Information
The purchase of your home or other real property may be the biggest investment of your life. Having the protection of a land survey, and having the assurance that your ownership is secure against land title problems, will mean tremendous peace of mind

LAND
SURVEY
You may think that a casual inspection of
your property will tell you where all
of the boundaries for your (and your next door neighbors’) buildings,
fences
and other improvements are located.
However, If you purchase or make an improvement to your property
without an
accurate land survey, you may have a surprise waiting for you! You
might
determine that your home actually is partly located on your neighbors
property,
or your neighbor's garage is actually sticking onto your lot. These
problems
can be avoided ahead of time with a proper land survey by Welsh's.
Land surveying is the practice of the science of measurement; the assembly and assessment of land and geographic related information; the use of that information for the purpose of planning and implementing the efficient administration of the land, the sea and structures thereon; and the instigation of the advancement and development of such practices.
