What is a Measured Survey?

A Measured Survey is a drawing showing the dimensions, locations and permanent features of your property, which can be a building or land.

The dimensions are usually drawn up to a scale of 1:100 for buildings, 1:50 for listed buildings and 1:250 for the land.

The location is determined by GPS (GNSS) or can be created locally specifically for your property. The positions are relative to their reference points, i.e. GPS or the local establish control points.

Permanent features can include:

  • walls
  • windows
  • doors
  • beams
  • columns
  • built in cabinets/ wardrobe
  • ponds
  • trees
  • pavement
  • street furniture
