That dual-council boundary runs right through the suburb — meaning surveying work here requires fluency with two planning regimes, different minimum allotment standards, and terrain that can shift from a flat suburban street to a steep gully within a single block. With 20+ years of combined experience on both sides of that boundary, City Surveyors Adelaide is one of the few surveying practices that knows Rostrevor inside out. Dual-council boundary and planning expertise Slope-aware detail surveys for architect renovations Subdivision feasibility on larger hillside allotments Split-level construction set-out ## Our Services in Rostrevor ### Boundary Survey Ground movement, tree root activity, and decades of retaining wall construction regularly displace boundary pegs in Rostrevor. We re-establish corners from cadastral history and permanent marks, verify dimensions, and identify all easements including creek floodplain overlays. [Learn more](/boundary-survey/) ### Detail Survey Rostrevor's architect-designed homes on steeply terraced sites demand thorough detail surveys. We capture multi-level retaining walls, pools, split-level structures, native vegetation, and full contour data — delivered as a geo-referenced CAD file. [Learn more](/detail-survey/) ### Land Subdivision We assess feasibility against the applicable council's planning code, complete the detail survey for your DA, and carry out the final cadastral survey and plan sealing — navigating Campbelltown and Adelaide Hills requirements where both apply. [Learn more](/land-subdivision-adelaide/) ### Construction Set-Out Split-level foundations and significant earthworks are the norm for new builds in Rostrevor. We establish building corners, offset control lines, and AHD floor levels with millimetre precision, coordinating directly with your builder around earthworks schedules.

Accurate level data ensures retaining walls, drainage, and building footings are designed to the correct heights, avoiding costly errors during construction. **Does Rostrevor fall under the Adelaide Hills Council area?** Parts of eastern Rostrevor fall within the Adelaide Hills Council boundary. We can confirm which council governs your specific allotment and advise on how that affects survey and subdivision requirements under each council's planning policy. **Can I subdivide my Rostrevor property?** Subdivision potential depends on allotment size, slope, frontage, and which council area applies. Larger, flatter lots in the Campbelltown section can often support a two-lot division. We carry out the detail survey for your Development Application and manage the full process through to new titles. **What detail survey information does a Rostrevor renovation require?** Our Rostrevor detail surveys capture the dwelling, all outbuildings, retaining walls, terraced gardens, trees, fences, driveways, and full contour data at 0.5 m intervals. The CAD output gives your architect everything needed for a compliant design on a complex sloping site. **How quickly can you complete a boundary survey in Rostrevor?** Standard boundary surveys in Rostrevor are completed within 3–5 business days from field work through to certified plan delivery. We locate or re-establish all boundary pegs, check measurements against the title plan, and identify all registered easements. ### All Surveying Services — Rostrevor [Boundary Survey](/boundary-survey/) [Detail Survey](/detail-survey/) [Identification Survey](/identification-survey/) [Construction Set-Out Survey](/construction-set-out-survey/) [Land Subdivision](/land-subdivision-adelaide/) [Residential Surveying](/residential-surveyor-adelaide/) Ready to book?
