Maybe a way to salvage the relationship is to ask him to hire his own survey company and if your survey was wrong you will pay half his cost. Then you will probably have to offer to pay all the cost if your company was wrong. If it turns out you were wrong I would try and get a refund from your survey company.
The two of you should try and put back the markers. The agreement should be if the surveys are off by say a foot. Not an inch or two.
I would also give the survey paper work to the new company and tell them your problem and to confirm or dispute your survey in writing.
In short try and get the survey companies to answer the question and both of your be on the side of getting it correct.
Good luck
