A slab poured in the wrong place is expensive to discover and worse to fix. On new estate lots with tight setbacks, getting the setout right is the first thing that keeps a build on program.
Outright Surveying has set out Victorian buildings since 2009, with more than 30 surveyors and licensed cadastral surveyors in the same firm. We confirm the boundary, set out the building and check what was built, so Lara builders and owners deal with one firm from first peg to final title.

Building Surveys for Lara Projects
Residential Building Setout
Homes, townhouses and units marked out on the lot exactly where the approved plans place them.
Construction Set Out
Footings, grids and steel set out for commercial and light industrial buildings.
Title Re-establishment
The true boundary confirmed before setout, so the building envelope is checked against real lines.
Strata Subdivision
Separate titles for townhouses and units, prepared by the same firm that set them out.
Why Lara Builders Choose Outright
There should be no gap between the boundary survey and the setout that follows it. When one firm does both, the building envelope is checked against the true boundary before the first peg goes in.

Building Setout in Lara: Common Questions
We quote each job. A single house slab, a group of townhouses and a commercial building are priced differently, so we go through the drawings with you first and give you a price that reflects the actual work involved.
Often, yes. On a new estate lot the boundary pegs may have been disturbed during earlier works, and setting a house out from a missing or moved peg puts the whole building in the wrong place. Because we do the licensed cadastral work too, we can confirm the boundary and set out the building in one visit.
Yes. We set out the slabs, grids and services for each dwelling, and our cadastral team can prepare the strata plan or subdivision once the buildings are up.
No. We mark out where the building goes to the approved plans. A Building Surveyor issues the permit and carries out mandatory inspections. Most projects need both.
Yes. We also carry out structural surveys in Geelong and work in Werribee and across South West Victoria.

Setout for Every Kind of Lara Build

New Homes on Estate Lots
Have your house land exactly where the approved plans show it. New estate lots often come with tight setbacks to side boundaries and easements, and our residential building setout marks out the slab, grids and plumbing to suit.
If a boundary peg is missing or doubtful, title re-establishment confirms the line first.

Townhouses and Units
Keep walls and services lined up across a multi-dwelling site. Shared driveways, party walls and services that cross between dwellings all depend on each building being set out from the same control.
When the buildings are complete, our cadastral team prepares the strata plan and sets up the owners corporation.

Commercial and Light Industrial
Have the steel fit when it arrives. Our construction set out puts footings, anchor bolts, grids and precast panels in the right place on sheds, warehouses and commercial buildings.
Where a building is split between tenants, we can prepare the lease plans.

Retaining Walls and Site Works
Get pools, garages, outbuildings and retaining walls in the right spot, even close to the boundary. We set them out as part of the same job, with a feature and level survey first if the design needs existing levels.
