Creating Dreamscapes Through Land & Property Surveys
The world is ever-expanding and revolutionizing, and this applies to 'Land & Property', more than any other domain. Renovations, refurbishments and extensions are just a few of the changes that people are planning to make to their homes and properties. A great deal of background work needs to be done, before any of these ideas can materialize.
Surveying is essentially the art and science of measuring and mapping land. Land Surveyors are the people who plot, measure and record the details of land, using previous maps as well as creating their own, so as to advise planning and construction. They also help to uncover any disputes over allocations.
A Land/Property Survey can range from an intensely detailed map of an area - Survey Mapping, to simply a skeletal plan depicting only the key features. Only a licensed Land Survey, produced by a qualified & Professional Land Surveyor, is able to describe exactly what the area that is being purchased includes or entails.
Land Surveyors provide Surveying Services that start with becoming familiar with the project, determining the type of survey & services to be provided, carrying out actual Field Survey and finally delivering the map for the best property solution. All this includes:- Boundary Survey to determine the property limits (beginning and ending points), to help prevent any property line disputes.
- Topographic Survey for vacant properties, to show property lines, visible utilities, walls and fences, trees and any other relevant features.
- Construction Survey indicating setback lines and Easements, layout-proposed buildings and additions, and any other new construction being planned for the property.
- Architectural Survey to show property lines, all visible utilities, hardscape and landscape, for making improvements to a property.
- ALTA (American Land & Title Association) Survey gives exact information regarding property lines, visible utilities etc., for the title company to purchase title insurance when refinancing or buying high-value properties.
- Land Easement Survey to describe the purpose and location of an Easement (right to use a portion of land).
- Land Surveying is crucial to responsible land development. Professional Land Surveyors render a highly technical and complex service by preparing a foundation upon which a project is built. They understand well that there are several layers to Land Surveying beyond producing a map or results that seem to 'look good', or like 'the real thing'!
