"The company has a small parking lot, which made it particularly easy to drop off and pick up the lamps.
I took the lamps in, they gave me a verbal estimate. Once I agreed to the estimate, they gave me a written one and told me I could wait as it wouldn't take long (I had an appointment, so I said I would come back in about 2 hours).
When I arrived to pick up the lamps they were ready to go and at the quoted price."

"Jonathan was very professional And knowledgeable and did a thorough job closing pool and explaining the process. Due to being short staffed the job took longer than I expected. He had to come back the next day to complete as he arrived late for our scheduled appointment, probably due to incident with his employee earlier that day.A phone call alerting to the tardiness would have been appreciated.Overall very satisfied with Service performed and would recommend using Co."

Pool Construction and Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Grading complexity, debris removal volume, equipment, labor, and permits determine expense levels.

Land surveys are worth it in several scenarios including selling your home, building an addition, constructing a fence, or making major changes to your landscape. A professional land survey can help you avoid legal issues with your neighbors and confirm the value of your property. In many cases, you may be required to order a land survey to receive a construction permit or mortgage loan.

Construction typically takes 3-6 months, including site preparation and assembly.

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time.
