Frequently Asked Questions

Please provide the site address, the area or building to be surveyed, the required survey information and deliverables, any available photographs or existing plans, access details and any relevant deadline.

A topographical survey records land, levels, boundaries and physical site features. A measured building survey provides drawings such as floor plans, elevations and sections, while 3D laser scanning captures detailed point-cloud information for buildings and complex sites. If you are unsure, our land surveyors in Bristol and Bath can review the project brief and advise on the appropriate survey approach.

Depending on the project brief, deliverables can include topographical survey drawings, measured building survey drawings, CAD plans, PDF drawings, 3D point-cloud data and BIM-ready deliverables.

The programme depends on the site, survey scope, access arrangements, required deliverables and current workload. We review these factors and confirm the expected timescale as part of the quotation.

Discuss Your Survey Requirements

If you have a site, building or development project requiring accurate survey information, our land surveyors in Bristol and Bath can review the address, proposed survey area and required deliverables. We will then advise on the appropriate survey approach.

Existing drawings, plans, site photographs, project specifications and access information can also help us understand the work and prepare an accurate quotation.
