Land Development

Thompson Surveying is a Quality Accredited Company in Surveying & Land Development

Land Surveying

The subdivision of land for urban  development  can be an attractive and potentially rewarding business proposition, but at times the development process is technical, complicated and has hidden traps for the unwary.

At Thompson Surveying, we are highly experienced in all methods of subdivisions to create a couple of lots through to fully serviced lots within stages in major residential estates. Our team will work through every step of the urban development  process with you from drawing board to completion. Over the years, we have developed excellent working relationships with local authorities, the Ministry for Planning and other government bodies so we can offer you expert advice and ensure your application is professionally presented.

Our Services Include Planning and Surveying for the following subdivision methods:

  • Freehold (Green Title)
  • Built & Vacant Strata
  • Survey Strata

Re-establishment Surveys

Re-establishment surveys define the legal boundaries of a parcel of land and are required for:

  • The set-out of a house within a lot or improvements such as erecting a fence or retaining walls
  • The installation of services such as fibre optic cables, sewerage and power along a street boundary alignment
  • Locating the position of existing improvements relative to a boundary which may include the identification of an encroachment.

Cadastral Surveys

We have experienced Licensed Surveyors for all projects requiring cadastral surveys. These Include:

  • Large scale rural reestablishment surveys or subdivisions
  • Road widening for local authorites
  • Creation of interest-only plans to protect rights of access to services or property.
  • Crown land surveys to subdivide or amalgamate land to state owned land.

Strata Surveys

Strata surveys vary from vineyard estates to multi-story commercial complexes. We offer a wealth of expertise for residential, commercial, industrial, and rural developments, and will professionally manage any project through to  the creation of Titles. Our detailed understanding of the Strata Titles Act makes sure that all legal and technical requirements will be  met.

Our team will manage  your  entire  project from inception to completion  and oversee every stage of the development process.
