## Surveying Ridgehaven Since Before the O-Bahn Was Built

Ridgehaven grew rapidly from the late 1960s across land that rolls gently toward the Para Hills escarpment. Its orderly street grid of 550–800 m² allotments, post-1970 brick veneer homes, and drainage easements through the terrain present a specific set of surveying challenges that our team knows intimately. With 20+ years of combined experience across the City of Tea Tree Gully, we handle everything from a quick boundary check before a fence goes up to full two-lot subdivisions.

## Our Services in Ridgehaven

### Boundary Survey

Re-establishes all four corners, verifies dimensions against title, and identifies easements. Includes level data along boundaries on sloped lots — essential for retaining walls and fences on grade.

### Detail Survey

Full site capture: dwelling, outbuildings, retaining walls, trees, services, and contour data. CAD output compatible with all design platforms — ready for council lodgement on sloping blocks.

### Land Subdivision

End-to-end subdivision for Ridgehaven's larger lots: detail survey for the DA, coordination with Tea Tree Gully Council, and final cadastral survey to create new titles.

### Construction Set-Out

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Do Ridgehaven properties need contour surveys for sloping lots?**

Yes. Parts of Ridgehaven feature gentle to moderate slopes, and a contour detail survey is essential for any renovation, extension or new build. We capture spot heights and produce CAD contour plans that architects and engineers need for drainage design and footings.

**How long does a boundary survey take in Ridgehaven?**

Most boundary surveys in Ridgehaven are completed within 3–5 business days. We re-establish or confirm all boundary pegs, check dimensions against the title plan, identify easements, and provide a clear plan showing setbacks to existing structures.

**What are typical subdivision survey costs for a two-lot split in Ridgehaven?**

The surveying component for a two-lot subdivision — detail survey plus cadastral survey — generally ranges from $4,500 to $7,000 depending on slope and complexity. We provide a fixed quote before work begins so there are no surprises.

**Can you set out a new build on a sloping block in Ridgehaven?**

Absolutely. Construction set-out on sloping sites requires careful establishment of building corners and floor levels to manage cut-and-fill volumes and meet council setback requirements. Our surveyors work with builders before slab or footings begin.

**My boundary pegs have gone missing — what can I do?**

Missing pegs are common in Ridgehaven's established streets. We perform an identification survey using historical records and connections to nearby survey marks to re-establish your corners, usually within 2–3 business days.
