Central Survey, LLC, of Chicago, Illinois, provides you with a comprehensive plat of survey that helps you plan for construction or improvements. For a land survey, we need at least one of the following to get started: a property address, property index number, or legal description. Surveys are completed in as little as a few days from the initial order, with expedited services available within one day.

Our field crew visits your property to measure and obtain the necessary data. This information is then used to create a computer-generated plat of survey.

Staking

Report

Staking can be added to the survey. This is done by physically documenting the boundary corners of the property with iron pipes, rods, or other markers or by using reference marks placed in a concrete walk or curb on or near a boundary corner.

Land Surveys

Report

All surveys start out as a land survey. The minimum requirements for these show a closed boundary and all improvements up to and including the adjacent properties within 3' to 5'. Improvements include buildings, additions, walks, patios, and fences.

Topography

Report

Topography can be added to either survey. This is performed in relation to an established benchmark or assumed elevation. Ground elevations are taken on a grid layout generally up to and including a 25' perimeter outside the property and to the center of the street. All visible utilities with necessary invert elevations are also included.

Gary and his team are very responsive, friendly and extremely helpful when completing a plat of survey. We needed a survey in a pinch to submit for a building permit and he rearranged his schedule to make it happen. I highly recommend Central Survey!

I was recommended by a previous co-worker. Placed order for survey and had it sent to me in 4days (1 day sooner than promised). Priced better than most. Will definitely use their service again.

Attorneys and brokers, avoid this company at all costs. They may be the lowest quote but if they get busy they'll drop the ball and claim to have never seen your survey order (even if you have proof of delivery).
