Maywood is a west-suburban village of roughly 23,500 residents entirely within Proviso Township, bordering the Des Plaines River. On its older, closely spaced lots, a plat of survey is frequently the key to resolving boundary and setback questions.
A plat of survey is a drawing, signed and sealed by a licensed Illinois land surveyor, that locates the corners and boundary lines of your lot and depicts the buildings, driveways, fences and recorded easements on the property. It is the document lenders, title companies and municipal permit desks rely on.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your closing or permit.
Maywood, home to about 23,500 residents in Proviso Township, lies along the Des Plaines River in the near-west suburbs. Plats of survey and deeds are recorded at the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which consolidated the former Recorder of Deeds functions in December 2020. The village’s older residential blocks have seen decades of fences, garages, and additions, so a survey often clarifies how those improvements relate to the recorded lines and easements. Because the Des Plaines River runs through the area, riverside parcels should be reviewed against FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas in the MWRD-managed watershed, which can be significant for building plans and flood insurance.
