The other builders had removed most of the survey pegs. Went we went and really looked (actually had to take a shovel as there was grass grown over one side) were were able to locate the boundary markers in the ground. We were then able to put the marker back next to the boundary marker Re: How to find missing pegs on the boundary? 10Aug 28, 2011 9:32 pm Went to do some digging this Sunday and finally found the boundary pegs !!! They are buried under the ground next to the markers, had to really dig around the markers to find them. Thanks everyone for your help !!! The builder should have no reason to charge me for re-surveying now. Re: How to find missing pegs on the boundary? 11Aug 28, 2011 9:38 pm Thats great. For others who might have the same problem it might be worth knowing that normally its sufficient to find three pegs rather than all four. The Harder You Try - the Luckier You Get !

The builder should have no reason to charge me for re-surveying now. That is awesome news. It's a pain in the butt to do all that digging and searching but well worth int knowing you found them and that you don't have to pay for it to get re-surveyed. Re: How to find missing pegs on the boundary? 14Sep 01, 2011 10:01 pm We have the same issue with our block and i need to go out to the block on the weekend to find the boundary markers. The builders say they also need a current pegging plan does anyone know what this is or are they trying to justify the $800 they want to charge to re-survey?
