Measured Building Surveys
We provide accurate measured building surveys for residential, commercial, and mixed-use properties across London and the South East. Our surveys capture precise internal and external dimensions, producing detailed floor plans, elevations, and sections to support planning, design, refurbishment, and property management.
Measured building surveys are essential for architects, property developers, engineers, and homeowners who require reliable existing building information. Using professional surveying equipment, including total stations and laser scanning technology, we record all visible features such as walls, doors, windows, ceiling heights, structural elements, and architectural details.
The collected survey data is processed into clear, fully layered CAD drawings, delivered in DWG and PDF formats. Revit models and point cloud data can also be provided on request. Our drawings are suitable for planning applications, architectural design, lease plans, refurbishment works, and construction projects.
We are committed to delivering accurate results, fast turnaround times, and clear communication throughout every stage of the project. Whether you require a survey of a small residential property or a large commercial building, 360 Measurements provides dependable measured survey services to help you move forward with confidence.

FAQ
What drawing scale do I need for my project?
The correct scale depends on your project stage:
- 1:100 – suitable for planning applications and general layout
- 1:50 – recommended for most architectural design and refurbishment projects
- 1:25 – used for detailed or heritage projects requiring high precision
If unsure, 1:50 scale is suitable for most projects.
What drawings are included in a measured building survey?
- Typical deliverables include:
- Floor plans
- Elevations
- Sections
- Fully layered CAD drawings (DWG + PDF)
- Revit models (optional)
How accurate is a measured building survey?
Our surveys are carried out using professional Trimble total stations and laser scanners, achieving accuracy typically within ±5mm to ±10mm depending on project requirements, building complexity, and drawing scale. All surveys are conducted in accordance with RICS guidance and industry best practices, ensuring reliable, consistent, and professional survey data suitable for architectural design, planning applications, and construction.
How long does a measured building survey take?
Most residential properties are surveyed in 2–6 hours, with drawings delivered within 2–5 working days depending on project size.
