Turn Site Data Into Accurate Existing Drawings, Fast

A measured building survey is only as useful as the drawings that come out of it. Scanning a building takes a day; turning millions of points into clean floor plans, elevations and sections can take a week of a technician's time. For survey practices, architects and property consultants, that draughting work is what holds up the project, from refurbishment design to planning submissions.

Our measured building survey CAD service handles that work for you. Send the point cloud, total station data or measured sketches, and our draughting team produces the drawings in your template, to the level of detail your brief sets. We also offer floor plan drawing services for lease, sales and space-planning purposes, and planning drawings services for UK applications once the design is fixed.

Send scans by the end of your day (GMT/BST), receive drawings by the next working dayLarger buildings are delivered floor by floor so you can check as we go.

Measured Survey Drawings

What We Deliver

Existing-condition drawings and models, at the scale and detail your brief requires.

Floor Plans

Dimensioned floor plans with walls, openings, door swings, stairs, fixtures, room names and floor levels, typically at 1:50 or 1:100.

Elevations

External and internal elevations showing openings, materials, levels, roof lines and features, drawn from scan data or measured photographs.

Sections

Building sections through key areas with floor-to-ceiling heights, structure, stairs and roof build-up.

Roof and Ceiling Plans

Roof plans with pitches, ridges and gutters, and reflected ceiling plans with ceiling heights, bulkheads and fittings.

Planning Drawings

Existing and proposed plans and elevations, site location and block plans, prepared from the survey base and your design.

Revit Models from Point Clouds

Existing-building Revit models built from laser scans at the level of detail you specify, with sheets generated from the model.

Software We Use

We work natively in the platform your practice uses. Point clouds are indexed in Autodesk ReCap and referenced into AutoCAD or Revit, so the drawings are traced directly from the scan rather than estimated. MicroStation deliverables are available where a client requires DGN files.

Drawn to Your Standards and Your Specification

Every practice has its own look. We set up your title block, layers, line weights, colours, hatches and annotation before the first job, and draught to the specification your project requires, such as RICS-aligned measured survey specifications or a client's CAD and BIM manual.

Process

Our Measured Building Survey CAD Process

Send survey data

Point cloud, total station data or measured sketches, photos and your template.

Agree scope and detail

Drawing list, scales and level of detail, with a fixed price in GBP and a delivery date.

Draught from the data

Plans, elevations and sections traced from the scan or measurements, floor by floor.

Check and deliver

Multi-level quality check against the source data, then DWG, RVT and PDF delivery.

Turnaround and Quotes

We offer fast turnaround: floor plans for a typical house or small commercial unit are usually returned by the next working day. Larger buildings and Revit models are scheduled by scope and delivered in stages, with the delivery dates agreed before work starts.

All work is quoted at a fixed price in pounds sterling, per drawing or per project, so you can price the survey to your client with confidence. See how our process works.

FAQ

Measured Building Survey CAD FAQ

Floor plans, elevations, sections, roof plans and reflected ceiling plans, as 2D CAD drawings or a Revit model. We can also prepare existing and proposed planning drawings from the survey base once your architect or designer has finalised the design.

Both. We draught from laser scan point clouds (E57, RCP and similar formats), from total station data, and from site sketches with tape or laser measurements and photographs. Point clouds give the most complete result for complex or historic buildings.

We draught to the specification your project requires, which is often RICS-aligned, as well as to your own CAD standards: layers, line weights, title block and level of detail. We do not certify surveys; your surveyor remains responsible for the survey and its accuracy.

Yes. We draft clear floor plans with room names and dimensions and can show areas measured by the method your brief specifies. Area calculations are prepared from your measurements for your surveyor to check.

Yes. We build Revit models of existing buildings from point clouds at the level of detail you specify, with plans, elevations and sections generated from the model, in your template.
