About

About

A title re-establishment survey (also known as a boundary survey) is undertaken by a Licensed Land Surveyor to accurately identify and mark the legal boundaries of a property in accordance with title documents and statutory requirements.

Legal boundaries often differ from the location of existing fences, walls or other physical features. Over time, structures can shift, be replaced or incorrectly positioned, creating uncertainty and potential risk. A title re-establishment survey removes that uncertainty by determining the true title boundaries based on historical records, field evidence and precise measurement.

These surveys are essential when building near boundaries, constructing new fences, resolving disputes, preparing for subdivision, or supporting planning and development approvals. By clearly defining your property limits, a re-establishment survey protects your investment, reduces the risk of encroachment and provides a reliable foundation for future works.
