Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a boundary marking survey used for?

    A boundary marking survey is used to physically identify the legal edges of a property. Surveyors review land titles and historical data, then mark out the corners and boundary lines using survey pegs or similar markers. These surveys are vital before installing fences, building structures close to a boundary or resolving disputes with neighbours. They ensure your property work stays within legal boundaries and avoids costly corrections later.

  • Is a boundary survey legally binding?

    While a boundary survey itself doesn’t change legal ownership, it provides a professionally certified interpretation of your property’s legal boundaries. If done by a licensed surveyor, the results can be used as official evidence in legal proceedings or council submissions. The plans generated can be registered with appropriate authorities and serve as the basis for easements or development approvals.

  • How do I know if I need a boundary survey?

    You should consider a boundary survey if you're unsure where your property ends, especially before building fences, retaining walls or new structures near a lot line. They're also important when subdividing land, creating easements, or buying and selling property—particularly in areas where titles are unclear or existing boundaries haven’t been formally surveyed in years.
