Highly skilled surveyors — trusted from suburban slabs to the state’s largest road, rail, mining and infrastructure builds.
Founded on the Fraser Coast in 1996, Surveyors at Work has grown into one of regional Queensland’s most capable survey firms. In any given week our teams are setting out slabs for local builders and acting as lead project surveyors on nationally significant road, rail, mining and health infrastructure. That range keeps our people sharp, our technology current, and our service grounded in the community we’re part of.
From the largest infrastructure projects to the block next door — six core disciplines, delivered to the standards government and industry demand.
Lead project surveying for road, bridge, rail, defence and mining infrastructure — control, set-out, machine control, conformance and as-constructed.
High-level survey support embedded with your project team — earthworks, major commercial buildings, subdivisions and infrastructure.
Fast, accurate contour surveys, house & building set-out, earthworks, AHD benchmarks and Form 12 — the work we do for the region’s builders every week.
Registered cadastral surveyors — subdivisions, amalgamations, lease, volumetric, easement and identification surveys.
State-of-the-art scanning of structures and terrain — point clouds, mesh models, DTMs, cross-sections, volumes and 3D models.
Aerial imagery and LiDAR for mapping, inspection and monitoring — orthomosaics, DTMs, contour maps, volumes and asset reports.
A snapshot of our current flagship projects — surveyed by our team, right now.
Lead survey team on the 130-hectare facility building 65 new passenger trains — control, rail & building set-out, LiDAR and as-constructed across the life of the project.
Full civil & construction survey on an 80-bed, high-security build (est. $982M) — proof we’re trusted to deliver inside secure environments.
Civil & construction survey on the $1.2 billion new hospital — audit control, as-constructed and structural set-out on one of Queensland’s largest health projects.
Our footage does more than fill a report — it’s trusted by government and national media to tell the story of the projects and events shaping our region.











Surveyors at Work has called the Fraser Coast home since 1996. We put our skills, equipment and people behind the community that supports us — quietly, and because this is our home.
Our director Mick Irwin came up with the original vision for the Dunga Derby, and Mick and Leigh Staunton were among the charity’s founders — both still heavily involved today. Hear how it began, in their own words.
Whether it’s a house set-out or the next major build, our team is ready to help. Tell us what you need and we’ll take it from there.
