Detail and Contour Survey
A detail and contour survey shows the shape of the land and what’s on it. This includes features like trees, fences, retaining walls, driveways, and existing structures. It’s often the first survey you need before starting a new home, extension, or council application. We provide clear survey plans for Sydney builders, architects, and homeowners.
When Do You Need a Detail and Contour Survey?
- Submitting a Development Application (DA) to your local council
- Planning a new home, duplex, or small residential build
- Designing a renovation or house extension
- Confirming ground levels, fences, trees, and existing features
- Giving your builder or architect accurate site data
