Surveying Consett
Site information for industrial, residential and rural-fringe projects.
We support architects, engineers, developers, contractors and property owners throughout Consett with accurate site plans, levels, contours and 3D survey data.
From occupied residential property and commercial premises to former industrial land, greenfield plots, steep sites, highways and larger developments, every survey is scoped around the project’s intended use.
Survey methods are selected around the site, programme, access and deliverables, with field data checked before issue in practical CAD, PDF and 3D formats.
