Work with precise measurements of any building in Portsmouth with a MIC Surveys Ltd. measured building survey

A measured building survey from MIC Surveys Ltd. will equip your team with full and accurate statistics on any building in Portsmouth. No matter what the size and type of the building, our RICS accredited surveyors can collect the data you need.

Before we start a measured building survey we take a deep dive into the project you’re working on, so we know exactly what data you need. We’ve been carrying out measured building surveys in Portsmouth for more than twenty years, so we know exactly what it takes to build a comprehensive and detailed report.

Armed with the data we gather, you’ll be able to make informed decisions throughout the building, and are less likely to make potentially expensive mistakes. To make things easier, we’ll provide the data in whatever format works best for you, whether that means floor plans, elevations or a building cross section.

The document we deliver will act as a reference point from the start of a project and throughout. Contact us today to ask any questions you might have and to arrange a free, no obligation quote.

Our setting out services will help your Portsmouth construction project to get off to the best start

No matter how large or small your Portsmouth construction project is, you can get it off to the best possible start with MIC Surveys Ltd. setting out services. We have the experience and expertise needed to set your building out clearly and accurately.

We’ve spent more than twenty years delivering setting out services in Portsmouth and beyond. We’ve developed a customer-focused approach to delivering tailored setting out, using the latest and best surveying equipment.

If needed, we can travel to your site at short notice and work with your crew to set your building out. We spend time studying CAD drawings of your project in depth, so that we have a full architectural understanding of your plans and intentions.

When we finish setting your business out the features above and below ground will be marked out clearly and positioned carefully. The distances and angles of the walls of your building will correspond exactly to the plans, and everything will be straight, level and in line with planning regulations.

Working on setting out with our RICS accredited surveyors hugely minimises the risk of making the kind of high impact mistakes that could prove costly as the building goes up. In simple terms, your building will be far more likely to be finished on time and in budget if you come to us for setting out services.

A MIC Surveys Ltd. drone survey provides a unique and high value insight into your Portsmouth

Here at MIC Surveys Ltd., our qualifications for delivering drone surveys include having certified drone pilots with GVC (General VLOS Certificate) and A2CofC (A2 Certificate of Competency) Certificates.

The drone qualifications of our surveyors mean that we have the skills and training needed to carry out full and accurate drone surveys of construction and engineering projects in Portsmouth and beyond. The technology enables us to gather detailed information safely and at speed over large areas.

Once gathered, the in-depth data from a drone survey will be interpreted by our RICS accredited surveyors. The results will include material calculations and precise cost estimates at the outset of any project.

Accurate and detailed estimates of this kind will minimise the risk of your builders and architects encountering cost-related delays at a later stage. In addition, drone surveys are useful in terms of monitoring compounded earthworks.

With the data collected from a drone survey of compounded earthworks, it should be possible to calculate estimates for costs including labour, overheads and equipment.

As a project develops, a drone survey from MIC Surveys Ltd. can be used to track the progress being made. A drone can quickly cover the whole of a site, looking out for bottlenecks in the work being done and tracking stockpiles of items. It can also be used to gain visual access to parts of a building which would otherwise be difficult to reach.

Contact us to find out how a drone survey could transform your view of a construction or engineering project. Whether it takes an overview of the whole project or zooms in on specific aspects, your done survey will deliver unique insights.

Minimise your risk of errors and associated costs

Investing in a qualified setting out engineer will minimise the risk of errors, and their associated costs, in the future, saving you time and money and ensuring you can meet your construction project milestones.
