"Highly recommended. Did the survey with the minimal of fuss using the latest equipment and took the time to show us exactly where the marked boundaries were which was very helpful given we were dealing with a contentious name who had a habit of overstepping the line. Followed up expediently with both a pdf and hard copies of the certificate of survey."

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’ll know the bottle has reached your static water level. This will give you an approximate idea of your well’s depth.

You can’t build on undeveloped land without preparing it for construction, which involves running utilities to the site or accounting for private utilities like wells and septic systems and grading and compacting the soil for safe construction. Once you prepare the land, you can build on it as long as the project abides by local zoning regulations.
