Precise 'As-Built' Measured Survey Quotes

Working throughout the UK and into Europe, our professional surveyors have considerable experience in producing detailed and accurate measured building surveys for our clients.

Our surveyors use the latest laser scanning and digital equipment and also use more traditional survey methods. They produce 2D Plans, Sections and Elevations as well as 3D Revit models to a pre-defined level of detail, which we will quote for.

CADS surveyors are knowledgeable and practised in surveying a wide range of building types, including historic, commercial, retail and industrial buildings.

CADS’ survey clients include

Defining the measured building survey specification

Prior to going out on site, we will agree the measured building survey specification with you. This will include defining the survey deliverables such as 2D plans, sections and elevations. We can also deliver 3D models which can be BIM Level 2 compliant if required.

Undertaking the measured building survey

While on site, our surveyors will use both laser scanning equipment together with more traditional survey methods to capture the information you require.

Compiling the survey data

Following completion of the survey on-site survey we will draw up the measured floor plans or as-built plans in AutoCAD™ or Revit™, building these on an accurately surveyed building footprint, with areas measured and calculated in accordance with the RICS Code of Measuring Practice.

“I would personally like to thank-you for your work and assistance in helping us secure this lottery funding. Your accurate measured survey and drawings have been essential in developing our schemes.”
Fiona Skeats | Senior Building Surveyor (Special Projects) | Eling Tide Mill
