Edward J Farrell Surveyor

We bought a house in Malden and wanted to get land surveyed to put up a fence. Edward came recommended from a friend who had their Stoneham property surveyed and was one of the only surveyors that was able to perform the services we needed. Everything was very straight forward—the time estimate he provided was between 4-6 weeks, but his team had everything wrapped up (stakes, markers, and plot plan) to us within 3 weeks. Everything was really easy and smooth!

Would not recommend to anyone or hire again. The owner did not do the survey. Two of his relatives did and they could not answer my questions. I felt that they did not know exactly what to do to measure the land.

Never got a call or email. How can I answer yes or no to Would I hire again if I never used the firm?

The survey was completed in a timely manner and drawing was sent to me when everything was finished. Ed was very professional and did the job asked in a timely manner. I would use Ed going forward for any of my survey needs.

Work was done to my expectations. They were on site for 2 days and everything was very smooth.

It went WONDERFUL. His team was fast and I received all of my documentation quickly. I would HIGHLY recommend.

It went very smoothly and I wish I had done it sooner. They are the most reasonably priced and I should have done it sooner. We landscaped our yard and had a hard time with the boundaries and needed the landscaper to move something they put down.

Very professional, provided lots of documentation of survey and answered all questions. Reasonably priced. I would definitely hire him again if needed and have highly recommended him to several friends.

Ed was very helpful and got the job done!

Perfect. Would happily refer to everyone.

Excellent service. Took a while due to missing markers but we were not under any time constraints.

Ed was extremely responsive and got my plan done when he promised and helped out with last minute needs. He was very clear about what he could and could not do up front. I would definitely recommend him to a friend.

The survey process was excellent, the survey crew was prompt and professional, and the survey uncovered several surprises. The biggest surprise was learning that on one side of our property we have an easement of which we were totally unaware and which was not disclosed by the seller when we purchased the property. In fact, the prior owner indicated on the disclosure form that there were no easements and. for some reason, our attorney was either unaware of this or did not point it out. In respect to cost, Ed Farrel's price was the lowest of four companies that quoted this project, and I would highly recommend him to anyone requiring a land survey.

Mr. Farrell did a great job at a very reasonable cost. Very professional.

Excellent work at a very fair price.

I bought a home last year that was surveyed by the previous home owner. They used Edward Farrell's services. Since we've been at the house, our neighbor installed a fence on what I thought was our property. I called Edward about the surveyed land and he was at the house within 5 mins to walk-through the plotting. Again, months later, I called to purchase copies of the plotting for us to complete our own fencing and he offered to send them for free! Edward has been nothing but helpful, professional and friendly since we reached out to him. I would recommend his services to anyone. If we ever need surveying services in the future, we will be sure to use him.

Never got back to me after we spoke on the phone.

Ed was very responsive in a difficult, dispute-related situation. He performed the work professionally and without being intrusive. He also promptly followed up on the work when surveyor stakes were removed by an adversarial neighbor. I would highly recommend his services.

Ed did the survey three times at our request. He was very responsive.

Excellent service. Mr. Farrell was knowledgeable, professional and detail orientated. He was available via email to answer any question. I would recommend his services to others.

Ed was extremely professional and the price was very reasonable . Our land was properly surveyed and the plot plan was sent to us . We now had everything needed to satisfy Town hall to obtain our permit for the kitchen extension. We would highly recommended Ed Farrell

First, let me say that I live in Burlington, MA where a surveyor named Douglas Forbes messed up everything in the area in the 1950's. Unfortunately, this make determining your property lines very difficult. I contacted Ed about getting a plot plan and getting the yard staked out so I can get a fence installed. Ed told me from the beginning that the area was very difficult and it would take some time a research but he wrote me a proposal anyway. I contacted another surveyor in the area who was not willing to even give me a proposal. He said that it would be a 3 phase process and just expected me to keep writing checks. Needless to say, I went with Ed Farrell. Ed finished up the survey and did a great job. I actually lost square footage, but I was prepared for that because of the terrible surveys in this area. So, I would think that it is rare to see someone so happy about about paying to lose square footage on their property. But, now I feel confident in putting up a fence without fear of placing it on the wrong property or against code in some way. Even though it took some time to get through the research and find accurate monuments in the area to use, Ed kept me appraised of where he was in the process. If I ever had any questions he got back to me quickly and professionally. I really appreciate him taking on the challenge and I am even more happy to have an accurate, certified plot plan for my home.

Ed was responsive to my request for a proposal. His cost was very competitive. He started work when he said he would and was communicative throughout the process. The results he provided indicated that a neighbor had encroached significantly on my property. Ed's results were verified by my neighbor's own property survey, performed by another vendor. I was very pleased with Ed's service and the quality of his work. It was worth every penny for me to engage his services because I was able to get my land back and I did not have any nasty surprises after I paid for a new fence.

Excellent. Very precise and detail-oriented.

I needed a land survey for the addition of a garage. I highly recommend Ed Farrell to anyone looking for a land surveyor. Ed was very professional throughout the process. Every time I placed a phone call or sent an email it was answered promptly. Ed's crew came out when he said they would. I'm impressed on how quickly the survey was completed and sent out. Also, it should be noted that Ed offered the best price that I received for my particular job. I would use Ed Farrell again in the future and recommend him to family and friends.
