HomeServicesBoundary Dispute Surveys › Joliet, IL

As Will County’s seat and largest city, Joliet mixes century-old neighborhoods with newer subdivisions, and the two record their lot lines very differently. Older blocks often rely on deeds and monuments that predate modern survey standards, while recent developments raise fresh questions about where a platted line actually falls on the ground. A boundary dispute survey retraces those lines from the deed record and physical evidence so a fence, driveway, or addition can be placed with confidence.

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.

Joliet & Will County specifics

Joliet is home to roughly 150,000 residents and sits mostly within Joliet Township, spilling into Troy and Plainfield townships and a small part of Kendall County. As the Will County seat, it hosts the county government offices, and deeds, plats, and prior surveys for local parcels are filed with the Will County Recorder of Deeds. The Des Plaines, DuPage, and Kankakee Rivers converge near the city, so many properties sit close to FEMA-mapped flood corridors where line placement matters for both encroachment and elevation questions. A retracement survey grounded in that recorded history is the reliable way to settle a fence or encroachment disagreement here.

What Joliet-area clients say

Frequently asked questions

It begins with pulling your deed and any prior plats or surveys recorded with the Will County Recorder of Deeds, then locating monuments and physical evidence in the field. A licensed Illinois Professional Land Surveyor reconciles that record with what exists on the ground to mark where your property line actually runs.

Yes. A boundary retracement identifies the true property line based on deed research and recovered monuments, which shows whether a fence, shed, or driveway crosses onto either parcel and gives both owners an objective basis for resolving the disagreement.

They often do. When a boundary or encroachment matter may head toward litigation, attorneys rely on a licensed surveyor’s retracement and mapped evidence to support their client’s position.
