Land Surveys

If you are buying or selling land, wanting to identify a boundary position or planning to build a new property, a land survey is the best place to start.

We pride ourselves on our accuracy, attention to detail and ability to meet clients' time frames. We only use the most sophisticated surveying equipment suited for the survey in hand and can undertake all types of land surveys from small parcels of land being transferred between neighbours to 100-acre estates.

Depending on your requirements, we can supply the following:

  • HM Land Registry compliant plans for title transfers and splitting of titles
  • Boundary disputes
  • Conveyancing plans
  • Topographical surveys
  • Ordnance Survey mapping
  • Setting out surveys

Our surveys are accepted first time, every time!

All of our surveys comply with the specifications and guidelines set out in “Measured surveys of land, buildings and utilities” published by the RICS and prepared by the Mapping and Positioning Practice Panel (MAPPP), the RICS Geomatics Professional Group and a specialist Measured Surveys Working Group. We also follow the HM Land Registry practice guide 40, so our plans are accepted the first time, every time!

Boundary Disputes

We create accurate site plans to assist in resolving boundary issues, which show the physical features on the ground and an opinion as to where we consider the legal boundary lies.

Following a site survey, using either conventional or laser measuring equipment, we will produce an accurate CAD site plan in paper and electronic format (PDF) followed by a report outlining our findings from the survey.

With expertise in mapping and measurement, a land surveyor’s work in a dispute involves accurate measurement of the area of dispute, assessment of available documentation and interpretation of how the documented boundary relates to existing features.

Working under RICS regulation and maintaining the RICS Code of Ethics, our calm and independent approach can provide both sides in a dispute with confidence in the reliability of the information that we provide, in circumstances in which there may be a breakdown in trust and communication between disputing parties. This can prove a great benefit in progressing to dispute resolution.

With a growing workload in this field, we deliver reports compatible with Civil Procedure Rules part 35 (CPR35), detailing the documentation that we have reviewed, our method of work and the conclusions that we have made from the information available.

The key to success in resolving disputes is to provide clear and informative plans that present factual information, and we pride ourselves in the quality and clarity of the plans that we produce.
