"We are an all-inclusive shop for land development requirements”
Stacey Surveying is a family-owned land development surveying company in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs. We have a long history of working with designers, developers, builders and property owners throughout Victoria. Led by Ashley Stacey, our experienced team of licensed land surveyors has supported projects from single-dwelling homes to large subdivisions since 2011.
We provide a wide array of property development surveying services in Melbourne, from initial site investigation to construction and post-build asset recording. We can assist you at any stage.
Feature and Level Surveys — We provide a detailed plan of your site’s existing features, levels and boundaries.
Site Analysis Plans — We prepare a planning-ready document capturing site context, neighbouring properties and overlays, in line with council and ResCode requirements.
Building Set Outs — Precise on-ground marking of your building’s position, footings and key structural points so your builder can construct precisely to plan.
Monitoring Surveys — Ongoing measurement of structures, ground movement or adjoining buildings during construction to detect any shift before it becomes a problem.
Asset Recording — Accurate as-built records of completed works, often required by councils, asset owners or for handover documentation.
Subdivision — Plans of subdivision and consolidation prepared and lodged with Land Use Victoria, suitable for residential, mixed-use and commercial projects.
Title Re-Establishment — Confirmation of your legal property boundaries on the ground, often required before erecting fencing, building or resolving a boundary dispute.
Reality Capture — High-density 3D scanning of buildings and sites, producing point clouds and digital models for design, documentation and heritage work.
We work on residential and commercial projects, scaling our team and equipment to suit your job.
Our residential development surveys cover everything from single new builds and home extensions through to dual-occupancy projects, townhouses and small subdivisions. We understand how Melbourne councils assess permit applications, what overlays mean for your site and how to set up your project for smooth movement.
We provide commercial development surveys on warehouse developments, multi-storey buildings, mixed-use sites and industrial projects. Ashley Stacey and the team are involved in the full project lifecycle, so you’re not juggling multiple surveyors as the project progresses.

Early on, it’s a feature and level survey or site analysis plan to inform design and planning. During construction, it can include building set-outs, monitoring and as-built asset recording. Most developments require multiple surveys at different stages.
Only a Licensed Surveyor registered with the Surveyors Registration Board of Victoria can legally handle work involving property boundaries, subdivisions or titles. You can verify surveyors on SRBV’s public register.
A standard residential feature and level survey usually takes one to two weeks. Larger sites, subdivisions and projects needing council records take longer. We’ll provide you with a clear timeframe when we understand your site.
A planning permit is council approval for land use or development, taking into account overlays, neighbourhood character and ResCode. A building permit confirms construction meets the Building Code and is issued by a surveyor. Most developments require both, obtained in that order.
