I had a bad experience with him. He knew what he was doing, but he had surveyed a property for me to develop. At the final meeting, when I was just supposed to pick up the drawings and everything was supposed to be done, he gave me information that changed me to have to redo the whole plan. Then he charged me completely full price for doing it all over again. I paid him because things were so busy at that time and it was going to take me longer to go and find somebody else; so I had to pay him twice. He was very arrogant and didn't seem to have any sense of responsibility."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ca/lakeside/elliott-may-surveying-reviews-7652743.htm"},"position":9},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Architectural Environments","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"CA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Stephen G."},"reviewBody":"The owner of a landscape construction firm referred me to Kirk to develop a comprehensive landscape design for the front and back yards of my house, which sits on a tract lot in a gated community. Kirk contacted me and visited my house for an initial consultation soon after the referral. On the initial consultation Kirk surveyed our yard and provided us with some high-level concepts for the new landscape. He also queried us about our "ballpark" range of desired cost for the landscape construction and agreed to develop a design that would fall within the ballpark. At the initial consultation we decided to ask Kirk to develop a conceputal design for a new landscape/hardscape. Kirk developed the concept design in about 10 days and met at our home to present the concept design, including providing a large-scale/plotter color print of the design. Kirk spent over an hour briefing us on the concept design, and accepted some minor changes to the design based on our feedback. At that time he collected 2/3 of his total fee.
Based on our approval of the concept design, Kirk went on to develop the detailed hardscape design, and drainage and lighting plans for the property. Those documents are necessary for submittal to most HOAs and also to provide competing construction contractors with sufficient detail to formulate bids. Kirk provided us with the detailed designs about 10 days after we approved the concept design. He again met at our home and spent extensive time walking my wife and I through the detail designs, which included color photos of the proposed plants in the hardscape, as well as extensive details of water drainage and lighting on the property. Kirk delivered large-scale/plotter prints of the detailed designs and followed-up with .pdf softcopies of the documents after the meeting. At that time he collected the remaining 1/3 of his total fee.
Overall, working with Kirk was a pleasant experience and he provided us with an excellent design for what will be our new yard. His fees are fair and he works with a couple of landscape construction firms who rebate a portion of the design fees if you choose them as the construction contractor. We strongly recommend Kirk to Angie's List members looking for a landscape designer."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ca/temecula/architectural-environments-reviews-2301800.htm"},"position":10}]}

I contacted several fencing companies for quotes, and Frontier was the only one who actually came out to survey the site and see what it was I needed done - others gave an estimate on the phone or, in the case of one, surveyed my fence line with Google Maps (their quote was twice Frontier's...

We contacted 3 moving companies for our move from the Denver-metro area to San Diego County. We especially liked the style of John Golden, the Wheaton estimator who came to our house. We also liked that Wheaton offered a “guaranteed no more than” estimate. On the day of the move, the...

FAQs for land surveying projects in Oceanside, CA
Land surveying can help give clear guidance on your property boundaries for numerous situations. And in some cases, having your land surveyed is a requirement. Some common reasons to have your land surveyed include:
Planning for construction projects, like building a fence
Locating utilities, such as plumbing fixtures
Settling property line disputes
Creating subdivisions
Meeting mortgage requirements
Selling your property
Land surveying costs about $530 for the average homeowner. However, your total cost could range anywhere from $200 to $1,000 or more. Factors like the size of your property play a significant role in what you pay, but other things like the survey type and the time of year can also impact the final cost.
For example, if you’re looking for a simple boundary survey, you can expect to pay between $100 and $600. However, if you want a more in-depth survey that depicts the elevations of your hills and trees, you can expect to pay between $500 and $1,200 for a topographic survey.
A few different types of land surveys can help determine certain features and boundaries of your property. These include:
Boundary surveys describe the actual borders of a property. These are generally required when trying to get construction permits issued.
Location surveys provide much of the same information as a boundary survey but also include in-depth information about any improvements made to your property.
Mortgage location surveys are usually required by lenders and title companies before financing or offering an insurance policy.
Site-planning surveys are done before applying for building permits and can be issued before any major home improvements.
Topographic surveys provide a formal map of land elevations. It can also describe the location and size of natural features and any land improvements.
Land survey reports provide a lot of helpful information about your property and land. The exact information provided depends on the type of survey you have done, but common information that they can provide includes:
Location of utility fixtures
Clear boundaries and dimensions of your property
General topography
Land elevation information
Confirmation of easements or encroachments
Land surveys don’t technically expire. They do serve as a point of reference and a snapshot of your property, though, so as soon as you make changes to your property (and even if your neighbor makes certain changes to theirs), your existing land survey becomes inaccurate, and a new one must be done. Even if you don’t make any changes to your property, many states only guarantee the accuracy of a land survey for five to ten years.
