A land survey is crucial before you buy any residential property, especially if you are planning to build a home on unused land. Without it, you could put yourself at a higher risk of encroaching on your neighbor’s territory and building on his land. Hiring professional land surveyors in California is a good start to ensuring that there will be no problems, whether you are building or renovating a home, or putting up a fence around your existing residence. Professional land surveyors are licensed and well-equipped in conducting a wide array of residential surveying services such as traditional boundary surveys.
Residential surveying typically involves measuring the boundaries of a parcel of land. Hence, it is also known as the ‘boundary survey’. However, professional land surveyors in California do more than merely measure your land and calculate property boundaries. Residential surveying is a complex process that involves research and analysis of the land before the property’s boundaries and plot are determined. Surveyors look up previous surveys, which may affect current conclusions on the land.
Residential land and property owners typically hire professional land surveyors in California in the event of dubious lands and before they build any type of property or structure. Hiring them makes sense if you are adding a new shed, expanding your home with a new building, or building a pool. You need to hire them if you want to build a fence, too. That way, you can be sure that you will not be building on your neighbor’s land and you can avoid any future disputes with neighbors and the law. The surveyors can help you learn about your area’s zoning regulations, too.
Professional land surveyors in California can conduct a wide array of specialized residential surveying services such as property line staking, foundation location surveys, lot splits, as-built surveys, and house site plans. They possess the skill and expertise to conduct the surveys using advanced and proven technology for quick and accurate results. Land surveyors can advise you on obvious differences between previous and current records and surveys about your land, and in case of any dispute, they can serve as credible witnesses when the problem must go to court.
