Services
Topographical Surveys
We conduct detailed topographical surveys capturing natural and man-made features of land. Our surveys provide accurate elevation data and terrain models essential for construction planning and development projects. Utilising advanced GPS and laser technology ensures precision for both small and large-scale sites.
Setting Out
Our setting out services establish precise positioning for construction projects. We translate design plans into physical markers on-site, ensuring accurate placement of buildings, roads and infrastructure. Regular site visits maintain alignment with original survey data throughout project phases.
Measured Surveys
We produce detailed measured surveys of existing buildings using 3D laser scanning technology. Our surveys include floor plans, elevations and sectional drawings for renovation or documentation purposes. Data is delivered in CAD format compatible with architectural design software.
Elevation Surveys
Our elevation surveys capture vertical dimensions of buildings and structures. This data supports architectural design and compliance assessments for commercial properties and heritage buildings. We provide scaled drawings showing architectural features and material details.
Sectional Drawings
We create detailed sectional drawings revealing structural composition and spatial relationships. These drawings assist architects with renovation projects and planning applications. Our surveys include both horizontal and vertical cross-sections of buildings and terrain features.
