Surveying
Our skilled team of professional, licensed cadastral surveyors will deliver accurate survey information to a high standard using the latest processes and technology.
In the town planning, construction and property development sectors, the role of the land surveyor is crucial. We are responsible for accurately determining section boundaries which then determine the positioning of everything on the surveyed lot including roads, drainage and buildings. That’s why you want an Auckland surveyor you can rely on.
