Berwyn is famous for its dense grid of narrow bungalow lots, and on blocks that tight, even a few inches matters. Gangways, fences and garages sit so close to the line that a small encroachment can spark a real dispute between adjoining owners. Retracing the true boundary from the original plat and the evidence on the ground is how those questions get answered.
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.
With about 57,250 residents packed into its own Berwyn Township, the city is one of the more densely built communities in Cook County. Its signature narrow lots and shared gangways leave little room for error, so fence lines and garage placements are frequent flashpoints between neighbors. The recorded plats and deeds that a retracement depends on are held by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. Because the lots are so tight, recovering the actual corner monuments and comparing them to the record is essential to determining the line with confidence.

They are, because gangways, fences and detached garages sit within inches of the line on Berwyn’s compact bungalow blocks. A boundary dispute survey pins down exactly where the platted line runs so a small encroachment can be measured precisely instead of estimated.
Yes. A boundary survey sealed by an Illinois Professional Land Surveyor and backed by the deed and plat research is prepared as defensible evidence and can be used by attorneys or presented in court.
The survey does not rely on who built the fence; it relies on the recorded plat and the monuments in the ground. If the fence sits off the true line, the survey documents that clearly, giving you an objective basis to resolve the matter.
