Surveyors in Mentone

Mentone combines interwar housing stock, heritage streetscapes and bayside land values, which is a reliable recipe for boundary work being worth doing properly.

Heritage constraints and bayside land values

Mentone has a substantial stock of interwar and Federation housing, parts of it covered by heritage controls, sitting on land valuable enough to justify redevelopment. That tension defines most projects here: what can be retained, what can be added behind it, and exactly where the boundaries sit.

Closer to the foreshore, the cliffs and the reserve add another layer of constraint, and level accuracy becomes more important as sites fall toward the bay.

Survey work on a Mentone site

Title re-establishment. Interwar subdivisions with long-settled fence lines. Where a heritage dwelling is being retained and built around, the true boundary has to be known before the addition is designed. See title re-establishment.

Unit and townhouse subdivision. Typically two to four lots behind or around a retained dwelling, prepared and lodged through SPEAR. See land subdivision.

Feature and level surveys. Existing dwellings, heritage fabric, vegetation and levels. Where the existing building is being retained, 3D laser scanning gives the architect an accurate model to design against.

Easements and drainage. Older Kingston subdivisions carry rear drainage easements that constrain where you can build. See easement surveys.
