I was referred by my title company. I ordered a location drawing from Duley, and was thoroughly impressed by their quick service. I called on Monday, they came out Wednesday and delivered the drawing on Thursday morning. Out of the many surveyors in the area, they had the best rapport and provided the best guidance. I also appreciate the fact that they will credit you the amount paid for the drawing if you order a boundary survey within a year of ordering a location drawing. read more

I am so glad I used Duley and Associates for my stake and boundary survey when I purchased my new house. They provide the best customer service and treat you like an important customer. A special thanks to Chris for all the help getting my shed permit site plan after the initial survey was finished. I highly recommend Duley and Associates for all your survey needs. read more

We just went to settlement and the title company was gushing over the quick service. And our agent was totally impressed by your addition of her photo to the header of the survey. And needless to say, we were ALL totally impressed by the laminated copy of the survey...fantastic touch! As if we didn't rave about Duley & Assoc. enough already, we will continue to tell everyone we know how awesome your company is...you are the best! It is truly a pleasure to do business with your company. read more

A general summary of the issue is here: When I purchased the property in Maryland, I was not aware of an easement other than the city public services easement along the road.  The survey by Duley and Associates did not reveal an additional easement that I feel I should have found out about during the process of purchasing this property.  The title research done by Mid Atlantic Services did not reveal this easement that was recorded at the court house. The $2700 title insurance purchased through Mid Atlantic Settlement Services with a company called Title Resources had exceptions for nearly everything (what does it cover?) and didn't cover this case. Knowing what I know now, I would have been tempted to leave my earnest money on the table and find a different house.  I am having difficulty with the easement and being able to utilize 10% of the property surface area (2000ft^2 out of 20,000ft^2), or approximately $20,000 worth of the property, on account of a sewer easement with right of way.  My neighbor would have me do nothing but mow the lawn and pay ~$600 a year in taxes for the priveledge of safe-guarding his sewer line.  Oh - i would have to pay Duley surveying $700 more to come stake out the easement that they should have found in the first place - irony abounds. I may have to go to court to settle the issue with my neighbor; I'd like to use this property for my dog to roam about on with an electronic dog fence for starters, and then for gardening and install of a french drain eventually.  I believe the title insurance claim should have been able to help with the legal problems I am experiencing in addition to the loss of value in the property.  I tried to get some assistance filing a title insurance claim against the title insurance I purchased through your company for about $2700.  Despite the seemingly frequent outlay of money for title insurance, it took 3 weeks to get some help to submit a claim.  I read the policy and then sent in a 'prompt notification' letter so I didn't lose the ability to submit a claim.  MASC did elevate the issue to their President, which was a little helpful, after about 3 weeks, but to no avail because of the title insurance companies exceptions. I'd be very careful selecting a title insurance company, ask lots of questions about easements and who is it exactly that goes to the courthouse to research this title, what if they are wrong or miss something? What is that pvc pipe sticking up in the yard and on the survey? Whose is that? Is that an easement? read more

Our first experience with Duley was when we were purchasing our home in Rockville. In looking at the settlement documents, we thought the survey fees were a bit high. We called Duley and sure enough, we were able to save quite a bit by going with them. Their service was fast and efficient. We used them again recently while doing an addition. We wanted to ensure we were outside of the setback lines from our property line. Again, Duley was reasonably priced and came out to the property quickly to keep the construction project on time. Chris was great to work with and accommodating to our schedule. I definitely recommend Chris and the folks at Duley for land surveying services! read more

Duley and Associates were recommended to me and I couldn't have been more pleased with their prompt service and great prices.

I had received a letter from FEMA stating my flood insurance would be going up every year 5-18 percent unless I had a survey done. I called Duley and Associates, and every single person I spoke with at the company was friendly and professional. They scheduled my survey, called me the day before to confirm, called me the morning of to say they were on the way. When he arrived, he went over things that may also lower my flood insurance rate. He sent me my report the same day. I can not thank them enough for their professionalism and friendly service. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a survey done. read more
