Property Survey?

When starting a fence project it is vital to know that the proposed fence will be on your property. This is important to you, the town officials and your neighbors.

1. If you already have an up-to-date property survey, it may have enough detail to locate your property corners, where you may find or can place stakes. This will help you discern your property lines.

2. If you do not have current valid property survey, you will have to hire a Land Surveying Company to create one and that will usually require your property deed.

Call Before You Dig

Call at 811 or 800-272-1000

At least three business days, prior to outdoor construction or digging, contractors and property owners – whoever is excavating – must call New Jersey One Call at 811 or 800-272-1000 and take the following steps:

Wait for the site to be marked with paint, flags or stakes. Yellow indicates the presence of underground natural gas lines.
Respect the marks and dig with care.
Hand dig within two feet of buried piping and facilities.
Be mindful that inclement weather may wash away the painted markings.

It's FREE and it's the LAW.
