Questions before you call
Which kind of survey do I need?
Tell us whether the survey is for a closing, design, fence or construction work. We will discuss the information required for that purpose.
Can you mark a property line?
Ask whether marking is part of the agreed scope. Records, fieldwork and site conditions affect what can be established.
Is a tax map a boundary survey?
Do not assume it is suitable for your purpose. Ask what records and fieldwork are needed for the requested deliverable.
What do you need before quoting?
Start with the property location, purpose, deadline and any prior survey you are authorized to share.
Will you need access to the yard?
Access requirements are discussed before fieldwork. Tell us about locked areas, pets and access restrictions by phone.
Can you resolve a neighbor dispute?
A survey documents findings within its scope. Legal disputes may require separate legal advice.
Can I use an old survey?
Ask whether it meets the current purpose. Changes to the property or required information may call for new work.
How long does fieldwork take?
Timing depends on the site, records, access and agreed scope. Request an estimated schedule.
What will I receive?
The proposal identifies drawings, digital files, marking and any other deliverables included.
