Measured Survey Packages

Compare survey coverage, CAD detail and deliverables for your project stage. A clear brief connects the information captured on site with the drawings and data your team needs.

Every project depends on one thing: information that's fit for purpose.

We provide a reliable, auditable survey dataset and produce drawings to the level of detail your project requires. Package choice affects production scope rather than creating a universal price: building coverage, access, complexity, control and programme still need to be reviewed for each project.

Read the measured building survey cost guide for pricing factors and the survey cost breakdown before comparing a live brief.

1

Site survey

We capture and validate a reliable dataset using appropriate methods, QA, and auditability.

2

CAD production

We interpret that dataset into drawings, aligned to how you'll use them.

Choose the CAD package level based on intended use. We scale the survey approach to reliably deliver that standard.

Select based on your project stage

Planning & feasibility

Recommended CAD: Silver

Clear, planning-suitable drawings with simplified representation.

Design & coordination

Recommended CAD: Gold

For design development and coordination where more drawing detail is required.

Complex / high-risk projects

Recommended CAD: Platinum

High-detail drawings where complexity, access, or detail increases risk.

Survey approach agreed to the brief

Appropriate capture methods for the site constraints and required detail

Robust processing and QA checks for consistency across outputs

Auditability where required, with clear survey control principles

A single dataset designed to carry the project forward

  • Clear deliverables issued in DWG and PDF

Typical appointments

Silver CAD — planning-stage drawings for clear submissions and early design.

Gold CAD — drawing detail for coordination and design development.

Platinum CAD — additional agreed detail where complexity and risk are higher.

Advanced details

Formats and outputs can be agreed to suit your workflow.

We'll confirm scope, access constraints, and intended use before appointment.
