WARNING! Don’t rely on your phone or the latest apps to give you accurate property survey results.

Hi, I’m Shelly with Cardinal Surveying. When I talk to you real quick about the risks, associated with using, some of the newest apps that are out that, really imply that they can find your property corners for you. There are a lot of resources out there now saying, hey, we are G.P.S.. We can find your property corners for you.

But here’s what I want to warn you about. Those information systems may not be completely accurate. Now, I will say they are probably going to get you within 2 to 5ft of where your property corner is, but it is not the same as knowing where your survey monuments are. And that is really what you need to be using, especially if you’re going to be building a fence.

So before you take the risk of putting up a $10,000 or more fence on your property or putting it on your neighbor’s property, consider having a boundary survey performed. Cardinal surveying would be happy to give you a quote. All you need to do is go on to our website at Cardinal surveying.com. Click on the button that says get quote.
