Surveys of
Existing Homes

Create a Complete Record of Existing Buildings

So often, owners of even recently constructed homes and buildings find that no drawing records of existing structures exist either at council or at the Deeds Office. For any number of reasons, accurate drawings of existing can be essential. Multi Urban Developments can solve the problem with measured surveys to bring records up to date and meet all compliance requirements.

Without an accurate drawing record of “what you have”, you’re unlikely to be able to determine exactly “what you could have”. Whether thinking about extending, renovating, repurposing or even demolishing in order to start again, the first step will almost always to be to determine what’s there already.

Many older buildings in South Africa are subject to control by The South African Heritage Resources Agency (SAHRA) established in terms of the National Heritage Resources Act (No 25 of 1999). This is the national body responsible for the protection of South Africa’s cultural heritage resources. In order to effect any alterations or additions to properties that fall under the SAHRA, it may be necessary to first submit a record of existing buildings…. Multi Urban Developments can help with measured surveys and in creating accurate and complete drawing records.
