How the Process Works

1. Tell us about the site  – Send the Birmingham site address, postcode, access arrangements and a brief outline of what the project involves, along with any drawings, photos or consultant requirements you already have.

2. We define the right survey approach – Cura Surveys assess the information provided and recommend the most suitable survey scope, whether you need measured building drawings, topographical data, 3D laser scanning, BIM outputs or a combination of services.

3. The survey is carried out on site – The team visit the property or development site with the appropriate equipment for the brief, capturing the measurements, levels and existing-site details needed for accurate project information.

4. Your survey data is processed – The captured information is turned into the agreed outputs, such as floor plans, elevations, sections, DWG files, PDFs, point clouds or Revit models.

5. You receive clear, usable files – Cura Surveys deliver the completed files in the agreed format, giving your architect, consultant or project team reliable information to support design, planning, refurbishment or construction work.

Frequently Asked Questions

In most cases, yes. If your project involves altering, extending or refurbishing an existing building, your architect will need accurate existing plans before design work can progress properly.

A measured building survey gives them reliable floor plans, elevations and sections, reducing the risk of design changes caused by missing or inaccurate information.

A measured building survey records the building itself, including internal layouts, elevations, sections, roof plans and key structural details.

A topographical survey records the land around the building, including levels, boundaries, access points, trees, drainage features and surrounding structures.

Many Birmingham redevelopment, extension and planning projects can benefit from both surveys.

Timescales depend on the size and complexity of the property, the survey outputs needed and current availability.

Some straightforward measured building or topographical surveys can be turned around faster than larger sites requiring detailed elevations, sections, point clouds or Revit models.
