Boundary Surveys
We have received the final Boundary Survey Maps for the property at 45 Cole Hill Road. Gail and I would like to thank you for the services that you supplied us. All through this process we have been extremely impressed with the quality, timeliness, and professionalism of your service. We are so impressed that we would like to frame a full size print of the Boundary Survey Map for the wall of our new log home which will be built on this property... We will also highly recommend your services to anyone in need of a survey. Thank you for such a great job!

Maine Boundary Consultants specializes in performing top quality typical Boundary Surveys for all types of land owners. We have performed thousands of Boundary Surveys since 1988. A typical Boundary Survey usually ranges between one half acre to more than twenty acres. Usually a client requests a Boundary Survey for the following reasons: buying or selling, to determine acreage, and or to define and confirm boundary lines and or corners, known as Retracement Surveys. Boundary Surveys are performed according to the
Standards of Practice.
The first step to complete a Boundary Survey is a comprehensive research phase. This includes a deed study of the parcel being surveyed, and that of your abutters, sometimes going back in time to determine the creation of each boundary line. Field work is the second step, which involves locating key physical boundary evidence such as corner monuments, and boundary line evidence. Also, improvements, roads and other physical features are located. Then office calculations are performed on the information gathered during the field work and matched with an analysis and comparison with the information found during the research phase.
The results of a Boundary Survey include:
- A Boundary Survey Map, generally 24”x36”, prepared for the purpose of recording in the Registry of Deeds.
- Monuments set at pertinent locations, being previously unmarked corners.
- A written Legal Description describing the property bounds in words.
- Written Report Notes discussing the results of the survey work.
