CONSTRUCTION SURVEYS
AS-BUILT SURVEY
- An As-Built survey is a survey that documents the location of recently constructed elements of a construction project. As-built surveys are done for record, completion evaluation and payment purposes. This survey shows the owner, the Title Company and the Lending Institution the location of all improvements in relation to the property lines, known setbacks, and known easements.
BOUNDARY SURVEY
- STANDARD - TYPICAL SURVEYS
- a survey that establishes boundaries of a parcel using its legal description, which typically involves the setting or restoration of monuments or markers at the corners or along the lines of the parcel, often in the form of iron rods, pipes, or concrete monuments in the ground, or nails set in concrete or asphalt.
- CATAGORY 1A SURVEY

- ALTA SURVEY
- ALTA surveys shows the boundaries of the property, the location of improvements on the subject property, including any and all structures, fences, utility lines, roads, etc., along with the location of any/all easements. They are a detailed survey performed by a registered licensed surveyor, prepared in accordance with the standards specified by ALTA ( the American Land Title Association ) and ACSM ( American Congress on Surveying and Mapping ).
FORM/FOUNDATION SURVEY
- A form survey is performed to show the location in respect to the property lines, known easements, and known setback lines. By obtaining a form survey the location of the foundation is checked prior to the placement of concrete, and can save costly corrective measures in case of an encroachment of a property line.
- A foundation survey is a survey done to collect the positional data on a foundation that has been poured and is cured. This is done to ensure that the foundation was constructed in the location, and at the elevation, authorized in the plot plan, site plan, or subdivision plan.
CONSTRUCTION STAKING SURVEY
- Performed to facilitate the proper location of new improvements in relation to the property lines or existing improvements, as well as verification of concrete form locations prior to the placement of concrete. This can include vertical location as well as horizontal locations.
ELEVATION CERTIFICATE
- FEMA has developed a standardized Elevation Certificate form that is used to gather elevation data for the purpose of accurately assessing flood risks to structures located in Flood Hazard Zones . We offer an Elevation Certificate for property owners for the purpose of accurately assessing flood risks for submission to insurance companies and submission to FEMA for flood determination review.
