Land Mapping

Rafal was a decent enough guy to work with, and he quoted me for a property stakeout, with the intention that it stand up in court if it came to examination (that was the agreement). After two visits (since he broke his metal detector on the first visit) and about two weeks, he dropped off a folder of plans to go with the stakes that he set at the property line.
He was pleasant enough to talk to, and worked well with the nuisance neighbor (who was the primary reason for the surveying in the first place.)
Only later did I find out that the plans didn’t include elevations (which was true to the quote, he didn’t promise elevations), and he’s not actually a licensed surveyor! So the plans won’t hold up in court, and really aren’t worth much more than a cocktail napkin. And when I emailed him back to ask about elevations, he never returned my email.
Caveat emptor.
