Comprehensive Land Surveyor Capabilities

Our extensive land surveying services include:
Property Line Staking
A land surveyor performs line staking for fences, building improvements, outbuildings, and other property features. It is also an effective service to improve the value of a property.
ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys
Land title surveys provide detailed information, including boundaries, property lines, encroachments, real property, land ownership info, liens, and easements.
Topographic Surveys
Also called contour surveys, these topographic surveys pinpoint grading features and elevations on a land parcel. These surveys are often requested for real estate transactions, construction jobs, and civil engineering designs.
Boundary Surveys
A land surveyor performs boundary surveys in order to identify the location of property corners and property lines for land parcels in deeds. They are also used to determine the size of encroachments and easements. In some cases, they also determine the limitations imposed by local or state property regulations.
As-Built Surveys
A land surveyor company with the right experience can conduct as-built surveys to plan construction improvements. State and local zoning boards often require these surveys during a construction project.
Construction Staking
In order to properly interpret civil engineering and architectural plans, layout surveys or construction staking are used. These surveys also calculate offset survey locations and elevations. Staking includes identifying the elevation and location of certain enhancements with the stakes identified on approved architectural and/or engineering drawings.
FEMA-Flood Elevation Certificates
A flood elevation certificate from FEMA classifies properties in FEMA flood map zones and are also used to determine rates for flood insurance.

Have an inquiry?
He, she, they are always lying and are not here right now, are they? Unless he, she, they are Land Surveyors, they have no business telling anyone where the boundary lines are. Real Estate Agents and sellers of real property are only trying to make a sale. Only a Professional Land Surveyor licensed in the State of Georgia can tell you where a property line is. Given the opportunity, any person will lie to protect or improve his interest.
Possibly. Old, ancient (established) fence can be a good indicator of boundary lines but should not be assumed to the be line. Neither you or I were there when the fence was installed so the only way to tell where the actual line is, is to survey and measure the line and compare the measurement between corner monuments to the existing records (deeds and plats). I have seen old barbed wire fence as much as 50 feet off of the line.
I/we are performing a professional service on your most valuable possession – your house and land. And unlike other investments to your property such as new vinyl siding, new floors, a deck built on the back of your house, a survey delineating boundary lines is a one and done cost if you preserve the survey markings and monuments.
Most people only see the survey crew come out and put stakes in the ground and are unaware of the preparation of the field work. The first part and most important part of a survey is the records research. Research is done not only on your property but also the surrounding properties to look for overlaps or gaps in ownership. The records (deeds and plats) are carefully evaluated and compiled and then field measurements and compared to the records. My goal is not to be cheap. My goal is to give you the best Survey possible at a competitive price.
In addition to the field work, we have equipment to pay for, insurance on equipment, insurance of vehicles, and cost of materials to pay for.
The expensive equipment you see is only taking the measurements. The ability to think and rationalize through a problem and discrepancy is what sets Professional Land Surveyors apart.
