Why a Professional Land Surveyor?
According to provincial law, only surveys made by licensed Ontario Land Surveyors are legal. Only members of the Association of Ontario Land Surveyors have completed the academic requirements and practical training before licensing. Only Association members are required to maintain the necessary theoretical, practical and ethical standards set by legislation and the profession.

Our work includes surveys for boundary determination, topography, land subdivision, condominium, land severance, building and construction layout, mapping and control, site plans and related applications.

We make use of modern technology such as electronic measuring equipment, electronic data recorders, computer aided drafting, computer calculations and wide format colour ink plotters which help make our work accurate, reliable, efficient and effective.

Wide format colour plotting services and drafting in CAD formats are also available and we can provide large format copying services. We have acquired knowledge in the fields of Geographic Information Systems such as ESRI ArcInfo and MAPinfo and have helped our clients with survey grade satellite based Global Positioning System devices such as Sokkia real time technologies. Our product can be provided in computer format (eg. Autocad, dwg, dxf etc.) as well as the traditional "hard" copy plans in colour and black and white.

What Will It Cost?
Depending on the nature and extent of the work, anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. Fees for surveys are determined on an individual basis, depending mainly on the amount of time required for the research and the survey. Prior to engaging your surveyor, you may wish to enquire of the likely estimate of the fees that survey will entail, along with the expected completion date.

We would be pleased to discuss your survey needs and to offer our services to you. Please see our "online quote request" form, or feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.
