Are you about to embark on a commercial or residential construction project? If so, someone has likely mentioned that you may need land surveyors to help with the project. For those outside of the construction business, this term may seem unfamiliar and even intimidating. Read on to find out just what a land surveyor does, and how they can help you with your next construction task.

A Brief Guide to Surveying

What Does a Land Surveyor Do?

Land surveyors are hired to map out the logistics of a construction project. They are trained in locating, describing, and mapping out the boundaries and limitations of a piece of land. This can include natural features present on the land, as well as the location of manmade buildings and developments. The result of their survey is the creation of written documents that successfully detail the specifics of the site.

Who Needs a Land Surveyor?

You should have your land surveyed if you’re about to start on a construction project, or if you’re thinking about buying a plot of land. Some banks and financial institutions require land to be surveyed before they give out money for the project. This is especially necessary if you foresee conflicts regarding land boundaries with neighbors or developers.
