Land Surveyors Share 5 Essential Services

1. Boundary Surveys

For this inspection, land surveyors use deeds and other documents as well as field research to determine a lot’s boundaries. This survey is necessary for resolving land disputes and informing owners about the specific parameters of their property.

2. Location Surveys

This evaluation includes the elements of a boundary survey and adds research about improvements on the land, such as buildings and fences. Title insurance companies and mortgage lenders sometimes request this data.

3. Site Planning Surveys

This evaluation provides the layout of the land to help an owner create a plan for development. It determines the placement of elements of residential and commercial construction projects, such as buildings, streets, plumbing and sewer lines, and other infrastructure.

4. Topographic Surveys

This survey defines the locations of natural features like hills and bodies of water as well as manmade components like ditches and roads. It provides a base map for anyone who wants to design a building or another improvement for a plot of land.

5. Construction Surveys

This examination outlines the specifics of a building project with construction staking. It marks the exact sites for buildings, roadways, and other structures and outlines requirements for grading and land displacement. It’s necessary for any construction project.
