Offering reliable boundary determination surveys in Liverpool, Datum Land Surveys use the latest in GPS surveying equipment to ensure prompt, accurate results.
When a boundary becomes the subject of uncertainty, it’s tempting to rely on the nearest fence, wall or title plan for an answer. However, these features don’t always tell the whole story. A fence may have been replaced, an older wall could be hidden by planting, or a Land Registry title plan may indicate only the general extent of a property. A professional boundary determination survey can provide a clearer, measured record of the evidence.
Our boundary determination surveys can include buildings, roads, walls, fences, hedges, access routes and other visible details that may help when considering the position of a boundary. If there are signs of an earlier fence line, wall or change in occupation, these can also be captured where they remain visible.
The purpose of a boundary determination survey is to document the site as it stands today, while preserving useful information about features that may relate to its history. The resulting measurements can be reviewed alongside digital Ordnance Survey mapping and relevant HM Land Registry documents, helping to build a more complete picture than any single source could provide.
Boundary determination surveys are particularly useful in established parts of Liverpool, where extensions, alleyways, yard walls and generations of replacement fencing may have influenced the appearance of property boundaries. Even apparently straightforward sites can contain details that deserve careful consideration.
You may need a boundary determination survey before replacing a fence, planning an extension, purchasing or selling land, changing an access arrangement or discussing a disagreement with a neighbour. The measured information can also be valuable to solicitors and other property professionals who are advising on the next steps.
Boundary determination surveys provide technical evidence, not a legal ruling. But most HM Land Registry title plans show general boundaries, so the red edging shouldn’t be treated as an exact line that can simply be transferred onto the ground. Where the legal position needs interpretation, our completed drawing should be supplied to a suitably qualified adviser.
Datum Land Surveys supplies clear 2D PDF drawings, with DWG files available for professional CAD use. We agree the survey content beforehand to ensure it reflects the property and its intended purpose.
