WHAT INFORMATION DOES A MEASURED BUILDING SURVEY PROVIDE?

This data showcases its structural elements and architectural features, including internal floor plans, ceiling plans, roof plans, internal and external elevations, building cross-sections and street scene elevations. Doors, windows, floor levels and heights are added with descriptive text to appreciate the building clearly.

Deliverables can be produced in various formats – from 2D plans to 3D BIM-ready models, floorplans, sections and elevations. Our drawings can also be linked to the Ordnance Survey Grid and Datum as part of a larger site survey or on an arbitrary datum to suit the project’s specific requirements.

FAQs

WHAT IS A MEASURED BUILDING SURVEY, AND WHY IS IT NECESSARY IN LONDON?

Measured building surveys are essential because they provide accurate existing-building information for planning applications, refurbishment projects, extensions, lease plans, design work and construction.

The duration of a Measured Building Survey depends on the size and complexity of the building. Typically, a small residential property survey may take a few hours to a day, while a large commercial building may take several days or weeks.

However, modern surveying technologies such as laser scanning and drone mapping can speed up the process and provide more accurate results.

A Measured Building Survey report typically includes detailed floor plans, elevations, cross-sections, and 3D models of the building. 

The report can be used by architects, builders, and property owners to plan and execute renovation and extension works, comply with building regulations, and assess the property’s value.

All of our Measured Building Surveys are undertaken in accordance with RICS Specification. Building owners and developers must comply with building regulations, which may involve obtaining permission and building control approval for any renovation or extension works. 

Measured building surveyors can help ensure compliance with these regulations and avoid potential legal issues in the future.

The cost of a Measured Building Survey in London depends on various factors, such as the size and complexity of the building, the surveying method used, and the level of detail required. Typically, a basic survey of a small residential property may cost a few hundred pounds, while a more detailed survey of a large commercial building may cost several thousand pounds.
