CADASTRAL SURVEYS

land surveyors are responsible for establishing excatly where one property starts and another begins, this is the discipline of Cadastral surveying

USING A VARIETY OF INSTRUMENTATION, WE ESTABLISH THE LOCATION OF NEW AND OLD BOUNDARIES. IN THIS PROCESS WE IDENTIFY ENCROACHMENTS AND SEEK TO MAINTAIN THE EXTENTS OF INDIVIDUAL ERVEN

PROPERTIES ARE BOUNDED BY BEACONS THAT ARE DESCRIBED IN AN ERFS HISTORY. WE ARE CHARGED WITH LOCATING AND IF NEEDS BE REPLACING THESE BEACONS

PROPERTIES HAVE BE SLOWING SUBDIVIDED OVER THE CENTURIES RESULTING IN VERY LONG HISTORY FOR CERTAIN ERVEN. SOMETIMES IT IS NECESSARY TO FIND ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS TO ESTABLISH BOUNDARIES

ULTIMATELY, WE PREPARE "ERF DIAGRAMS" THAT DESCRIBE A PROPERTIES EXTENT. THIS DOCUMENT ONCE APPROVED IS USED BY CONVEYANCES TO DRAW UP TITLE DEED RIGHTS, THUS WE ARE THE PARTNER OF THE DEEDS REGISTRY SYSTEM.
