What is included in a complete boundary survey?

The most common type of survey performed by William C. Darling, Land Surveyor, is a boundary survey, for both residential and commercial clients. Over 1,000 boundary surveys have been completed since 1978. A complete boundary survey includes a research of public records for deeds and maps, a field survey to locate existing boundary evidence, analytical computations to determine boundary line location, detailed mapping, parcel descriptions, and placement of property markers.


How much will my survey cost?

The cost to perform a boundary survey is dependant upon the time it takes to perform all of the tasks required to complete the survey. The complexity of the survey can be effected by the clarity of the deed descriptions, amount of physical evidence found in the field, accessability to the property, the terrain and the size and shape of the parcel being surveyed. As a result, only a professional land surveyor can accurately estimate the cost of a survey. The cost of a survey can range from a few hundred to several thousands of dollars. You should keep in mind that the cost of a survey represents a very small percentage of your total investment, and it can help you avoid costly and painful problems in the future.
