Connecticut Perimeter Boundary Surveys

A less expensive way to establish the boundaries of a property in relation to man-made structures and natural features is through a perimeter boundary survey. Unlike a regular property survey, a perimeter boundary survey does not show all of the features that are located on a property; rather, it strictly shows recorded easements, man-made structures and natural features that appear within ten feet of a property's boundary lines. This type of survey is useful for many situations; for instance, it can be enormously beneficial for a homeowner who would like to put up a new fence. Because it strictly concerns the areas that are within ten feet of a property's boundaries, a perimeter boundary survey can be a lot more affordable.

The Risks of Not Having a Perimeter Boundary Survey Performed
It is very important to double-check the boundaries of a property before making improvements to it. If a perimeter boundary survey is not performed, and a neighbor raises a boundary dispute, the improvement may have to be removed at the expense of the person who built it. The cost of going back and removing such work can be considerable. By having a perimeter boundary survey performed, a homeowner can obtain a current and highly accurate map that displays all of the recorded easements, natural features and man-made structure that lie within ten feet of his property's boundaries.

Old Maps Could Mean Trouble
When you pay for a perimeter boundary survey, you also pay to confirm the locations of your property's boundaries. If necessary, extensive searches of town hall records may be performed. In the end, you will receive a highly accurate map that can be used to ensure the accuracy of corner staking and line staking. In fact, such steps should not be taken at all until the completion of a perimeter boundary survey. When additional areas of the property need to be defined, a property survey may be in order. Many times, however, a perimeter boundary survey is more than sufficient for a homeowner's needs. The resulting map will be filed with the local land records office, where neighbors can refer to it as well.
