Understanding Our Land Surveying Services

HOW MUCH DOES A LAND SURVEY COST?

It depends on several different factors. For instance, we look at the size of the property we are surveying and what type of surveying work you need performed. The easiest way to answer is to call us at (205) 685-5300, we can schedule an appointment and come out to your property to review your needs.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET A SURVEY COMPLETED?

The average Boundary Survey can be completed and drawn within 10 business days.

WHAT TYPE OF SURVEY DO I NEED TO GET A BUILDING PERMIT?

A Site Plan Survey or a Foundation Survey will need to be submitted to most municipalities in order to get a building permit. Some areas can be built without permits not requiring a survey although it is always a good idea to know where your property lines are before construction begins.

WHAT DO I NEED TO GIVE MY INSURANCE COMPANY SO THEY CAN DETERMINE IF I NEED TO PAY FLOOD INSURANCE?

A FEMA Flood Elevation Certificate is required by most insurance companies to reduce your premium. The flood study will generally take about 3 days to complete on our end. This document is the beginning step of a process that may take a few months to get processed and start seeing implemented with your insurer, so it is best not to wait if you think there is a need for this study. Call us and we will give you any information that we have that may help in your decision.
