We have been servicing the Building Industry for over 30 years and completed thousands of setouts
House Setouts
What is a house/construction setout?
A House/Construction Setout is provided to identify where the soon to be built House will sit on the block. Every new house has plans approved by their local Council which shows us all the crucial setback measurements. The setout provides pegs which identify all the external walls of the to be built house.
The plans we need are:
The Site plan which shows all the crucial setbacks.
Ground Floor Plan shows the exact lengths and widths of all the external walls which the following trades will need to complete their works, this plan includes things like Garage, entries, Alfrescos etc.
Subdivision/Title Plan will show the block dimensions, which is critical in ensuring that the House will fit on the block. This also will show us where the Survey Pegs should be. A Survey Peg is an onsite mark which identifies where the block starts and finishes which is provided by a Land Surveyor or Developer and this is necessary on EVERY block. If these are not onsite - see Resurvey/ Re-establishment Survey.
We get your project off the plan and onto the ground to make your dream a reality.

Yes - a Re-establishment Survey (resurvey) establishes the boundary of the block and ensure it accords to the Council. We use this boundary to then position the house/units/pool in the exact location needed with a setout.
We offer resurveys and setouts from a Licensed Surveyor.

Unless you request FFL’s (finished floor levels), you will not receive them. Your concretor may request an FFL mark, and if so, let us know so we can organise.

For the setout we peg out your external walls for the house based off your site and ground floor plan you present us. Your trades can distinguish which peg is which by referring to your plans. We don’t label pegs unless requested, as it is not standard procedure.
