Why Property Surveys and Site Plans Matter

Screen Enclosures

April 05, 2025•2 min read

Why Property Surveys and Site Plans Matter for Your Screen Enclosure Project

If you’re planning to build a screen enclosure in Florida or Georgia, there’s more to the process than just choosing a design. One of the first and most important steps is providing a property survey or site plan — documents that are often required by your building department, HOA, and our engineering team before we can even begin construction.

What Is a Property Survey?

A property survey is a document that outlines the exact dimensions and boundaries of your lot. It also shows the location of your home, other structures, easements, and setbacks. Most importantly, it helps ensure your enclosure is built legally and in the correct position relative to your property lines.

What Is a Site Plan?

A site plan is a detailed drawing used in planning and permitting that shows how your proposed screen enclosure will fit within your property. It includes layout, measurements, and how the enclosure relates to other structures, property lines, and zoning requirements.

Note: Some building departments may prefer a property survey, while others require a site plan. It depends on your city’s specific permitting requirements — but don’t worry, we’ll help you determine exactly what’s needed for your location.

Why Are They Required?

Your city or county building department needs a survey or site plan to:

Verify the project meets local zoning and setback rules
Ensure structures aren’t built over easements or utilities
Confirm that the enclosure is within legal property boundaries

Your HOA may also require a copy of the survey or site plan to approve your application. And as your contractor, we need it to create accurate engineering plans and avoid delays during permitting.

What If I Don’t Have One?

If you don’t already have a recent property survey or site plan, don’t worry — we can help you get one. In fact, for a limited time, we’re covering the cost when you book a free consultation with us.

This is a critical part of the process that can’t be skipped. Getting it done early helps us:

Speed up permitting
Avoid surprises with HOA or city reviews
Keep your installation date on schedule
