In terms of exact position, if you're installing a colorbond fence between your property & your neighbours property, does the colorbond fence go: A) Aligned across the center of the boundary string (i.e - if not removed the string would still exist in the very center of the depth of the colorbond fence) B) On your neighbours side of the boundary string C) On your side of the boundary string
I live in Queensland and I believe all boundary pins were timber back then and did rot out. Do you know if there has been a change throughout Australia to Metal pegs. Thanks.
i'm not sure honestly for austrailia, but those timbers are just used for easily identifying where the pins are. As far as I know every property has pins unless they were removed which at least in the USA it's illegal.
best advice i can give is get a metal detector and learn how to use it... biggest piece of advice there is a target feature on most of them and that alone will save you a hell of a lot of hassle and try to easily locate one pin, most properties at least in suburban areas are square so you can get a better idea of where the rest of the pins go. In the USA pins are set a foot outside towards the house from the sidewalk and usually sits on the lines in the concrete walkway. also be warned sometimes contractors remove the pins so there is a chance you might not locate the pins & i have found pins underneath the sidewalk which is a huge pain in the rear.
How to determine your property line... call a surveyor and have him locate it for you.
if your going to make a wall fence / hollow blocks six inches thick ,where is the center of your wall?
