Over the past two years I have worked with Paul multiple times for different survey needs on my property. My situation is complicated due to a boundary issue with the neighboring lot. Due to his accuracy and attention to detail, he was able to prove that the survey for the abutting was incorrect. Paul explained everything and answered all of my questions. This was a complicated process that he helped me navigate. I highly recommend him for any surveying needs.

Updating my review — we didn’t end up doing business together and the misunderstanding was resolved.

I contacted Chess Engineering because I needed a plot plan required for a permit for our home renovation. Paul got back to me quickly and suggested that the original surveyor can help us better because they had the original plot plan. I really appreciated his help.

They responded to my request for an elevation survey in less than an hour and scheduled the job for a week later. They showed up on time and did what they said they would do. I highly recommend them.

Paul and Will of Chess were great to work with. They listened to the challenges underway for expanding a parking area and put together a plot plan with boundary markers accordingly. I especially appreciate their willingness to share research they found and provide professional advice related to the project at hand. Paul and Will are responsive, reasonably priced, and don't shy away from difficult work. I will recommend them to friends.
