Markham’s residential neighborhoods sit on a mix of older and mid-century lots where fences have been set, replaced, and re-set over many years. Each of those cycles risks moving the fence off the deeded line, and eventually a neighbor notices the discrepancy. Establishing the real boundary requires a retracement built on the recorded plat and the monuments in the ground.
A boundary dispute survey is a careful retracement of your property lines, backed by research of deeds, prior surveys and physical evidence. It gives you — and, if needed, your attorney — a defensible determination of where the true boundary lies.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
About 11,700 residents live in Markham, which spans Bremen and Thornton townships in south-suburban Cook County. Its established housing stock, on modest lots, makes side-yard and fence-line questions a recurring issue when properties change hands or owners plan improvements. A defensible answer comes from researching the plat and deed history through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, then recovering the corner monuments in the field. Comparing that record to the fences and structures on the ground pins down where the boundary truly runs. Homeowners and their attorneys rely on the determination to resolve the dispute.
Official resources for Markham property owners
A boundary dispute survey retraces your deeded line and reports where the fence sits relative to it, replacing guesswork with a measured, documented determination.
Markham is in Cook County, so deeds and plats are recorded through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, where we retrieve the records that support the survey.
Not by itself. Long occupation can differ from the deeded line, and the survey determines the true boundary from the record and monuments as the starting point for any dispute.
