Read customer reviews

  • Find their contact information

  • Call or email to inquire about more information

  • Ask how far they travel, if you’re some distance away

  • Find out how they charge for their services

  • Ask about schedule and turnaround times

  • Repeat these steps for one to two other services and compare pricing

Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn’t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.

Professional well contractors may use electromagnetic mapping to look for places with a high likelihood of water. Water access can vary significantly, even on the same property, so it can be difficult to know where to drill if you don’t have specialized tools to look for water.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

Surveys completed by licensed surveyors can be recorded with a local surveying records office, and in most cases, they will be. Filing survey reports categorize them as legal documents, and they can be used whenever legal documentation of your property’s boundaries is needed. While you’re not required to file survey documents, it’s a good idea to do so.
