Wall Check Survey

What Are They?

Wall Check Surveys recover the outline and/or property corners for a subject property.

In order to accurately assess boundaries, it is essential to have a clear understanding of the property.

And recovering the property corners and outline involves finding and verifying the physical boundaries of the property.

And this ensures that any build, inspections, or repairs are conducted within the appropriate boundaries.

Wall Check Survey – The Process of Recovering Property Corners and the Outline of a Property Involves Several Steps.

First, HBA surveyors will review any existing property records, including deeds and surveys, to gain a better understanding of the property’s history and boundaries.

We may also consult with local officials or other experts to gather more information about the property.

Once we have a better understanding HBA surveyors will begin the process of physically locating and verifying the corners of the property.

Specialized Equipment

This may involve using specialized equipment, such as metal detectors or ground-penetrating radar, to locate any existing markers or monuments that may have been placed by previous surveyors.

In cases where the property corners cannot be located, surveyors may need to use other methods to verify the boundaries of the property. This may include measuring the distance between known landmarks, such as buildings or roads, and using this information to locate the property corners.

Property Outline

Once the property corners have been located and verified, our surveyors will use this information to establish the property’s outline.

This can be done by measuring the distances and angles between each corner of the property, and using this information to create a detailed map or diagram of the property’s boundaries.

The process of recovering the outline and/or property corners for a subject property can be challenging, especially in cases where there is limited information available or where the property has undergone significant changes over time.

However, it is an essential part of conducting a wall check survey, as it helps ensure that any inspections or repairs conducted are within the appropriate boundaries and that the results of the survey are accurate and reliable.

In addition to ensuring the accuracy of the wall check survey, recovering the property corners, and producing the outline there are a variety of other reasons you may need this type of survey.

Disputes

For instance, property owners may wish to establish clear boundaries in order to avoid disputes with neighboring property owners or to comply with local zoning regulations.

Additionally, an accurate wall check survey indicate property boundaries and how they can be important when buying or selling a property, as they can affect the property’s value and marketability.

And by accurately identifying the boundaries of the property, HBA surveyors can help ensure that any inspections or repairs are conducted within the appropriate boundaries.
