This survey can be specific to a particular lot line or lines.A sketch outlining the boundaries surveyed and indicating the iron survey monuments and/or wooden stake markers found or planted at the property corners and/or along the limits of the property is only prepared upon the client's request. The sketch may also show the location of structures that encroach upon the boundary surveyed.The sketch would also show any additional marking done with wooden stake markers.A Boundary Markout Survey is essential prior to any construction. This includes, for example, building a fence, driveway or carport. The surveyor will accurately determine your property limits and can advise of easement locations. Using this information to ensure that you build on your own land can save you time, money and headaches in the future.
