"They arranged for a survey to be done in a short period of time. We received the plat very promptly after the survey was completed. The reason for requesting services was that we needed a survey for a building permit issued by Will County. As of this time, we are still waiting to receive confirmation from Will County that the plat is acceptable, but I see no reason why it should not be accepted."

Land Surveying questions, answered by experts

In Chicago, land surveying contractors typically specialize in services such as boundary surveys, property surveys, ALTA/NSPS land title surveys for commercial properties, topographic surveys for site planning, and construction staking. Some firms focus on urban infill or historic neighborhoods, offering expertise in navigating Chicago’s unique lot layouts and zoning codes. Always select a surveying contractor familiar with local permitting and dense city infrastructure.

Helpful?

Coordinating land surveying with upgrades like new fencing, landscaping, or driveway installation in Chicago can streamline your project and reduce disruptions. By aligning your property survey with permit applications or site plans, you minimize the risk of rework and ensure all improvements meet local zoning requirements. Planning projects together also helps you take advantage of contractors’ availability during Chicago’s optimal building seasons.

Helpful?

In Chicago, a standard residential property survey usually takes between one and three weeks, while commercial or ALTA surveys may extend up to six weeks. Factors like winter weather, access to older city lots, and the need for historical research can impact timelines. Scheduling your land surveying project during spring or fall can help avoid delays common in Chicago’s harsh winters and busy summer construction season.

Helpful?

Completing land surveying in Chicago offers immediate benefits like clearly defined property boundaries, which is crucial in the city’s tightly packed neighborhoods. In the long term, a professional property survey safeguards your investment, helps prevent boundary disputes, and supports compliance with local zoning and floodplain regulations—especially important for properties near Lake Michigan or the Chicago River, where development and environmental factors often intersect.

Helpful?

In Chicago, homeowners often overlook the need to check for utility easements or fail to communicate with neighbors about shared boundaries. Skipping a site plan review or not marking existing survey points can create future headaches. Rushing the process or choosing a surveying contractor without local experience may lead to compliance issues, especially in areas with complex zoning or floodplain considerations. Always keep survey documents accessible for future reference.
