Small Lot Surveys
Many thanks for your fine service on our property at the Pond. The lot description is fine, the map is in detail that is easy to see and understand. We are very pleased with the job and we thank you for it... Again our thanks for a job well done.

Maine Boundary Consultants has performed hundreds of Small Lot Surveys such as camp lots, waterfront lake lots, back lots, cottage lots, summer homes, as well as small village and city lots, etc. These Small Lot Surveys can vary greatly in complexity. We have numerous original subdivision plans on file and a lot of experience in dealing with these potentially complicated types of surveys. Our records from past surveys and our large collection of other surveyors’ records provide us with a basis of thousands of Small Lot Surveys.
The majority of the old small lots in Maine were not laid out and monumented according to the standards surveyors adhere to now. The surveying process is similar to a Boundary Survey. Usually several adjacent lots will also need to be researched and surveyed in order to complete an accurate and reliable survey.
Often a Small Lot Survey is needed when the boundaries or deeds are not clear, when building additions, a fence or other improvements, or neighbors are encroaching. The results of a Small Lot Survey is similar to a Boundary Survey. Usually a Small Lot Survey shows all buildings and improvements.
