FQA

What is a boundary survey?

A boundary survey identifies the legal boundaries of a property and shows where those boundaries sit on the ground.

This can include locating existing survey marks, replacing missing marks where required, checking title information, measuring the property and confirming the position of boundaries in relation to fences, buildings, retaining walls or other improvements.

One of the most common misunderstandings property owners have is assuming that the fence line is always the legal boundary. In many cases, fences are close to the boundary, but not always exactly on it.

A boundary survey gives you certainty before you build, buy, sell or make changes to your land..

When do you need a land or boundary survey?

You may need a boundary survey if you are:

  • Building or replacing a fence

  • Planning a shed, pool, carport or house extension

  • Buying or selling a property

  • Unsure where your boundary pegs are

  • Concerned that a fence or structure is in the wrong position

  • Dealing with a neighbour boundary issue

  • Subdividing or adjusting a boundary

  • Building close to a property boundary

  • Needing accurate boundary information for a certifier, builder or designer

In Townsville, this is especially useful for older properties where fences, additions and structures may have been in place for many years without the legal boundary being checked.
