What sets the price

Survey pricing in Florida is set per project, not from a rate card — by boundary research, fieldwork, recovery or establishment of the applicable property corners, marking the accessible corners, and preparation of a signed and sealed survey. It varies with the number of parcels, scope, location, access, vegetation, travel, and existing monumentation.

Published Florida government contracts for 2024–2026 put a two-person survey crew at $130–$281 per hour and a licensed surveyor at $136–$383 per hour. Source: negotiated rates in Florida city, county, special-district and FDOT contracts, 2024–2026.

General range for Jacksonville, not a quote. Older platted neighbourhoods often need corners re-established rather than simply recovered, which changes the figure — as do parcel count, scope, access, vegetation and travel.

Jacksonville Land Surveying FAQs

How much does a land survey cost in Jacksonville? +
There is no rate card. A survey in Jacksonville is priced per project by boundary research, fieldwork, recovering or establishing the applicable property corners, marking the accessible corners, and preparing a signed and sealed survey — and it moves with parcel count, scope, access, vegetation, travel and how much existing monumentation survives. For scale, published Florida government contracts for 2024–2026 put a two-person survey crew at $130–$281 per hour and a licensed surveyor at $136–$383 per hour (source: negotiated rates in Florida city, county, special-district and FDOT contracts, 2024–2026). What your project needs of those hours is what sets the price. These are general ranges rather than quotes — use our free cost calculator for rough orientation, or send us the address for an actual quote.
How long does a land survey take in Jacksonville? +
Most residential surveys in Jacksonville take 3–10 business days from scheduling to delivery. Boundary surveys: 3–7 days. ALTA surveys: 7–14 days. Elevation certificates: 3–5 days. Rush service is available for same-day or next-day field work with 24–48 hour delivery.
Do I need a survey to build a fence in Jacksonville? +
While Duval County doesn't require a survey for every fence, it is strongly recommended. A boundary survey identifies exact property lines and prevents disputes with neighbors — and it costs far less than moving a fence. If your fence encroaches on a neighbor's property, you may be required to remove it at your expense under Florida law.
What flood zone is my property in Jacksonville? +
Jacksonville has multiple FEMA flood zones including AE (base flood area), VE (coastal high hazard), and X (minimal risk). Use our free flood zone lookup tool to check your county, or call us for an elevation certificate to document your specific property's flood risk.
Is Apex Surveying licensed in Duval County? +
Yes. Apex Surveying & Mapping works under a Florida-licensed Professional Surveyor and Mapper (PSM) authorized to perform surveys anywhere in the state, including all of Duval County.
