"I had used Leisure Lawn in the past for approximately 10 years or more and had to stop due to my finances. My lawn started looking really bad and I called them to start up service again. I was thrilled up until now. I had a burned spot in my lawn, the large area does not have the best soil, but green grass was growing there previously. I called to ask for someone to come out to check on it. The gentleman came (unannounced,) I was told it was because of my poor soil conditions. I called back a few days later to talk about this again as other spots have appeared. I was told the same thing. These other spots are in the middle of my healthy lawn that has great soil. I was told to look around at my neighbors lawns, they are the same!! (are you kidding me?) Well, they are not the same and the only difference are the chemicals used on my lawn!! He said the rain this weekend will fix it. If it needs “fixed” then there is something wrong!! I asked for something to be done and he refused. I asked to speak with the owners and he said they were not available for two weeks. My frustration is not only with my lawn, but with the attitude of the a general manager just throwing away my loyal business after so many years. If my business isn’t valuable enough to negotiate a solution, then my decision to take my business elsewhere was a good one."

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

Soil testers and licensed excavators are often the professionals you hire if you need a perc test. In some cases, structural engineers will also be able to conduct the test for you. In many municipalities, you’ll need your professional on-site to dig and fill the holes with water, as well as a representative from your local building department or health department. That representative is the individual who will determine whether your test passes or fails.

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

To hire a land surveyor, you need to start by searching online for reputable professionals in your area. Here are a few steps to take when making a shortlist:

  • Browse land surveyor service website

  • Check credentials

  • Read customer reviews

  • Find their contact information

  • Call or email to inquire about more information

  • Ask how far they travel, if you’re some distance away

  • Find out how they charge for their services

  • Ask about schedule and turnaround times

  • Repeat these steps for one to two other services and compare pricing

Professional well contractors may use electromagnetic mapping to look for places with a high likelihood of water. Water access can vary significantly, even on the same property, so it can be difficult to know where to drill if you don’t have specialized tools to look for water.
