FAQs
Our technically qualified personnel are capable of providing expertise across a wide range of spatial disciplines.
We pride ourselves on being friendly and approachable with a country attitude as we understand that often what we do or can do is misunderstood and sometimes very confusing to most people. Often we deal with people using a surveyor for the first and only time and we aim to provide as much information as we can and make the experience as simplistic as possible.

We would recommend that the cost of a survey represents a very small percentage of the investment you are about to make. It would be wise to have a survey done before you sign any contract to determine if, in fact, any problems do exist. You could also sign a contract subject to satisfactory outcome of a boundary survey. We have found many instances where properties have been bought without survey and encroachments later discovered that subsequently involves expensive remedies.
Most Councils will require you to have a survey done in these circumstances as a condition of building approval. However, it is recommended that this is done in all instances to avoid the possibility of building onto your neighbour's land and cause the building to encroach over the boundary. The remedies to encroachments can be expensive and complicated. They can also cause much ill-feeling between neighbours.
The Fences Act sets out the legal protocol that neighbours should adopt in the cases of erecting new fences. It does not set out the protocol for having a boundary survey done. However, these costs can be mutually agreed to between neighbours along with the fence costs. A survey would avoid future boundary disputes and give you "peace of mind". It is also wise to note that the local council will not enter into neighbours boundary disputes.
