27106, Winston Salem, North Carolina - September 5, 2015

Land Surveyors

$60.00 to $65.00 per hour (principal surveyor)
$95.00 per hour (two-man crew)
$0.27 to $1.00 per linear foot of perimeter
$225.00 to $750.00 fixed fee for residential boundary survey
$450.00 to $650.00 fixed fee for elevation certification
Fees are based on the perimeter length, difficulty expected due to terrain and briars v flat and open, and the final work product requested. A ground survey with report on a small open lot will be much less than a topographic survey of an overgrown lot in a ravine. I investigate the site through Google Earth, County GIS sites, and frequently by an actual visit before I come up with a fixed fee proposal.
