Common Questions
What plans do I need to provide?
In order to quote and complete the Setout we need the approved Site Plan, Ground Floor Plan, Slab Plan and Subdivision/Title Plan.
The Site Plan is a plan looking from above the block, showing the setback measurements that Council agrees with.
The Ground Floor Plan shows the exact measurements of every room, including Garages, entries and Alfrescos.
The Slab Plan shows the dimensions of the slab.
The Subdivision/Title Plan will show the block dimensions, which is critical in ensuring that the House will fit on the block. This also will show us where the Survey Pegs should be.
A Survey Peg is a peg which identifies where the block starts and finishes which is provided by a Land Surveyor and this is provided on EVERY block, and if they are not onsite, we can complete a Resurvey.
If you are building on an old block, it is recommended to get a Reestablishment Survey to ensure that any existing fencing is in the correct position.
What is a Setout?
A House Setout is the placement of pegs to identify to following trades where the soon to be built house will sit on the block. Every new house will have setback measurements showing where the house will sit compared to the front boundary, and where it will sit on both sides of the boundary. This will be required by Council before they accept the drawings.
