Why you need an up-to-date topographical survey

When a site is being developed, groundworks can change the lay of the land. Changes in topographical terrain can happen at the very beginning of a project and then be left for weeks and months whilst designs are agreed upon and planning is sought.

Site preparation for construction can change the terrain and features of the ground again and it is vital that all contractors have up-to-date topographical measurements before breaking ground in the construction of new buildings.

An accurate topographic survey brings certainty to planned developments, by reducing the risk of errors and by giving an accurate plan of the site. It will show you the changes to the site at a point in time that may not be immediately clear to see with the naked eye.
