The short answer

Land Surveys in Price, Utah.

Ludlow Engineering is a licensed land surveying and civil engineering firm in Nephi, about an hour and a half from Price. In Price we’ve done boundary surveys and parcel combinations, ALTA/NSPS surveys for commercial property, a survey and site plan, FEMA elevation certificates and foundation design. Our engineer has also served as engineer of record on state facilities in town.

Every boundary survey is stamped by a Utah PLS and filed with the Carbon County Surveyor, and every job is quoted as a fixed fee, with travel shown separately.

02 · Local knowledge

What Makes Surveying in Price Different

A coal-country city grid, a river through town and acreage on every side.

  • Old city blocks. Price grew from a townsite of large blocks, like the Block 30 lot on our 2012 ALTA. After a century of splits, fences and deeds rarely match the plat exactly.
  • Section-described parcels. Much of Price outside the original blocks is described by section, like our 2025–2026 boundaries in Sections 15 and 16, so section and quarter corners come first.
  • Combining and splitting. Older properties often sit on several parcels. Combining them into one description, as we did in 2026, simplifies permits, sales and taxes.
  • The Price River. Low ground along the river and its washes can be in a FEMA flood zone, which affects building and insurance.
  • Commercial and public work. Lenders on commercial property want ALTA surveys, and state and mining projects need engineering, both of which we’ve done in Price.

Price Survey Questions, Answered.

How much does a land survey cost in Price?

A boundary survey on a recorded subdivision lot typically runs $1,025 to $1,800, and an older Price city lot $1,800 to $2,500 or more. Parcels of 1 to 5 acres usually run $2,000 to $4,000, and larger tracts more. Topographic surveys run $1,500 to $4,500, ALTA/NSPS surveys $3,000 to $8,000 or more, and elevation certificates $400 to $700. Travel is shown as its own line on every fixed-fee quote.

Do you really survey in Price from Nephi?

Yes. Price is about an hour and a half from our office. We completed three Price boundary surveys in 2025 and 2026, and we work regularly around Scofield, Helper and Spring Glen, so we group trips to keep travel down.

How long does a survey take in Price?

Most boundary surveys take one to three weeks from approval, and ALTA surveys three to six weeks from receipt of the title commitment. Tell us your deadline when you ask for a quote.

Is my survey filed with Carbon County?

Yes. Utah law requires a boundary survey map to be filed with the county surveyor within 90 days of establishing or re-establishing a boundary (Utah Code § 17-73-504). For Price that's the Carbon County Surveyor, in Price.

Can you combine or split parcels in Price?

Yes. In 2026 we surveyed and wrote a single new description combining parcels in Section 16. We handle lot splits, combinations and new descriptions, with engineering by J. Brett Ludlow, PE, when the city requires it.

Is my Price property in a flood zone?

Low ground along the Price River and its washes can be in a FEMA-mapped flood zone. We prepare elevation certificates in Price and Spring Glen; see our flood elevation certificate page.

Do you do commercial ALTA surveys in Price?

Yes. We've completed ALTA/NSPS surveys for commercial property in Price, and our engineer has served as engineer of record on state facilities in town.
