Who we survey for in Manchester

• Developers. You're converting mills, warehouses and offices, and need every irregular floor and column captured before layouts are fixed.
• Architects. You need a dependable Revit or CAD base model so your design team aren't chasing errors in old drawings.

• Estates and FM teams at universities, hospitals and commercial portfolios who need accurate, current plans.
• Homeowners and landlords. You need a boundary, topo or measured survey for extensions and conversions.

Manchester in brief

Manchester has a lot of red-brick mills and warehouses, Victorian commercial buildings and post-war offices, and plenty of them are being converted or refurbished. Cast-iron columns, uneven floors and decades of alterations are exactly where scanning beats a tape measure.
