LAND SURVEYORS ON THE NORTH SHORE

Consurv is a team of construction-focused land surveyors on the North Shore, based out of Stillwater and working across the wider Auckland region. 

With over a decade of project experience and a tertiary-qualified team, we’ve earned a track record working alongside some of New Zealand’s largest contractors. Whether you’re scoping a major civil build, setting out a residential subdivision, or confirming boundaries before breaking ground, we bring the expertise and modern equipment to get it done right.

Our land surveying on the North Shore covers boundary and topographic surveys, construction setout, drone mapping, and marine surveying, all delivered by a local team.

Surveying Services on the North Shore

We offer a full range of surveying disciplines, so you don’t have to juggle multiple providers on a single project.

Boundary Surveying

Boundary surveying confirms legal property lines with LINZ-compliant data. Essential before fencing, building, or any development work near title boundaries.

Construction Surveying

From initial setout through to as-built, our construction surveyors integrate with your build programme and keep projects moving. This is our core specialty.

Topographic Surveying

Our topographic surveys provide detailed contour and feature data, giving architects, engineers, and designers the site intelligence they need before a single line is drawn.

Aerial Surveying

Using professional drone hardware and photogrammetry software, our aerial surveys capture high-resolution ortho imagery and 3D models for earthworks volumes, progress monitoring, and site records.

Marine Surveying

Hydrographic and coastal surveys for projects involving wharves, marinas, seawalls, or any works at the waterline. Not many surveyors on the North Shore offer this.

We’re based in Stillwater, which puts us well-placed to cover the full breadth of the North Shore, from the inner suburbs around the harbour to the outer reaches of the Hibiscus Coast.

Common Surveys on the North Shore

The North Shore’s mix of established suburbs, active growth corridors, and coastal terrain drives a consistent range of survey work:

  • Building setout on the North Shore. New residential builds and commercial developments require accurate setout before and during construction. We provide construction surveying services that integrate with the build programme from day one.
  • Boundary surveys for fencing and development. Boundary disputes and pre-build verification are common in older North Shore suburbs where pegs are missing or title records are dated.
  • Topographic surveys for design. Architects and engineers working on sites in Takapuna, Albany, or anywhere along the harbour slopes typically need detailed topo before design work begins. 
  • Drone surveys for earthworks and civil projects. Particularly common in the growth areas around Silverdale and the Hibiscus Coast, where large earthworks programmes benefit from volume calculations and progress monitoring.
  • Property boundary survey for subdivisions. The North Shore continues to see strong subdivision activity. We handle the property boundary survey component through to LINZ submission.

FAQs

How much does a boundary survey cost on the North Shore?

It varies depending on site size, the age of the title, and the amount of existing survey data available. Residential boundary surveys on the North Shore typically range from $500 to $1,500+, with more complex cadastral work running higher. The best approach is to contact us for an obligation-free quote. We can usually provide an estimate quickly once we understand your site.

How long does a land survey take?

A straightforward boundary or topographic survey on a residential site can often be completed within a few days once we’re on-site. Larger construction or subdivision surveys are scoped to the project programme. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe upfront.

Do I need a licensed cadastral surveyor for boundary work?

Yes, in New Zealand, any survey that affects legal title boundaries must be carried out by a Licensed Cadastral Surveyor (LCS) and submitted to LINZ. Our team works with licensed cadastral surveyors to ensure your boundary survey meets all legal requirements.

How quickly can you start a survey on the North Shore?

In most cases, we can mobilise within a few days. For construction clients on tight programmes, give us a call — we’ll do our best to accommodate urgent requirements.

Do you cover all of the North Shore?

Yes. We’re based in Stillwater and regularly survey across the full North Shore, from Devonport and Takapuna in the south to Silverdale, Orewa, and Whangaparaoa on the Hibiscus Coast, and everywhere in between.
