Measured Building Surveys
Peterborough
What is a Measured Building Survey?
A Measured Building Survey will provide you with accurate measurements of key features of your building. It is essential if you plan to refurbish, re-plan, or extend the building in any way.
The measurement data is then presented on 2D Drawings or a 3D Building Information Model (BIM), perfect for your designers to work up their proposed schemes.
How Much Does a Measured Building Survey Cost?
For projects in Peterborough, the cost can be as low as £1,450 + VAT for a small sized plot. This price will of course increase dependant on distance, size, and the level of detail required to record what you need.
