"errible service from Hoerr Landscaping. I ordered 15 tonnes of white rock from Hoerr Landscaping in Peoria. I had done the same in 2017, when the dump truck driver evenly dumped the gravel along the entire driveway. I expected the same, or at least similar. If not even spread, then at least along the entire driveway. Unfortunately, Hoerr company sent a driver with limited skills who dumped the entire load in middle of the driveway. On calling Hoerr, they told me that their service is to deliver, not spread it. So it is not their problem. The driver did not even ask us where to dump. By the time I asked my wife to reach out and stop his dumping, he had finished it and left. Now my driveway is blocked with mountains of gravel. I am searching for landscaper with skid steer rake. One estimate I got from a landscaper is $750.00"

Land Surveying questions, answered by experts

Professionals who complete perc tests can usually do them in a single day. Including excavating to expose the test site, filling the hole with water, and monitoring it while it drains, you can expect the test to take between four and eight hours total. It’s possible that you’ll get the results the same day, but some companies may take a few days to get official results.

You will find a collection of licensed land surveyors in your area. Your real estate agent or construction manager may also be able to recommend a trusted professional. When speaking with prospective pros in your area, ask the land surveyor if they are licensed in the state, have liability insurance, and can quote you a fee before starting.

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.

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. 

ALTA/ACSM surveys are the most comprehensive type of land survey and, as such, tend to be the most expensive. These surveys have standardized guidelines and reports and are used in many kinds of real estate transactions to ensure consistent and accurate information is available for properties.
