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

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

Pros will assess your soil type, property geography, and rain patterns for optimal slope.

This is fairly rare, but sometimes the local government or a group like a historical society will label a tree as a landmark, or historical item. These designations almost always come with a small, on-site plaque for identification, but you should also be able to look up protected trees in your area on a city website or similar list. If the tree in question is a landmark, call your local government and ask how to proceed before making any plans.

Several government-backed lending programs can help first-time home buyers purchase a home with little money down. FHA, USDA, and VA loans are options for qualifying borrowers, though many conventional mortgage lenders will lower down payment rates to as low as 3 percent.

It is almost always necessary to hire a land surveyor near you to ensure your fence sits on the right side of the property line. Mistaking the shape of your property can lead to fines and costly changes if you have to move or adjust the privacy fence—not to mention some surly looks from your neighbor. We recommend jumpstarting your fence planning in the spring to ensure there is plenty of time to map out your plan before construction season.
