When embarking on a new construction project, having accurate data about the site is crucial. This is exactly why our recent project on Ainsdale Road, Leicester, required a comprehensive topographical survey.
Our client needed precise measurements and details about the land before beginning construction on a new property, and that’s exactly what they got!
Why Was The Survey Needed?
The client required an extensive survey to determine:
-
Ground levels – essential for laying a solid foundation.
-
Road width – crucial for logistics and site accessibility.
-
Roof ridges and surrounding buildings – to ensure the new build aligns well with the existing environment.
What Is a Topographical Survey?
A topographical survey, sometimes called a land survey, provides an accurate representation of natural and man-made features within a specified area. These surveys are undertaken using precision equipment and the latest technology.
Topographical Surveys have a variety of uses, including clearly showing land boundaries, flood risk modelling, site levels, building planning and utility mapping.
