A boundary survey is a process used to determine the precise location of a property's boundaries and any improvements on the property. The purpose of a boundary survey is to provide an accurate and legally defensible representation of the property's boundaries, which is essential for property transactions, construction projects, and land-use planning.
Boundary surveys are used to define the legal boundaries of a property, identify any encroachments or disputes, and establish the location of existing structures and improvements. It also includes the placement of markers, such as stakes or monuments, to indicate the property corners and boundaries. This information is crucial for property owners, real estate professionals, and developers to make informed decisions about their property.
At MCS Surveyors, we understand the importance of a boundary survey for homeowners. Whether you're looking to subdivide, extend, or improve your property in NSW, a boundary survey is a crucial step in the due diligence process. Our team of registered land surveyors will work to define the legal limits of your property, ensuring that the corners of your plot are clearly marked. This not only helps you avoid potential legal disputes with your neighbours or Council, but it also satisfies the requirements of your title and lending companies.

Contact UsAt MCS Surveyors, we understand the importance of accurately and precisely defining the boundaries of a property. That's why we offer comprehensive boundary survey services to our clients. Our team of experienced surveyors use the latest technology and techniques to recover, re-establish, or redefine the property corners of a parcel of land and correctly define the limits of the property in question through surveyor markers.
One of the key ways in which we ensure accuracy and precision in our boundary surveys is by using a system called "metes and bounds". This system is a method of describing land that identifies the land by its boundaries, not by its area. It's a way of describing a piece of land by stating the distance and direction of each of its boundaries. This system ensures that the lines of the property are identified with the highest level of accuracy and precision.
Our team also uses state-of-the-art equipment, such as GPS and laser technology, to ensure that our measurements are accurate and precise. We also carefully review and verify all data collected during the survey process to ensure that it meets our high standards for accuracy and precision.
