FAQs

Common questions about construction setouts, timing, and how we work with your project.

How long does a setout take?

Most residential construction setouts are completed within 2-3 days of booking. We schedule around your site readiness and project timeline. Urgent work can often be accommodated without advance notice.

What information do you need?

We need approved building plans, site access details, and any specific positioning requirements. If you're working from a subdivision plan, we'll reference that. We'll confirm everything with you before we arrive on site.

Do you work with architects?

Yes. We regularly work with architects to set out custom designs and complex layouts. We understand architectural drawings and can translate them precisely to the ground.

Can you setout multiple buildings?

Absolutely. We handle multi-lot subdivisions, dual occupancy projects, and complex site layouts. We'll coordinate the sequence to match your construction schedule.

What if site access is difficult?

We've worked on tight urban sites, sloping land, and constrained properties across Perth. Let us know the challenges upfront and we'll plan accordingly. Most site access issues can be managed with proper coordination.

Do you provide written confirmation?

Yes. You'll receive a setout report with photos, measurements, and details of what was positioned. This becomes your reference for construction and protects both of us.

Can you work around existing structures?

Yes. We regularly setout new buildings on properties with existing homes, sheds, or other structures. We'll measure and reference existing features to ensure accurate positioning.

What about sloping or uneven land?

Sloping sites are our standard work. We'll establish level reference points and provide height information so your builder knows exactly where to position the structure.

How much does a setout cost?

Pricing depends on site complexity, access, and whether it's a single building or multiple lots. We'll provide a clear quote before you commit. Contact us with your project details for an estimate.

Do you offer repeat builder rates?

Yes. We have structured packages for builders who use us regularly. Consistent pricing, priority scheduling, and streamlined communication. Ask us about builder packages.
