Boundary Survey

Definition of Boundary Surveying
Boundary surveying is the process of determining the property corners and lines of a parcel of land as described in a deed. This survey reveals the extent of any easements or encroachments and identifies limitations imposed by governing entities. It ensures accurate property boundaries, which are essential for legal and construction purposes.
Purpose of Boundary Surveys
Individuals often require boundary surveys to establish the exact location of property lines, especially when planning to build a fence or wall. Knowing the precise boundaries is crucial for avoiding disputes with neighbors and ensuring that any construction stays within the legal limits of the property.
Research and Fieldwork
Alta EI personnel conduct thorough research, examining recorded documents, maps, records of survey, final plats, and deeds. They also review adjacent property deeds to gather all necessary information. This research is followed by a physical survey of existing property corner evidence to accurately determine the property boundaries.
Survey Completion and Mapping
Once the fieldwork is completed, Alta EI prepares a detailed map showing property lines, dimensions, fences, and any encroachments. This map serves as a comprehensive record of the property's boundaries and any relevant features, ensuring clarity for legal, construction, and personal purposes.
