Services
Boundary Surveys
Boundary surveys establish property lines through deed research and field data collection. We locate and mark parcel corners to create certified drawings showing acreage, encroachments, and boundary monuments. This service protects property rights during disputes, home improvements, or real estate transactions while ensuring legal compliance with local regulations.
Topographic Surveys
Topographic surveys map ground contours and existing features like buildings, trees, and utilities. We provide detailed elevation data and surface features for engineers and architects developing residential, commercial, or infrastructure projects. This information supports accurate site planning and construction design while meeting municipal requirements for land development.
ALTA/ACSM Surveys
ALTA/ACSM surveys meet national standards for commercial real estate transactions. We document property boundaries, improvements, easements, and encroachments to satisfy title insurance requirements. This comprehensive service identifies survey risks while providing lenders and buyers with legally defensible documentation of property characteristics and legal access points.
Construction Staking
Construction staking translates design plans to physical locations on-site. We mark building corners, utilities, and infrastructure to guide contractors during development. This service ensures structures are built in correct locations while maintaining compliance with permits and zoning regulations through precise elevation and alignment verification.
Elevation Certificates
Elevation certificates document property elevations relative to flood zones. We provide FEMA-compliant documentation for flood insurance rating and compliance. This service helps property owners determine flood risk while meeting lender requirements for structures in special flood hazard areas through accurate elevation measurements and certification.

Now I have to go to court and prove that the line is wrong and I cant even pull out of my driveway because they sprayed the line wrong! You guys are corrupt and dont know how to survey!

We have used Boswell for just about everything, from marking and clearing thousands of feet of property line, to land combinations and splits, to simple flagging of property lines. Prices and service are excellent!
