Measured Building Surveys
Existing layouts, levels, elevations, sections and visible building information captured to an agreed scope.
About us
Surveying and Modelling Built Around the Project
Measured Building Surveyors is a specialist Survey2Plan service providing accurate existing-building information for projects across the UK.
Backed by more than 20 years of combined experience across surveying, engineering, architectural technology and BIM, we bring site capture and digital delivery together under one workflow.

Who we are
Measured Building Surveys Backed by Survey2Plan
Measured Building Surveyors focuses specifically on existing-building survey requirements while drawing on the wider capability of Survey2Plan.
Our team includes surveyors, engineers, architectural technicians and BIM specialists. That mix matters because the information captured on site is often only the first step. The final drawings, point cloud or model still need to work for the architect, engineer, contractor or developer using them.
By keeping surveying and modelling connected, we can plan the survey around the intended deliverables rather than treating site capture and digital production as separate jobs.
What we do
From Existing Conditions to Usable Project Information
Depending on the scope, we can support straightforward measured drawing packages or more detailed Scan-to-BIM and Revit requirements.
Point Cloud Capture
Registered 3D scan data for detailed review, remote coordination and downstream modelling.
2D CAD Drawings
Floor plans, roof plans, elevations and sections prepared in practical formats for design teams.
Revit Modelling
3D Revit models developed from survey and point cloud data to an agreed level of detail.
Topographical Support
Measured building and topographical scopes can be combined where surrounding site information is needed.
Flexible Deliverables
Outputs can include DWG, PDF, RVT, IFC and registered point cloud formats depending on project requirements.
Our approach
More Than Just Site Measurements
A measured survey often becomes the base information for everything that follows, from planning drawings and refurbishment design to structural work and BIM coordination.
That is why we do not treat every property or project in the same way.
Project purpose firstWe understand what the survey will be used for before deciding what needs to be captured.
Level of detail agreed earlyThe scope is matched to the required drawings, model and project stage.
Access and limitations consideredRestricted areas, occupied spaces and difficult geometry are considered as part of the survey plan.
No unnecessary informationThe aim is useful information, not simply producing the largest possible data set.
Integrated workflow
Surveying and Modelling Under One Team
One of the strongest advantages of the Survey2Plan workflow is that the people producing the drawings and models understand the survey information behind them.
Complex Existing Buildings
Irregular walls, roof geometry, level changes and unusual existing conditions can be reflected rather than unnecessarily simplified.
Historic Details
Mouldings, vaulted ceilings, splayed openings and other visible architectural features can be captured where the scope requires them.
Visible Structural & MEP Elements
Beams, columns, ducts, pipework and other visible elements can be incorporated where required for coordination.
How we work
A Clear Process From Scope to Delivery
Our workflow is designed to keep the purpose of the survey connected to the final deliverables.
Define
Review the project, required coverage, level of detail and outputs.
Capture
Complete the site survey using appropriate measured survey and scanning equipment.
Build
Process the survey data into the agreed drawings, point cloud or model.
Validate
Check deliverables against the available survey information before issue.
Deliver
Issue the agreed files with support available after delivery.
Why choose us
Project-Focused, Not One-Size-Fits-All
The scope of a measured building survey should depend on what happens next. A planning project, detailed refurbishment or Scan-to-BIM exercise will not always need the same information.
20+ years of combined experienceExperience across surveying, engineering, architectural technology and BIM workflows.
Advanced survey technology3D laser scanners, total stations and GNSS are used where appropriate.
Clear scope before attendanceWe agree what needs to be captured and delivered before the site visit.
2D and 3D capabilityFrom CAD drawings to registered point clouds and Revit models.
Quality checking before issueDeliverables are reviewed before they are sent to the client.
Support after deliveryOur team remains available for questions and agreed revisions after issue.
Experience
Working Across Different Building Types
Our project experience includes residential, commercial, mixed-use, education and historic properties, from straightforward measured drawing packages to detailed construction-stage Revit models.
Residential
Renovations, extensions, conversions and detailed existing-condition surveys.
Commercial & Mixed-Use
Existing layouts, structural information and coordination-ready Revit outputs.
Historic & Listed Buildings
Detailed architectural information for conservation, planning and design work.
Coverage
Manchester-Based, Working Across the UK
Survey2Plan is based in Manchester and supports measured building survey projects throughout the UK.
We regularly work across the North West and travel nationally where the project requires it.
