How We Work — Our Surveying Process

1. Initial Consultation: We discuss project goals, review existing documents (titles, plans), and schedule a site inspection.
2. Desk Study & Title Check: We review land records and perform preliminary title verification to identify encumbrances or discrepancies.
3. Field Survey: Our team conducts on-site measurements using GPS, total stations and drones (if required) to capture accurate coordinates and features.
4. Data Processing & Map Production: Field data is processed into CAD and GIS formats. We produce plans, contour maps, and technical reports tailored to your needs.
5. Delivery & Registration Support: We deliver survey plans, assist with submission to relevant land offices, and provide boundary marking and pegging as required.
6. Follow-up: Ongoing support for any clarification, amendments, or additional surveys.

Common Questions (FAQ)

How long does a land survey take?

Typical small-site surveys take 1–3 days in the field with 2–5 days for data processing. Larger or more complex sites (multiple hectares or dense vegetation) may require longer. We provide timelines in our proposal.

How much does land surveying cost in Uganda?

Costs vary by survey type, site size, accessibility and legal requirements. We provide transparent quotes after an initial consultation and site assessment. Our pricing reflects quality equipment, certified surveyors, and full deliverables.

Do you handle title verification and registration?

Yes. We assist with title checks, preparation of survey plans for registration, and submission guidance to land registry offices. We do not replace legal advice but work closely with conveyancers and land registries.

Can you mark my property boundaries on site?

Yes. Our boundary surveys include pegging and marking with coordinates and visible markers. We provide pegging records and coordinates for future reference.

Do you use drone surveying?

We deploy drone (UAV) mapping for topographical surveys and large sites where aerial imagery speeds up data capture and improves accuracy. Drone use depends on site permissions and project needs.
