What is a Measured Building Survey?

A measured building survey records the physical layout and geometry of an existing building — capturing accurate dimensions, structural features and key elements to create a reliable base for design, planning and construction. It removes the guesswork from early project stages and gives your design team verified data to work from.

What We Can Provide

  • Existing floor plans showing room layouts and wall thicknesses
  • Elevations showing external features, openings and heights
  • Sections illustrating internal layouts and level changes
  • Roof plans where required
  • Floor-to-ceiling heights and level information
  • Doors, windows and openings clearly identified with sizes
  • Key structural elements captured as part of the survey

What We Survey

  • Residential properties — houses, apartments and flats
  • Commercial buildings — offices, retail, mixed-use
  • Industrial units and warehouses
  • Listed and historic buildings
  • Refurbishment and retrofit projects

Our Process

1
Fast, accurate data collection

Efficient on-site surveys using appropriate methods and modern equipment with minimal disruption.

2
Data analysis & quality assurance

Survey data is processed and cross-checked before any drawings are produced.

3
Fast, reliable delivery

Topographical Surveys

Site features, levels and constraints captured to OS grid coordinates for planning and development.

Learn more →

What is a Topographical Survey?

A topographical survey records the physical characteristics of a site — natural and man-made features, boundaries and changes in ground level. It provides the essential base data for planning applications, feasibility studies and design development. Without it, designers are working on assumptions about the site they're building on.

What We Can Provide

  • Ground levels and spot heights across the site
  • Contour lines at agreed intervals
  • Buildings, structures and boundaries
  • Roads, footpaths, kerbs and hardstanding
  • Drainage features, manholes and service covers
  • Trees, vegetation and root protection areas
  • Surveys to OS National Grid coordinates and datum where required

What We Survey

  • Residential development plots
  • Commercial and mixed-use sites
  • Infrastructure, access and highway schemes
  • Urban and rural sites of all sizes

Our Process

1
Fast, accurate data collection

Site data captured efficiently, to OS grid coordinates and datum where required.

2
Data analysis & quality assurance

Coordinate control and level information reviewed as part of our QA process.

3
Fast, reliable delivery

Clear topographical drawings issued in agreed formats, ready for planning and design.

Why Choose SurveyX

OS coordinate control

Surveys to OS National Grid and datum, compatible with planning and consultant datasets.

Reliable site data

Accurate information from the outset reduces costly surprises during construction.

Clear, usable plans

Clearly annotated and logically structured — ready to use from day one.

All site types

Urban plots to large rural sites — we adapt our methodology to each project.

3D Laser Scanning & Point Clouds

High-density point cloud data using the Leica BLK360 for complex structures and refurbishment projects.

Learn more →

What is a 3D Laser Scanning Survey?

A 3D laser scanning survey uses specialist equipment — in our case the Leica BLK360 — to capture millions of precise spatial measurements, creating a detailed digital representation known as a point cloud. It's the most efficient and accurate way to record complex existing buildings, capturing everything in a single visit with millimetre-level precision.

What We Can Provide

  • High-density point cloud data covering the full building or site
  • Registered and fully aligned scan datasets
  • Colourised scans using HDR imagery from the BLK360
  • Scans registered to OS grid coordinates where required
  • Data ready for Revit, AutoCAD and BricsCAD workflows
  • Scan-to-plan CAD drawings extracted from point cloud data

What We Survey

  • Existing buildings of all ages and types
  • Commercial and industrial spaces
  • Complex or irregular architectural layouts
  • Heritage and listed buildings
  • Refurbishment, retrofit and extension projects

Our Process

1
Fast, accurate data collection

Leica BLK360 captures dense point cloud data with minimal disruption, tied to OS coordinates where required.

2
Data processing & quality assurance

Scans registered in Autodesk ReCap and checked for accuracy, alignment and completeness.

3
Fast, reliable delivery

Point cloud datasets issued in RCP/RCS or E57, ready for design and BIM workflows.

Why Choose SurveyX

Leica BLK360

Industry-leading compact scanner for millimetre-accurate, high-density point clouds.

Fewer site visits

Everything captured in one visit — no need to return for missed measurements.

Industry-standard formats

RCP, RCS and E57 outputs compatible with all major CAD and BIM platforms.

Complex geometry

Irregular buildings, tight spaces, heritage fabric — we adapt our scan strategy to suit.

3D BIM Models

As-built Revit models produced from survey and point cloud data for design coordination and refurbishment.

Learn more →

What is a 3D BIM Model?

A 3D BIM (Building Information Model) is a digital model representing the physical and spatial characteristics of a building. Produced from measured survey and point cloud data, it gives design teams an accurate, intelligent 3D reference — from which floor plans, elevations, sections and schedules can be extracted directly. All our models are delivered in Autodesk Revit, the industry-standard BIM platform.

What We Can Provide

  • As-built BIM models of existing buildings
  • Existing conditions models for refurbishment and retrofit
  • Models built from measured survey and point cloud data
  • Level of detail agreed to suit the project stage
  • 2D drawings extracted from the model (plans, elevations, sections)
  • IFC export for open BIM workflows where required

What We Model

  • Residential and commercial buildings
  • Refurbishment and retrofit projects
  • Complex architectural layouts
  • Heritage and listed buildings
  • Industrial and institutional buildings

Our Process

1
Accurate data capture

Models built from verified measured survey or point cloud data — not scaled from existing drawings.

2
BIM modelling & quality assurance

Developed and checked in Revit to the agreed level of detail throughout.

3
Reliable delivery

RVT, IFC or extracted DWG drawings issued in agreed formats and timescales.

Why Choose SurveyX
