To design and build any structure with confidence, you need to know the lay of the land – literally. That means having the information you need, in a format, you can work with. Accurate ground and feature data are essential for the efficient planning and design of development works.
Whether you’re building a house, planning a large-scale subdivision or designing infrastructure a quality topographical survey is imperative. Any designer will tell you that a quality design depends on quality information – and not all topographic surveys are equal.
Our Topographical site surveys measure ground contours and record site features such as buildings, trees, fences, spot heights, public drainage services and other service locations, the boundary with occupations etc and can be customised to your end needs. Above picture shows a sample of our topographical plans.
We have the latest survey equipment and software, which assists our staff to produce top quality topographical site plans of your land. The plan produced will assist you, your architect and engineer to accurately design your project. We will provide you with a compatible price with the earliest time for field survey followed by the final plan in a few days later. Please fill the Request a Quote form and give us required information about your project.
A survey locating topographic features – natural and man-made, such as buildings, improvements, fences, elevations, trees, streams, contours of the land, etc.
It really depends on the availability of survey information in the area, the extent of the land, the slope and amount of vegetation in the land and some other factors. We at Survplanz provide a table for calculating the price of a Topographical Survey. You can find this table in Pricing Page.

This type of survey may be required by a Council or may be used by engineers and/or architects for the design of improvements or developments on a site. Whether you’re building a house, planning a large-scale subdivision or designing infrastructure a quality topographical survey is imperative.

We use a very good quality and modern equipment which helps us to increase our speed and accuracy but generally, fieldwork normally takes 1 or 2 days for most of the normal site surveys.
You will complete the request a quote form and explain what is your requirement. We’ll use our different software to collect required survey, and title information and also we’ll use google earth and google street view to see how your site looks like. then we’ll come back to you with our fee proposal. If you wish us to proceed based on a provided fee proposal, we’ll send you engagement form for your approval. immediately after that, we’ll arrange the fieldwork date. We’ll come to the site on a date we agreed and complete the fieldwork. Now the first stage is done, we only need a few days to process your plan and send it to you.
We are working outside of the building and there is no need for you to be at home, However, we need you to be at home if you need to unlock the gates, or restrain your dog/s.
We’ll send you a PDF file and also a DWG file which is work for ACAD 2000 and above. Some architect also needs ACAD 3d or Tin file, that we can provide them as well without any extra cost.
