Are your engineering surveys compliant with industry standards?

Yes. Our work aligns with RICS guidance, PAS 128 for utilities, and construction QA requirements. We also produce deliverables suitable for planning, certification, design coordination, and contractor sign-off.

What deliverables will I receive?

Depending on the service, you can expect:

CAD or BIM-ready drawings
Machine-control files (Trimble/Leica)
As-built reports and compliance checks
Volumetric/cut-fill calculations
Deformation and movement monitoring reports
Control point schedules and QA documentation

All deliverables are clear, practical, and formatted so they slot straight into your workflow and software ecosystem – AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D, MicroStation, BIM platforms, and machine control systems.

Can you work with my existing survey control?

Yes. We can validate, enhance, or re-establish existing site control networks. If needed, we can also provide a full control re-survey to ensure the entire site is working from a consistent, accurate baseline.

Can you mobilise quickly for urgent construction work?

Yes – we regularly support contractors with rapid mobilisation, short-notice visits, and phased attendance. If you have a tight programme, night shifts, or critical path activities, we can plan around your schedule.

Do you supply machine control files?

Absolutely. We build machine-control-ready terrain models from your design information and supply fully validated files for graders, dozers, and excavators. Ongoing updates can be provided as the design evolves.

How do you keep sensitive asset data secure?

We apply strict data security protocols and clear ownership policies. Your information is stored, handled, and shared securely in line with industry and regulatory standards.

I’m not sure which services I need - can you advise?

Absolutely. Many clients come to us unsure of the exact specification required. Our consultancy-first approach means we interpret your project needs and prescribe the right survey scope – saving you time and reducing risk.
