Samborski, Mattis, Inc. Professional Land Surveying Samborski, Mattis, Inc has become known for its excellence in surveying, beginning in 1936 when it was founded by F. C. Lang. Lang’s surveying notes were works of art in the careful crafting and detail that he included. He would survey entire blocks in order to be able to guarantee homeowners the location of their property. In 1944 William L. Samborski joined the firm followed by many years surveying Chicago and the North Shore alongside Lang. “Bill’s field notes were more industrial, closer to the perfect model of efficiency.” On a single project two, 4x6, field note pages, hold all of the details for fifty residential surveys! By 1960, when Bill became the owner of the firm, the tradition for detail had well been established. He continued to build a strong client base with his reputation for accuracy. In 1979 Bill decided it was time to retire at which point he sold the business to Michael Mattis Sr. Mattis began surveying in the hills of Pennsylvania, where, in his younger days, his field work on the Pennsylvania Turnpike returned outstanding accuracies. Upon his arrival in the Midwest, along with his wife, Patricia, he surveyed original government sections of land southwest of Chicago and did early survey work in a young town called Schaumburg. Since assuming ownership in 1979 he personally surveyed over forty-thousand commercial, residential and condominium properties from south of Chicago to the Wisconsin border. In 2005, after 25 years of ownership, he retired and handed the keys over to his sons, Michael Jr. and Daniel. Michael Jr., ‘practically a surveyor at birth’, had an early start in field experience, working weekends and summers throughout Jr High and High School. Michael Jr soon became a licensed Professional Land Surveyor. After more than 20 years experience in surveying Chicago and the North Shore, he has learned countless details and characteristics of the earlier surveyors, who subdivided the areas farms and towns into the properties that exist today. The wealth of information, generated from the old records and detailed field data, gathered since 1936, along with the knowledge and training passed down by its predecessors, allows Samborski, Mattis, Inc to honestly and accurately produce the quality surveys that they do today. |
