While all projects are unique, it is our understanding of local, state, and federal regulations and guidelines which allow us to produce results tailored for our clients needs. Since the company was founded in 1955, it has grown not only in personnel but also in the services it offers. The growth that the company has experienced over the years has always been controlled so as not to lose the reputation that Arthur Howland worked so hard to develop. The tradition and goal of providing our clients with cost effective, high quality, and accurate civil engineering and land surveying services is still alive more than ever under the leadership of the company’s new president Paul Szymanski who worked under Arthur Howland for a number of years before taking over the reigns in 2005. It is Paul Szymanski’s positive “Can Do” attitude that has instilled the civil engineering and land surveying staff of Arthur H. Howland & Associates to always go above and beyond for the client to earn the company praise and notoriety among clients, town staff, regulating agencies, and other land use professionals. We encourage you to give us an opportunity to work on your next land use project and look forward to working with you to meet all of your civil engineering and land surveying needs!

"Telephone wasn't answered, during their posted business hours. No voice mail. Emails not returned, either. Town has no survey on file, after almost 300 years. Town required one to determine property lines before I can build or install a shed! President is on the Town Council. Definitely not happy. Still need a survey!"

"Disappointing result. Survey showed what I feared. Surrounding developers had bought what was originally on this property, then took more than what my deed shows. Last surveyor to the party loses! Likely a legal issue now, since my driveway, parking area and much of my back yard doesn't even belong to me, according to this and previously filed surveys by surrounding developers. My only issue with my surveyor was less communication than promised or delivered. Pleasantly surprised to learn he did file the survey with the town as promised. Would use him again."

Land Surveying questions, answered by experts

There are a couple of ways you can determine the depth of your well. One method is to use a device called a well sounder. This tool has a long measuring tape containing a sensor to alert you once the end reaches the water. 

Or you can DIY it by using a long tape measure with a half-filled bottle of water attached to it. Lower the tape measure into your well. Once you feel tension on the tape, you’ll know the bottle has reached your static water level. This will give you an approximate idea of your well’s depth.

Yes, they assess topography and potential risks related to flooding.

If you or your mortgage lender think your land survey needs to be more accurate, double-check the survey report and get at least a second opinion from the original surveyor and an inspector, if possible. Although it’s unlikely, even reputable surveying companies can make mistakes. An inaccurate survey can cause problems down the road in the case of any property line disputes, so it’s best to resolve any inaccuracies as quickly as possible.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

You should always calculate real estate development costs on a case-by-case basis, so there’s no specific formula to estimate your total. You should speak with a local construction manager to see what you’ll need to do in terms of clearing and leveling the land, connecting utilities, and pulling permits for construction. A professional will be able to get you an accurate estimate for land development.
