A land survey defines your property boundaries and features using professional methodology and legal principles. In Ontario, land surveys are crucial for resolving disputes, obtaining building permits, completing real estate transactions, or applying for zoning approvals.

An SRPR shows property boundaries, permanent structures, fences, decks, encroachments and registered easements or rights-of-way and their relationship to property lines. It’s often a requirement when selling or refinancing a property, or for municipal compliance.

Most boundary or SRPR surveys are completed within 10-15 business days. Larger or more complex surveys like subdivisions, condominiums or topographic plans may take longer, depending on scope and municipal review timelines.

Costs vary depending on property size, location, and the survey type. A typical SRPR for a standard residential lot may range from $3,800 to $4,500 depending on parcel size and boundary complexity. Contact us for a free, tailored estimate.
