# Detail Surveys

For a detail survey in Wollongong, there exist points and guide markers to set out and to ensure that an accurate construction of a building is done. For instance, large-scale projects, such as developments and skyscrapers, usually need several setting out surveys to make sure continuity as the project progresses. Thus, this type of survey is often resorted to for all construction projects that must exist within a strict boundary, such as:

### Performing a Setout Survey

At Surveyor Wollongong, we understand the necessity of having a firm understanding of the need to have someone perform a setout survey, and so the setout engineer is responsible for:

- Levelling the Site
- Surveying the Site
- Managing Quality Control
- Documenting the Site
- Conducting Meetings
- Addressing Technical Issues
- Planning the Work
- Being Mindful of Possible Issues

### Have Your Property Surveyed by the Best

Setout also referred to as “staking out” or “laying out,” is deemed a practice of transferring the building design onto the property. This is to ensure that the workers can follow it during actual production and construction. For all your setout survey needs, contact Surveyor Wollongong.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What's the difference between a detail survey and a contour survey?**

A detail survey captures all site features including buildings, fences, trees, and services. A contour survey focuses specifically on ground levels and topography. Most development applications require a detail survey which includes contours as one component of the overall site data.

**How much does a detail survey cost?**

Detail survey costs depend on property size, site complexity, and vegetation density. Typical residential detail surveys in Wollongong range from $1,500-$3,500. Contact us for a free quote based on your specific site.

**Do I need a detail survey for a DA in Wollongong?**

Yes, most development applications to Wollongong Council require a detail survey showing existing site conditions. Your architect or designer will specify the detail survey requirements for your specific project.

**What format will I receive my detail survey plan?**

We provide detail survey plans in PDF format for viewing and printing, plus AutoCAD DWG format so architects and designers can incorporate the survey data directly into their design software.
