How the work runs

  1. Step 01

    Search and records

    We pull the registry index map, deed plan and survey records for your parcel so fieldwork starts from the registered truth, not assumptions.

  2. Step 02

    Field survey

    GNSS and total station observations on site, tied to national control, with neighbouring features and any occupation captured.

  3. Step 03

    Computation

    Adjustment, coordinate transformation and comparison against the registered boundary, flagging encroachment or discrepancy.

  4. Step 04

    Delivery and lodging

    Beacons fixed, plans prepared and, where required, lodged with the county survey office on your behalf.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a land survey cost in Kenya?
Cost depends on parcel size, terrain, location and the type of survey. A boundary survey on a small urban plot is far cheaper than a topographic survey on a large rural farm. Send us the location and approximate size and we return a fixed quotation before any fieldwork starts.
How long does a boundary survey take?
Fieldwork on a typical residential plot takes a day. Search, computation, plan preparation and lodging with the relevant survey office usually add two to six weeks depending on the county land office workload.
What is beacon placement or re-establishment?
Beacons are the physical markers that define your parcel corners. When beacons are missing, moved or disputed, we recover the original survey record, recompute the coordinates and re-fix the beacons in their correct positions.
Do you handle boundary disputes?
Yes. We reconstruct boundaries from the registered survey records and produce a clear report and plan showing the correct position, which can be used in negotiation or presented in court.
Which documents do I need before a survey?
A copy of the title deed or allotment letter, the deed plan or registry index map number, and your identification. If any of these are missing we can carry out a search first.
