2017 was an interesting year for CD Surveys Ltd. In general, the construction industry seemed to be rather quiet and with a quiet start to the year for CD Surveys things inevitably picked up and soon enough we were. Offering a wide range of services including; Land Surveys, Topographical Surveys, Site Engineering, Measured Building Surveys, Section 38/104/278 Adoption Surveys and CAD Services (Computer-Aided Design). We have always been a customer-focused company, since starting CD Surveys Ltd back in 1992.
Services
Features such as trees, buildings, pathways, roads, gullies, manholes, utility poles, walls, etc are accurately surveyed. Provision of the above information can be issued in 3 dimensions for input into a BIM system for total management of a building or construction project. We carry out all topographical surveys in accordance with the standard 'Topographical Survey Specifications' as set by The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), the Land Surveyor and the Architect (LSA) and the Manual of Contract Documents for Highways Works, Volume 5, Section 1, Highway Agency and Department of Transport.
Proposed construction needs to be in the right place and at the right height. You will need our professional team to provide services such as site setting out of grids, datums, piles, etc. Volumes and verticality surveys can also be provided. Building monitoring or any structure which may 'move' should be checked for movement.
We have a wealth of experience when it comes to measured building surveys at CD Surveys Ltd. Our experienced surveyors have seen many changes in the way measured building surveys are carried out, from a tape measure, pen and paper to the modern technology of using 3D laser scanners. Over the years our team of surveyors have worked on thousands of measured building surveys including (but not limited to) hospitals, schools, government buildings, offices, residential dwellings, universities, retail centres and churches.
The relatively new technology of 3D Laser Scanning is a non-contact technology that digitally captures the shape of physical objects using a line of laser light. 3D laser scanners create 'point clouds' of data from the surface of an object. In other words, 3D laser scanning is a way to capture a physical object's exact size and shape.

We engaged CD Surveys to produce a Topographical Survey for a property we recently purchased. Throughout the project the team were a pleasure to deal with. They quickly understood our requirements, made an appropriate recommendation at a competitive price and once confirmed, the work was carried out quickly and accurately. I have no hesitation in recommending CD Surveys, the whole process from start to finish was flawless, I wouldn't change a thing.

Andrew and his team squeezed us in at short notice, were very helpful onsite including being flexible enough to add an area or two outside of their scope (without fuss or any additional charge). After the onsite survey they turned the drawings around quicker than promised and were great communicators and very patient (when I was hassling them). We also found them to price competitively. Very happy.

We recently contracted CD Surveys to produce floor plans for all the properties in our portfolio in the area of Canterbury, Kent. We also required three site plans for properties which we propose developing this year. It only required one short meeting for us to brief their surveyor who immediately understood our requirements. The job was completed on time and the results were excellent.
Their equipment was state-of-the-art and the surveyors highly professional and knowledgeable. It was a pleasure dealing with CD Surveys and we would highly recommend them to anyone needing surveying work. - Apthorp Record Housing
