“Anderson [Psomas] nailed it with our construction staking. They were fast, accurate, and got everything done ahead of schedule. We’ll definitely use them again.”
David Anderson
Harvest Village
“I hired Anderson [Psomas] to survey my property before building a new fence. At first, I wasn’t sure if it was necessary, but they found that the existing fence was actually on my neighbor’s property! Their attention to detail saved me from future legal hassles. The team was fast, thorough, and made the whole process easy. I’ll definitely be using them again.”
Carol Beck
Homeowner - Saratoga Springs, UT
“For our commercial development, Anderson [Psomas] handled the ALTA/NSPS survey, and I couldn’t be happier with their service. We’d previously worked with another firm, but Anderson’s knowledge of local regulations and fast turnaround convinced us to switch. They helped us avoid potential delays by ensuring our survey was 100% compliant with all requirements. I highly recommend them—this project moved forward without a hitch!”

What is the difference between a Boundary Survey and an ALTA Survey?
A boundary survey establishes the physical corners and legal property lines of a parcel. An ALTA/NSPS Survey is a more comprehensive, nationwide standard survey required by lenders and title companies for commercial real estate. It includes boundary lines plus building locations, easements, parking spaces, zoning setbacks, and utility access.
How much does a property line or boundary survey cost in Utah?
Land survey costs depend on parcel size, terrain complexity, age of historical records, and city requirements. A standard residential boundary survey typically starts between $800 and $2,000, while commercial ALTA or subdivision surveys vary based on detailed project scopes. Contact our team for a free, custom proposal.
How long does it take to complete a topographic or ALTA survey?
Standard turnaround time is usually 5 to 10 business days from field entry to final CAD/stamped drawing delivery. Expedited scheduling is available for urgent real estate closings or construction starts.
Why is construction staking necessary before breaking ground?
Construction staking translates architectural/engineering plans into actual physical markers on site. Accurate staking prevents costly builder errors—such as placing footings inside setback zones or misaligning utility hookups—saving thousands of dollars in potential rework.
