"McClure Surveying
101 Walter Chamblee Road
Anderson, SC 29626
864.844.3165
SC surveyor #3438B
The land surveyed was in Laurens county SC near Lake Greenwood.
My first contact with Mr. McClure was in early May 2013.  We had several phone conversations about the location of the job, plat numbers of maps from the county office and pricing.  Mr. McClure started making the long drive from Anderson,SC to Laurens county, SC, well over an hour each way, the next week, but was frequently hindered by bad weather, in May and June, a tornado touched down near his farm in Anderson, SC and heavy rains all over South Carolina and the Southeast, so the job took a little longer than usual, neither swayed this Marine from his duty.  I was in no hurry, I prefer a job well done, rather than a fast job, and that's what i got, a job well done.  Being a Marine myself, and knowing and encountering other Marines, the word 'can't' is generally not in the vocabulary.  A job well done for our country and me.  The job was excellent. I would hire Mr. McClure again in a flash.  Mr. McClure also put me in touch with someone that he trusts, that would cut a rough road, with his bulldozer, around the perimeter inside the property line.

Land Surveying questions, answered by experts

The small lines on the tape measure either indicate inches, fractions of an inch, or centimeters and millimeters. On the imperial unit side (aka the inches side), the longest lines indicate inches, followed by the next shortest lines that indicate a half-inch, and then the quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-inch. On the metric side, the lines break down meters, centimeters, and millimeters.

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.

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’t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.

Permit requirements to clear land vary by municipality, so whether or not you need permits depends on where you live and what you’re removing from the land. Some building departments will require permits for any underground work or excavation, meaning grinding down tree stumps on your property would require permits. Others mandate individual permits for each tree you remove. You can contact your local building department or a land-clearing specialist near you to see if permits are necessary for your job.

A land survey includes the layout of a single property, including precise measurements and to-scale drawings of boundary lines, land improvements, and sometimes other features, like topography and drainage information. A plat map includes the layouts and boundary lines of several adjacent plots and basic structure measurements. Surveys are normally more valuable for homeowners and buyers, and plat maps are for governmental use.
