When a large parcel of land is subdivided into smaller parcels called lots, the new boundary corners of these lots have to be marked with wooden survey pegs by a Licensed Surveyor. As improvements such as fencing and brick walls are constructed over these new boundary lines, the pegs are gradually disturbed over time and in most cases are removed or destroyed by the development. To correctly position a new fence or structure on or near a property boundary you should contact Pro West Surveying to repeg or identify the original boundary corners . If you are concerned about the position of existing structures along the property boundary, a Boundary Identification survey will help to clearly identify these structures in relation to property boundary.
