We are going to be putting some fences up. The guy that came out started before I got home. He walked me through everything. He was very friendly, and was willing to work with the neighbors as well. He got everything done, and I was content with the service provided. He got everything we needed marked. He always returned my calls fairly quickly.
Description of Work: They surveyed my property.

Description of Work: Bill came on a Sunday, worked quickly, and is very knowlegeable. Our requirement was for a property survey and a third floor deck survey, required by the City to replace an aging deck. The resulting survey was drawn the following day and sent to us immediately. Dobbs Fox price was way below competing surveyors!

Description of Work: Would highly recommend this company for surveying. Everyone said that having a survey done would not be worth the cost, but Dobbs Fox & Assoc made it affordable, was able to work within my time frame, was very responsive and made it an enjoyable experience.

Bill and his crew were a lot of fun. They had great attitude, seem to enjoy their job and did it well. Bill explained the results and the whole experience was terrific. When they needed to cut brush back he checked with me to make sure it was okay. Dobbs & Fox came recommended from another survey company which not taking any additional work at the time. Bill was able to work with my schedule and when he returned my initial call he had looked the property and already had enough information that he gave me the cost over phone, which was lower than I expected. It was a great service and well worth the price.
Description of Work: Did a survey of the property. Only one side of the property had a clear boundary.

I contacted several surveyors to help with a property survey of my property prior to installing a fence. This company was very competitive in price and responded to my query promptly. In the end, I choose the company recommended by the fence contractor. But this company was very close in price to that company. I will not hesitate to give this company another chance if I need a surveyor again. Thank you.

We called Bill and described what we wanted, and gave him our address - he wanted to come out to take a look before giving us a bid. About a day later, we got a call from him with the price, and some questions about the property - he was really interested in understanding some oddities about our lot. He came out about 3 days later to do the survey - it turned out to be very complicated (monuments paved over or moved, etc). Bill took a large number of measurements, including going deep into a ravine behind our house to find some old corners at the bottom of the creek. He went home to ponder what he had seen, and a day or two later came out to put in the corners He called us the next day and said he'd like to come to the house that weekend to review the map, since the survey had some less than obvious results. Every step of the way was very professional. I'd absolutely, positively hire Bill again for a survey.
Description of Work: We had a moderately complex residential lot backing onto a greenbelt which needed to be surveyed.

I called Bill and left a message. He was in Eastern Washington, but he called back the next day and got my address so he could start researching the property online. The local monuments on my street were paved over, but he was able to find them in the next development. Within 3 or 4 days, the property was surveyed, the corners were marked, and additional markers were placed along the long edges of the property. He placed taller stakes with pink tags and also put metal stakes in the ground so that we can find the line with a metal detector in the future.
Description of Work: Market corners and property lines of my one acre property.

Based on the difficulty, they really did a great job. I feel the price was definitely reasonable and they were altogether a quality company. They responded immediately and got the job done fast.

Called Bill and left a message. He returned the call in a timely manner and was able to get the surveying accomplished three days after our call. Arrived with his crew and monitored their work. We would definitely use him again and have referred our friends to him.

I left a message for Dobb/Fox & Associates and quickly received a call back from Bill Fox. After a phone conversation and then a quick email to Bill where I outlined a couple of options we were looking at, along with property information, he got back to me within hours with an estimate. We needed the survey complete within the next couple of weeks, and Bill was able to schedule and complete the request within that timeframe, without adding any 'expediting' charge (a couple other companies we asked for an estimate did have an additional charge for a 'rush' job). He and his surveying crew arrived on time for the appointment they had set, completed the work, and provided me and my architect with the hard-copy survey information, as well as electronic files required by my architect. All on time and for the quoted cost.
Description of Work: Performed a complete boundary survey of an entire lot ( 6100 ft sq) showing: all property corners, entire house footprint, location of all setbacks and all impervious surfaces.

Our experiences with Dobbs/Fox occurred over approximately a twelve-month period. In one instance, they were contacted on fairly short notice, but made the necessary scheduling arrangements to ensure that their work could be completed in a manner that ensured continued work on the construction of our home.
Description of Work: Dobbs/Fox provided us with a series of services. Initially, they provided boundary and cursory topographical surveys. As construction was about to commence, they provided a detailed topographical survey as well as specific "lot points" to ensure that the foundations was positioned correctly on the site.
