Owner Builders need to start with a Feature Survey just like any other builder.
The building designer that you select to design your new home or building project will conduct a feature contour survey and detail study of you site. With this detail they will be able to provide a study and investigation of your site and will be able to tell you what kind of development will best suit your site. From this report you will be able to judge the efficiency and reliability of the designer to further assist your development proposal.
A feature survey should include the following and can be ordered by yourself
Street and Verge condition ie existing cracks to the Kerbs and foot paths. (just in case of any issues with the council once you have finished your project)
All Levels.
All Easements
All existing structures.
Adjoining structures and levels.
Location of services ie water, gas, telstra, power, sewer, and storm water.
North Point.
Any other features that are on your site.
All of this needs to be done by a Licenced Surveyor.
And once this is completed you can start your design process of a Eco Friendly Design.
