I purchased a property which had a survey done by this company back in 2002…read more The plat accessible to the online public, had 2 places missing whether or not a pin was found or set. That was questionable. I hired them to come out, find, set, and mark the property boundaries and lines. Just to be sure I knew what I now owned. The same side in question from the previous plat, the side with missing pins, had 22 pine trees in the path of the line during my survey. I have since had the trees removed, and noticed that the marker stakes are snaked, where it should be a straight line. It's evident to anyone with functional eyeballs. When I called the company to address my concerns, I was first told I'd receive a call the next morning. By mid afternoon of the following day, I still hadn't heard back, so I called, again. Which was fine, things happen. I was transferred to speak with Mark. I explained that the line was not straight, and how I understood a mistake could've occurred due to the pine trees. I also mentioned to him that the two days the survey was being done, it was terribly rainy, too. I simply assumed there was an equipment error. Mark was condescending and unwilling to even consider that his company could be anything but infallible. It was a gross display of human interaction. After sighing and showing no sign of being interested in my questions or concerns of the $1,100 job his company did, he finally agreed that someone would come out, but it would take a week. He gave me 2 different days, (a Friday and the following Monday) that he would have someone come to recheck their line. He made it very clear that if the line was in fact, straight, he would charge me for that time. I assured him that it wouldn't be a problem because I'm not blind, and I know the difference between straight and snaked. We ended the conversation with the Friday and Monday on the schedule. Confirmed. Not surprisingly, the company was a no-show. No phone call. No excuse or apology. Nothing. They wasted my time. But, like I said, they already received $1,100 for the job. What do they care about professionalism after the fact? The check was cashed. This isn't the only platform receiving this information. The BBB is being contacted, as well. Please, if you need a survey done on your property, look for a reputable business. There is absolutely no excuse for these unethical practices to continue.

I recently needed to find a surveyor to perform a complete survey of a ~4 acre forested…read moremountainside property on which I live in a rural mountainous area, in large part because the landowner and I had realized that it had apparently been over 70 years since a really good/thorough professional survey had been done on the property, and also due to the fact that there are lots of ambiguities about the exact location of some of the property boundaries, which is not at all unusual for heavily-forested mountainside properties in rural areas. This company, Lavelle & Associates, was one of two local survey companies that I called in the hopes of finding a very good surveyor willing and able to do the job (the other company that I called never did call me back...). When I first called Lavelle, my call was routed to the phone of Dustin Lavelle, who, I had been told by a receptionist, was in charge of the survey division of the company (I learned a couple of days later, well after Dustin's return call, that he is the president of the company). My call to Dustin's extension on that first call rolled to voicemail b/c Dustin was not available, and I left him a brief VM introducing myself, explaining what I was looking for, and leaving my contact phone number. Dustin Lavelle called me back about 20 minutes later, and, after basic introductions both ways, he encouraged me to tell him more about the property and about the goals that the landowner and I had for the survey, a task which took at least five minutes. When I was done answering all of Dustin's questions and providing basic information, which means that we were already at least 6 minutes into the call, he then proceeded to take at least 47 additional minutes of his time to explain to me a number of things about the task at hand, including the following: -- he revealed to me that during the early minutes of our call, he had brought up on his computer screen some of the survey maps and other info about the property accrued in county and state records over the past 100+ years, and shared with me some of that information as needed. -- he then explained to me the various challenges that I would face in getting from the prospective survey all of the information that the landowner and I were seeking, simply due to the limitations of surveying rural heavily-forested mountainside properties, and also due to the known deficiencies of the reference points used in earlier surveys done on the property over the past 130+ years. -- he also explained the various challenges and problems that any good surveyor would face in performing a full survey of this type, and in delivering the various deliverables (new markers at all corners, markers at intervals along perimeters, a survey map showing the property lines with respect to a nearby road and creek, as well as depictions of the locations of driveway, house, well house, outhouse, and other key human-made structures/ infrastructure, etc.). -- he then gave me a ballpark range for the fee that any good surveyor would likely charge for the job, an estimate that was quite close to what I had predicted would be the fee range. -- he then proceeded to tell me -- and this is after having spent almost an hour of his time giving me what amounted to a very-high-quality graduate-school-level crash course (and I should know; I spent almost a decade of my life in grad school studying the sciences, and four years studying engineering at the university level...) in rural forested mountainside property surveying and the challenges thereof -- that while he was willing to remain in the background as my resource person, and while he would be willing to do the survey if no one else would do it, he wished to decline the job for now because he felt that he was not the most qualified person to do it. -- He instead referred me to a much smaller survey company in a small rural mountain town located in the same mountain range in which I live, telling me that they had far more experience with surveying this unique type of property than he had. (BTW, I called that company a few hours later, and within an hour of calling I hired that survey company that Dustin had so kindly recommended.) After Dusin's customized mini-graduate-level tele-course in mountainside surveying, along with recommendations, had ended, I was speechless with graditude and appreciation. I asked him if he would allow me to reimburse him by paying a consulting fee of at least $200 for all of the time and excellent advice that he had just given to me, but he absolutely refused my offer, telling me that what he had just done was simply part of his job as a professional, and it was all free of charge. Well, I am a professional myself (multi-disciplinary consulting & R&D scientist-engineer) and I can tell you that Dustin went well beyond the call of duty in assisting me, a prospective customer, and in ensuring that I would have only the best possible outcome! Amazing! Beyond 5 stars!

Of course I have all that - if you would like to see it before hiring him reach out to Eric Slate on Facebook. I am in Leesburg, VA. I hired David Rick Simpson in March of 2019 for survey and plat updates to my 8.5 acres farm in Leesburg, based on HomeAdvisor recommendation. Rick told me I was his first HomeAdvisor referral and he had just signed up for the service the week before. Rick initially was responsive and came out to put flags on the line. We had agreed to the price of $4000 for all work, and I had provided an initial down payment of $1000 for the work. Weeks went by with no contact and no update. I reached out for an update on several occasions and received various excuses for why the work was not complete including family emergencies. I gave the benefit of the doubt and agreed for him to continue the work. Rick asked for additional funds to help him complete the work in August of 2019; I provided a $1500 check. He came out for a few hours in late August. I contacted him in September to see when the work would be complete, again I received a family emergency excuse. It is now December 2019 and still the work is not complete - for $2500 I have a few flags on the property. I would not recommend this company for any work; there is no proactive communication and no adherence to agreed upon timelines or work completion. I feel that this individual and company have stolen money from me for work not completed.
