Land / Topographical Surveys

We provide detailed land surveys and topographical surveys, accurately mapping site features such as elevations, boundaries, and physical structures. Ideal for land development, construction, and planning, our surveys ensure all key details are captured for your project. We also offer contour surveys and site surveys to support precise site design.

Measured Building Surveys

Our measured building surveys, also known as building measurement surveys or as-built surveys, deliver precise internal and external measurements of properties. We create accurate floor plans, sections, and elevations, ensuring detailed and reliable information for renovations, extensions, or building conversions.

Rail Surveys

Our rail infrastructure surveys, also referred to as railway surveys or track surveys, deliver highly accurate data on track geometry, structures, and surrounding land. We support rail development, maintenance, and safety by providing comprehensive geospatial information, ensuring efficient project planning and execution..

Utility Surveys including GPR Surveys

We offer comprehensive utility surveys, including ground-penetrating radar (GPR) surveys and CAT surveys, to locate and map underground utilities such as pipes, cables, and drainage systems. Our underground utility surveys are essential for safe excavation and construction, reducing the risk of damaging hidden utilities on-site.

3D Laser Scanning

Our 3D laser scanning services, also known as reality capture or high-definition surveys, capture precise, high-definition data for complex structures and landscapes. This technology supports detailed 3D modelling, digital twin creation, and accurate documentation for construction, restoration, and heritage projects.

Site Setting Out

Our site setting out services, also called construction staking, are performed by a setting out engineer to ensure accurate placement of buildings, roads, and utilities on-site. We work closely with contractors and engineers to transfer design plans onto the physical site, ensuring precision in construction and development projects.

Deformation Monitoring

Our deformation monitoring services, also known as structural monitoring or movement surveys, track and analyse the movement of structures over time. Essential for ensuring the safety and stability of buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure, we provide real-time data to detect potential issues early.

Drone Surveys using Lidar and Photogrammetry

Using drone surveys with LiDAR and photogrammetry, we capture detailed aerial data of large or hard-to-access areas. This method supports accurate aerial mapping, site analysis, and topographic surveys, offering a cost-effective and efficient way to survey extensive landscapes.

Land Registry Plans

Our land registry plans, also referred to as title plans, which can include boundary surveys, meet all legal requirements for property registration. Whether for residential, commercial, or land development purposes, we provide clear, accurate plans for submission to the Land Registry, ensuring property boundaries are properly defined.

Land Survey Case Studies for the Dorset Region

Nestled in the heart of Weymouth, Dorset, Brewers Quay presented a unique opportunity for our team to contribute to the restoration of this iconic heritage site. We were appointed to carry out detailed survey plans, providing accurate measurements and critical data to support the planning and redevelopment process. Our work ensured a precise understanding of the site’s existing structures, enabling informed decisions while respecting the historical significance of this beloved landmark. This project highlights our dedication to delivering bespoke surveying solutions for sites of cultural and architectural importance.
