ALTA/NSPS LAND TITLE SURVEYS & ALTA/NSPS AS-BUILT LAND SURVEYS
Our team of experienced land surveyors is equipped to handle various types of land surveys, ensuring accurate and reliable results. Whether you require an ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey or an ALTA/NSPS As-Built Land Survey, we have the expertise to meet your needs.
​
-
ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey: Our land surveyors can perform detailed ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys to assist in the commercial real estate process. These surveys provide essential information about the boundaries, easements, encroachments, and other relevant features of a property.
​​
-
ALTA/NSPS As-Built Land Survey: If you need to determine any improvements or changes that have been made to a piece of land, our surveyors can conduct ALTA/NSPS As-Built Land Surveys. These surveys capture the existing conditions of a property, including structures, utilities, and other relevant features.
BOUNDARY SURVEYS
Homeowners and mortgage lenders alike often require boundary surveys to protect their investment and avoid legal disputes. That's why it’s important that survey work is completed by a licensed land surveyor. If you’re a property owner selling, buying, subdividing, or refinancing, McMillen Engineering, Inc. can conduct your boundary survey for you.
We also work with banks to ensure that setback and zoning requirements are met for residential or commercial purposes. Land modification projects like adding a fence or a building should also begin with a boundary survey to locate corners and property boundary lines.
TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEYS
McMillen Engineering, Inc. also completes topographic land surveys to identify natural and man-made land attributes and elevations. The results from these topographic surveys are used by our civil engineers to accurately prepare design work. If you’re already working with an engineering firm but require a topographic survey, we could conduct the survey and provide those results to you.
PA FLOOD ELEVATION CERTIFICATE
Our surveyors can conduct a floodplain survey to determine whether your property is located within a specified flood zone. These surveys are essential to assess the risk and provide accurate data to insurance companies and stakeholders. A PA Flood Elevation Certificate may be provided to you (if applicable) to assist you with defining your flood insurance policy and cost.
STANDARDS OF PRACTICE FOR PROFESSIONAL LAND SURVEYORS IN PA

Terry McMillen, Jr. served as the President of the Pennsylvania Society of Land Surveyors (PSLS) in 2022. He sat on the Standards of Practice Committee during that time and contributed to the development of the Standards of Practice for Professional Land Surveyors in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
These standards were established to assist all professional land surveyors with providing excellence in their practice "with consideration for the health, safety, and welfare of the public."
