Fencing and retaining walls
Discuss boundary location before committing to work near a property edge.
Understand the boundary before you build.
Boundary Surveys & Marking Auckland
THE PURPOSE
Understand the boundary before you build.
A fence or garden edge is not necessarily the legal property boundary. Boundary survey work connects available survey records with field measurements and relevant survey marks. Tell us which part of your property you need clarified and why.
When to discuss this survey
Buying, selling or planning
Identify the boundary information you need for the property decision rather than relying on an aerial image alone.
Missing or uncertain marks
Let us know where pegs appear missing, damaged or inconsistent with the boundary you expect.
YOUR DELIVERABLES
Agree the information
your team needs.
Boundary location and marking are scoped for the relevant part of your site. Agree what will be marked and what survey documentation you require. If your concern involves a disagreement or possible encroachment, explain that in your brief so the appropriate next step can be discussed.
SCOPING YOUR QUOTE
What affects survey cost?
We quote for your site and agreed deliverables. A site address, current plans and a short brief help us assess the work. These factors shape the scope; they are not a fixed price list.
- Extent of the boundary to investigate
- Available survey records and existing marks
- Terrain, vegetation and safe access
- Marking and documentation required
Common questions
Can I use a fence as the boundary?
Do not assume a fence follows the legal boundary. Ask us to discuss the survey information needed before relying on its position.
What should I send?
The property address, the boundary of concern, your reason for the survey, any existing plans and useful site photographs.
Is this the same as building setout?
No. Boundary work concerns the property boundary. Construction setout marks agreed design positions and levels. Some projects need both.
