Homeowner Services

Our Land Surveyors can provide a range of services that are beneficial to homeowners. 

1. Defining Property Boundaries: A property surveyor determines the precise location of roads, buildings, and other features of a specific property.  This information is used to determine any changes to the property line, restrictions on what may be built or where new structures must be located, how large structures may be, and the appropriate building depths for foundations.

2.  Facilitating Home Improvements: If you’re planning to make major changes to your home, like installing a pool, constructing a garage, or building a home addition, you might need to order a land survey. The local building department may require you to submit a newly revised survey reflecting the size and location of the previous improvements.

3.  Avoiding Legal Conflicts: Knowing your boundaries before you build a home, add fencing, or cut timber can help you avoid costly mistakes that can lead to lawsuits.  A surveyor can provide a detailed bird’s-eye view of your property along with all of the structures on it.

4. Assessing Risks: A floodplain survey will tell you which flood zone your property is in, in turn telling you how likely it is that your home will have flooding or water issues.
