King and Campbell offer a comprehensive range of surveying services together with professional advice. We have seven Registered Surveyors who possess a wealth of regional knowledge and expertise in the laws, acts and regulations affecting surveying.

We offer an innovative approach to surveying and strive to maintain a very high standard of quality assurance.

Our services include:

Boundary Surveys:
Boundary Surveys can only be carried out by Registered Surveyors - they serve to define the boundaries of a parcel of land using its legal description. These types of surveys may be required for fencing and boundary disputes - they also form an integral part of the other types of surveys listed below. King and Campbell's Surveyors have extensive experience performing boundary definition surveys.


Subdivisions:

Subdivisions divide a parcel(s) of land into parts for separate use.  We have the expertise and experience to carry out any type of subdivision, whether it be a two lot dual occupancy or a mutli-staged development.

Detail Surveys/Topographic Surveys:
These types of surveys generally show the improvements of the land together with the natural topographic features.

Building Setout:
We cater for all types of building setouts from residential house extensions to multi-storey
unit complexes.

 


Engineering Surveys:

King and Campbell has extensive experience in performing these types of surveys – typically, they include: road setout, constructing digital terrain models, services setout, grid setout for bulk earthworks, piling and footing setout in addition to any other type of setout that may be required for a development.

Strata Surveys:
A strata scheme is the development of land to allow multiple occupancy and ownership of individual units, or parts of a parcel, by separate individuals or companies. Creation of a strata scheme results in the issue of titles under strata scheme legislation. We have extensive experience in strata development and have a comprehensive understanding of the legislation.

Stratum Surveys:
A stratum subdivision is the division of land into layers which, when superimposed one upon the other, form the whole of the parcel(s) being subdivided. A stratum lot is a parcel restricted in height and/or depth by reference to the Australian Height Datum (AHD) or other approved datum. These types of subdivisions are effective where you may wish to establish two or more strata schemes in a single building. We have considerable experience in many of the more complex stratum subdivisions around our local area and can provide advice on whether a stratum subdivision would be suitable for your development.

Community Title:
A community scheme is the development of land to allow subdivision with the advantages of both conventional and strata lots. It allows for the subdivision of land into smaller lots and communal property owned by a specifically formed corporation comprising as its members all the lot owners. Community Schemes are ideal for retirement villages, townhouse developments, business parks, hobby farms, gated communities and themed developments like golf courses. We have the expertise to advise if your development would benefit from a community scheme and the experience to ensure the most appropriate outcome.

GPS (Global Positioning Systems) Surveys:
GPS surveys utilise the signals transmitted from satellites to determine three dimensional positions on the ground. If a specific site is suitable for the utilisation of GPS, we have the experience and resources to carry out the survey using that method. There are many efficiency gains using this technology.

Lease Area Surveys (PCA or BOMA):
Lease area surveys are carried out for commercial leases where payments are made on a per square metre basis. The majority of these surveys are completed in accordance with the Property Council of Australia’s (PCA) method of measurement, however we can measure the areas to any specific standard or instruction. All our lease area reports are accompanied with a sketch.

Identification Surveys:
Identification surveys are usually carried out in relation to conveyancing and are principally used to identify the land and any improvements thereon. This may include the identification of easements, encroachments, compliance with any restrictive covenants that may be affecting the land and compliance with local government requirements regarding setbacks and boundary offsets.

Work as Executed Surveys:
These types of surveys are typically carried out to confirm that any new civil engineering works have been constructed or installed in accordance with the approved design. The Work as Executed Plan is often required as a development condition and is a fundamental part of the process in obtaining final certification in developments on all scales. We have a very refined and streamlined procedure in place for performing these types of surveys which produces a final output that is now being utilised as a bench mark by the local Council.

Volumes and Quantities:
We are quite often asked to calculate the volumes of stockpiles of material or of material already excavated from a certain location. Our procedures for carrying out such surveys ensure accurate and dependable results.
