HomeServicesBoundary Dispute Surveys › Island Lake, IL

Island Lake wraps around its namesake lake across two counties, and its compact lakeside lots often place fences, docks, and seawalls close to shared lines along an irregular shoreline. A retracement survey ties the deed and recorded plat to the monuments to show the true boundary. That evidence resolves the shoreline question on the facts.

What a boundary dispute survey provides

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.

Island Lake & Lake County specifics

Island Lake, with about 8,051 residents, lies within Wauconda Township in Lake County, whose seat is Waukegan (the village extends into McHenry County). For the Lake County portion, deeds, plats, and prior surveys are filed with the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office, and confirming the governing county is part of the retracement. Compact lakeside lots here put shoreline structures and fences close to the line along irregular water edges, driving boundary questions. Pi Surveying recovers the lakeside monuments and stakes the recorded line so a shoreline fence question is settled from the record.

What Island Lake-area clients say

Frequently asked questions

Records sit in the county that contains your parcel, so we confirm whether your Island Lake lot is in Lake or McHenry before pulling the deeds and plats for the survey.

They can, because compact lots and irregular shorelines put fences, docks, and seawalls near the line. A retracement shows where the recorded boundary falls relative to those features.

The Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office in Waukegan holds the deeds, plats, and prior surveys for the Lake County section.
