How much will the survey cost? Cost estimates can be generated based on the anticipated time to complete the project. The amount of time to complete the project, however, be widely variable depending on the amount of information available prior to any field work, the amount of difficulty in obtaining field measurements, and the specific documents requested out of the survey.

What do you need to give me an accurate estimate? To enable us to give you accurate cost estimate, we will need to know the description of the land parcel, the location of the parcel, the size of the property, the purpose of the survey, and the scope of the surveying services that are being requested.

 How long will it take to finish my survey? This depends on many factors such as our backlog, acreage, terrain, tree cover, etc. We will generally give an estimate on the time frame to complete the project in our proposal.

What is the surveying company going to give me after they finish the land survey? The surveyor should provide you with a survey map or plan and if they were required to set corner beacons that survey plan should be filed or deposited in the Director of Surveys and Mapping – Ministry of Lands records for public viewing or for future copies. The corner beacons that were to be located on the ground should be uncovered or replaced by the surveyor if missing with his unique beacon registration number stamped on it. Please note that not all types of surveys require all of the above.
