Surveying Mangawhai since 1994
Local knowledge is more than knowing the rules. It is understanding the land, the infrastructure, the people and how projects move through Council.
Adam Booth began surveying in Mangawhai with Thompson and Fish Limited in 1994 and founded Pacific Coast Surveys Limited in 2008. The practice now trades publicly as Mangawhai Surveyors.
