What affects the price
- number of building corners and foundation footings to be marked out
- region and city (e.g. higher rates in Mazowsze)
- availability of surveying documentation
Usually included in the price
- marking out the building corners on site
- marking out the outer edges of strip foundations
Usually charged separately
- setting out the plot boundaries (separate service)
- post-completion survey after construction
Setting out a building is a different service from marking out plot boundaries: boundaries are marked out once at the start of the development, while the building is set out just before construction work begins, and the survey measurements are entered in the construction log.
Prices from customers and companies
Two types of entries: customers state how much they paid for the entire job and rate the contractor; service providers enter their price lists. Customer entries have three reliability levels: ✓ verified: invoice or receipt (the editorial team has seen a document matching the entry), ✓ verified: declaration (the author confirmed the entry using a link sent by e-mail) and unverified (how we verify entries); we do not verify company price lists. Price lists entered by companies are not included in the median at the top of the page; customer amounts are included only for services priced as a complete service.
