If you need a boundary survey performed for your upcoming construction project, consider the experienced team at James L. Edwards Land Surveying of Ayden, NC. The purpose of a boundary survey is to formally define the boundaries of a property.

The focus is on the definition of the plot's corners, which are then used as parameters for the upcoming construction project. Boundary surveys are typically performed before a contractor or property owner buys, splits, improves, or builds upon a given piece of land. An accurate boundary survey requires a drawing to be produced by a land surveyor.

A professional conduct the survey to ensure that measurements are as accurate as possible. Boundaries of land ownership are mapped, measured, and marked during the survey. The surveyor also examines the historical records of the property and the surrounding lands, as well as potentially speaking with past owners. By doing this, the buyer will be much better informed going into their upcoming project. Field work results will be compared to research, and the surveyor will reconcile all the information to determine the limits and parameters of the project. In the end, the surveyor can produce a plan as well as a legal description or report, all of which are essential to the upcoming project for legal and logistical reasons.
