Get a QuoteChester has one of the highest densities of listed and heritage buildings in England — the Roman walls, the Rows, the cathedral precinct and Georgian residential streets generate constant demand for measured building surveys. Conservation officers at Cheshire West and Chester Council expect precise existing building data before any works to listed or conservation area properties are considered. 105 Surveys delivers laser scanned measured building surveys across Chester, Wrexham, Ellesmere Port, Northwich, Malpas, Frodsham, Tarporley, Neston, Hoole and the wider Cheshire West area, with CAD drawings delivered in as little as 5 working days from the site visit.
Advanced laser scanning captures every dimension to within 2 to 5mm, so the drawings your Chester design team works from reflect exactly what is on site.
Every drawing is quality checked before delivery. Open the file and trust the numbers. Supplied in your preferred format and to your practice drawing standards.
CAD ready outputs delivered in as little as 5 working days from site visit across Chester and Cheshire West, keeping your project on programme from day one.

Cheshire West and Chester Council has some of the most rigorous listed building and conservation area policies in the region. Accurate measured building surveys are essential for any application involving works to listed buildings, conservation area properties and buildings within the city's historic core. We ensure every survey delivered in Chester meets the accuracy standards expected at planning validation stage.
Before design work begins on any existing building in Chester — whether an extension, conversion, refurbishment or change of use — you need accurate existing drawings to design from. We deliver CAD files you can open and work in immediately, in your preferred format and to your drawing standards.
Planning applications for works to existing buildings across Chester require accurate existing and proposed drawings. Cheshire West and Chester Council has some of the most rigorous listed building and conservation area policies in the region. Accurate measured building surveys are essential for any application involving works to listed buildings, conservation area properties and buildings within the city's historic core. We ensure every survey meets validation requirements first time.
If you're buying, converting or refurbishing in Chester, accurate survey data at the start saves money and time down the line. We've worked on listed buildings, conservation area properties and heritage schemes across Cheshire West.
Chester is one of the most conservation-sensitive cities in England. The City Centre Conservation Area covers virtually the entire historic core, and the city's Roman street grid — still largely intact — means that almost every project within the walls involves a listed or curtilage-listed building. Chester's Rows, the unique two-level medieval shopping streets, represent a survey challenge found nowhere else in the country: projecting upper-floor galleries, medieval timber frames behind Georgian and Victorian facades, and floor levels that step and vary from bay to bay.
Historic England guidance for Grade I and Grade II* buildings specifies that measured surveys must record not just plan geometry but wall thicknesses, structural irregularities, and historic fabric in sufficient detail to support a heritage statement. Our Chester surveys are produced to this standard. We work closely with architects and heritage consultants to agree the survey scope before site visit so the drawings support both the design process and the planning submission.
Cheshire West and Chester Council's validation requirements are among the most thorough in the North West. For schemes within designated conservation areas, they expect existing condition surveys at 1:50 scale for principal elevations, with wall thickness records and annotations of historic features. We ensure every survey we deliver in Chester meets these requirements without the need for supplementary site visits.
We cover Chester city centre, Hoole, Handbridge, Christleton, Ellesmere Port, Northwich, Winsford, Neston and the wider Cheshire West area. If your project involves a listed building, a scheduled monument, or a building within the Chester city walls, call us to discuss the survey scope before instruction.
We cover Chester and surrounding areas including Ellesmere Port, Northwich, Wirral, Wrexham and Tarporley, and more across Cheshire West. We also deliver measured building surveys across the wider North West. Call 0151 272 3479 or email info@105surveys.com to see how we can help with your project.
