Boundary Surveys
Clear, measured survey data to support an informed understanding of your property boundaries.
What Is a Boundary Survey?
A boundary survey measures and maps the physical features of a site and compares them with available title plans and Ordnance Survey mapping.
This process highlights any indicative differences between the recorded boundary line and the physical features on site, with clear dimensions to show the extent of any potential encroachment.
Boundary surveys are commonly used when buying or selling property, planning works, or reviewing boundary positions with neighbouring properties.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"SolidPoint have provided me with a great service by taking the time to understand the situation of a boundary dispute with a neighbour. They have generated a report in line with the standards set by RICS with a production of a CPR35 detailed report. This has been extremely helpful for both parties to settle an amicable solution and understanding with the facts and evidence in place to prevent future misunderstanding and confusion. The team members were extremely friendly, helpful and responsive."

Frequesntly Asked Questions (FAQ's):
What does a boundary survey show?
A boundary survey shows the position of physical features on site and compares them with HM Land Registry title plans and Ordnance Survey mapping. Any differences are highlighted with measured dimensions.
Does a boundary survey confirm the legal boundary?
No. It provides measured survey data and a comparison with available mapping. Legal boundaries are determined through legal processes and supporting evidence.
Will you mark the boundary on site?
No. We do not carry out boundary setting out. Our service provides measured survey data and mapping to show the relationship between physical features and available title information.
Can this help with a boundary query?
Yes. The survey provides clear, measured information that can support discussions with neighbours or professional advisors.
When should I get a boundary survey?
Typically when buying or selling property, planning works near a boundary, or when there is uncertainty between mapping and physical features.
How accurate is the survey?
Measurements are taken using survey-grade equipment to a high level of accuracy. However, mapping sources such as title plans and OS data have their own tolerances.
