Q: How do you find a land surveyor?

• <div><p>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, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/questions-to-ask-a-land-surveyor.htm">ask the land surveyor</a> if they are licensed in the state, have liability insurance, and can quote you a fee before starting.</p></div>

Q: How much does land surveying cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-land-survey-cost.htm">Land surveying costs</a> about <b>$530</b> for the average homeowner. However, your total cost could range anywhere from <b>$200 to $1,000</b> or more. Factors like the size of your property play a significant role in what you pay, but other things like the survey type and the time of year can also impact the final cost. </p><p>For example, if you&rsquo;re looking for a simple boundary survey, you can expect to pay between <b>$100 and $600</b>. However, if you want a more in-depth survey that depicts the elevations of your hills and trees, you can expect to pay between $500 and $1,200 for a topographic survey. </p></div>

Q: Do you measure from 0 or 1 on a measuring tape?

• <div><p>Measure from zero on a measuring tape by placing the metal hook right up against the edge of what you need to measure. You can also latch the hook onto an open edge&mdash;of, say, a table&mdash;to accurately measure as well. If you begin at the 1-inch mark, you'll need to subtract an inch from your total.</p></div>

Q: How do you build a road on a slope?

• <div><p>Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn&rsquo;t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.</p></div>

Q: How do I know how deep my well is?

• <div><p>There are a couple of ways you can determine the depth of your well. One method is to use a device called a well sounder. This tool has a long measuring tape containing a sensor to alert you once the end reaches the water. </p><p>Or you can DIY it by using a long tape measure with a half-filled bottle of water attached to it. Lower the tape measure into your well. Once you feel tension on the tape, you&rsquo;ll know the bottle has reached your static water level. This will give you an approximate idea of your well&rsquo;s depth.</p></div>

Very friendly, thorough and prompt service. The Chesapeake rep who surveyed my property actually recommended a cheaper alternative to water an area of my property than I had proposed! Big relief after dealing for years with rude and incompetent service from Hydro-Tech.

I provided the paint and the painters arrived and worked until they finished the hallway, stairway, and landing of colonial house. We were very pleased with the work and the price. And they were able to reach the very high places that are difficult to reach without the right equipment.

"Scheduling and receipt of the draft survey took longer than expected. I had to reach out to the company on both matters after accepting their proposal. The surveyor was professional. Answered my questions and placed clear markers on my property boundary pins, a requirement of my HOA for a home improvement project."
