Wilkerson & Associates Engineers & Surveyors

[To assist us in bringing this matter to a close, you must give us a reason why you are rejecting the responseIf no reason is received your complaint will be closed as Answered] ? Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because:Of course we wouldn't expect Wilkerson to own up to their mistakes? Why would they as that would mean they would have to be responsible for the costs associated with moving the driveway that encroached onto the neighboring property and ? to correct their error? They have surveyed this property numerous times and all times they said the? driveway was shown within our property lines on their drawings? The driveway has been in place years and Wilkerson has surveyed the property again multiple times during this time period showing that the driveway was within our property lines which means that they were in error every time? Another words the driveway was installed and surveyed by Wilkerson several times and after the installation they indicated the driveway WAS WITHIN our property lines? ? They need to own up to their error and assist with the damages? Chris is the one who agreed that Wilkerson was wrong (even one of their attorneys reviewed the documents and admitted they were wrong) and that they would re-survey it (not at a cost) but to confirm that their drawings were accurate vsCOA's? Now they are back peddling and not owning up to or admitting their negligence? (Please also note that these survey's state that a person by Wilkerson certified that the drawings are accurate and have a state seal)? Had we known Wilkerson was going to charge us (to re-survey for them to determine if COA or they were wrong in the survey accuracy then we would not have agreed to using them? However we gave them the opportunity to prove themselves? Besides giving us a bill (this is an insult) because they determined that they were wrong? I am not responsible for their errors? So basically we are paying for them to be wrong twice - their errors on their ? surveys and then having to relocate the driveway due to their errors? As stated the apron of the driveway has never been moved and they have certified it was accurately installed within the property lines numerous times? One would think that for as many times that they surveyed that they should have caught their error? Wilkerson just does not want to own up to their mistake and what is interesting is that their survey that they are billing us for actually matches COA's? Now why is that? Once again the driveway has never been moved and only proves that they were in error by COA and themselves? So Wilkerson own up to your errors as you have done this to many other homeowners Regards, [redacted] ***

I have received your letter dated July 27, 2016 concerning the above referenced case. I read what [redacted] said in this letter and as per my previous letter and according to our field notes all work was done right. I also checked the drawing that [redacted] is referring to. While the drawing reflect the entire driveway is within the property the field work that was done at that time shows the driveway was not built within the property at the entrance. At that time the purpose of a house location or wall check was merely for the location of the house within the property. Again we stand by our work on this property and the property markers have been set properly. We do not know why the driveway was constructed wrong at the entrance while all the property markers found checked good and the entire driveway was built within the boundary of this lot. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me.Sincerely,Ronald *. J[redacted], P.E.
