Why a Site Survey Is Worth Every Penny
A full site survey isn’t just a formality it’s the foundation of a successful build. Whether you’re planning a industrial unit, agricultural unit or custom steel-framed building, we assess every detail to ensure your project is practical, compliant, and future-proof.
Our experienced designers will:
- Evaluate site access and delivery logistics
- Assess ground conditions and base suitability
- Check for integration with existing buildings
- Identify planning or environmental constraints
It’s a small investment that can save you thousands in delays, redesigns, or groundwork surprises.
What’s Included in the Survey?
Your survey is carried out by a qualified Steel Building Designer using laser-accurate digital equipment. We don’t just measure—we listen, advise, and plan with you.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Half-day on-site visit (plus travel time)
- Photographs and precise measurements of the proposed build area
- Face-to-face consultation to understand your goals and answer your questions
- Detailed input for our design engineers to create accurate, tailored plans
What We Look For – The Questions That Shape Your Build
Ground Conditions
- What type of soil is on-site?
- How deep do the foundations need to be?
- Are there underground pipes, drains, or utilities to avoid?
For larger or multi-storey buildings, we may recommend a geotechnical soil report to support accurate groundwork planning.
Access and Logistics
- Will you need access for large vehicles or plant?
- Could the new building block parking or emergency access?
- Do you need permission to cross neighbouring land
We’ll help you navigate access rights, planning regulations, and practical site use.
Nearby Restrictions
- Are there listed buildings, protected sites, or conservation areas nearby?
- Could your project impact local wildlife, trees, or heritage assets?
We carry out preliminary planning checks before your visit to flag any potential issues early.
Building Orientation
- What’s the best position for sunlight, views, and energy efficiency?
- Could your building block light to neighbouring properties?
- Is there room for future expansion?
We design with the long-term in mind—so your building works today and tomorrow.
