Our services are centered around the provisioning of services to private individuals, farmers, businesses, financial institutions and developers.
We have consciously undertaken not to provide any services to government or municipalities due to the associated risks.
Please see the client profile page for detailed information.
For the past 12 years we have successfully provided services from our base in Lydenburg - Mpumalanga. During this period we established a consistent client base of local and international clients - most of which are return clients.
Due to our active presence in Lydenburg, Hoedspruit, Dullstroom, Machadodorp, Burgersfort, Steelpoort, Ohrigstad, etc. we have an effective and efficient professional network established that can tackle any problem.
The business model is based on the notion that clients benefit from my history of success and expertise that have been honed and fine -tuned over many years. It is a services-based model that is not restricted by the effort, but determined by the required outcome.

I always wanted to be a land surveyor and never considered being anything else. Although this in itself is not strange, what is odd is that I never actually knew a land surveyor or had any idea what a land surveyor does! Perhaps it was a calling.
Now, 35 years later, I am a still a land surveyor and loving it. Having being exposed to various disciplines within land surveying, we chose to settle and practice from a rural setting in order to satisfy my profound love for the African bush. Don't be fooled to believe that a rural practice is restrictive - we provide a wide range of services to various national and international clients due to specific expertise offered.
My career started with Eskom in Rustenburg and I was deployed in Schweizer-Reneke after obtaining a national diploma in surveying. I put all on the line by resigning to attend university on a full-time basis. After graduation (cum laude) I did my articles with the Kwazulu-Natal Government in Ulundi and eventually joined a private practice in Empangeni. Thereafter I joined Water Affairs in Pretoria where I worked for 10 years.
After a short stint at MHP Geomatics in Centurion the family settled in Lydenburg in September 2008 when we established the company Coetsee Nel Incorporated.
Again, all was put on the line when we decided to go at it alone from January 2015.
We continue a long and proud history of land surveyors that have been involved and committed to proving survey services dedicated to the Lydenburg region specifically. However, our range has increased significantly and includes Hoedspruit specifically.
Much have changed over the years as surveying has generally become easier, and legislation more complex. The traditional land surveying service was extended and improved to provide a comprehensive property development service that is based on modern technologies and principles whilst being professionally sound.
Development is much more than surveying...it is a complex process full of pitfalls and risks. We now also offer civil commercial mediation services as an alternative dispute resolution option - when things go bad!
I hold a B.Land Surveying degree (Cum Laude) from the University of Pretoria and a National Diploma (Survey) from the Technikon Pretoria (now the Tshwane University of Technology).
I am registered with the South African Geomatics Council as a professional member (Geomatics Professional GPr LS0950) in terms of the Geomatics Profession Act (Act 19 of 2013), and is a Sectional Title Practitioner and a certified Sectional Title Scheme Manager and Home Owner Association Manager (Paddocks / UCT).
I am further registered as a professional member with the South African Geomatics Institute (SAGI) - a Public Benefit Organisation focusing on the business aspects of registered experts in the fields of Land Surveying, Engineering Surveying, GISc, Planning, Land Management, Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing.
I am also a member of the Thaba Chweu Municipal Planning Tribunal in terms of the Spatial and Land Use Management Act (Act 16 of 2013).
In addition to the vast survey and property development experience, mediation services are provided as an alternative dispute resolution option to clients. I am internationally accredited by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) as a Civil Commercial Mediator.
Links are provided to the various bodies where I am registered and accredited.
