PROJECT BRIEF

The client needed a measured survey and existing drawings for a ground floor maisonette in Wandsworth to support a single-storey wrap-around extension scheme, with drainage information treated as a priority. Early in the brief, we clarified the survey extent because the address presented as more than one unit, and the client confirmed only the ground floor maisonette was required.

The survey also needed to account for drainage-related items typically required at early design stage (such as SVP locations, manholes, and drain runs where visible). During the site visit, our surveyor noted there was no visible manhole in the front or rear gardens, which was recorded for the project file and reflected in the documentation.

WORK COMPLETED

We coordinated access and attendance details ahead of the appointment and carried out the on-site measured survey as scheduled. The scope focused on producing reliable base information for design development, including the areas relevant to the proposed wrap-around extension, and noting any visible drainage features that could influence layout and connection assumptions.

Following the site visit, we produced a draft drawings pack and shared it for review. After confirmation, we issued the final drawing set as both CAD (DWG) and PDF files, alongside the site photographs, so the client team could progress with design, coordination, and onward approvals as required.

Confirmed scope for the ground floor maisonette only, avoiding unnecessary survey coverage.

Captured drainage-related features required for a wrap-around extension design.

Issued a draft drawing pack for review before finalising.

OUTCOME

The project concluded with a complete existing-drawings package for the ground floor maisonette in Wandsworth, tailored to support a wrap-around extension design. Key scope decisions were confirmed early, drainage-related constraints were recorded (including the absence of visible manholes in the gardens), and the final DWG/PDF outputs plus photographs were issued for the client team’s next steps. This project was delivered as part of our Measured Survey service in Wandsworth, supporting homeowners and architects with accurate Existing Drawings for extension projects.

STEPS

01.

Confirm brief and survey scope

We confirmed the required outputs and clarified the extent of the property to be surveyed, as the address appeared to include more than one unit. The client confirmed the scope was the ground floor maisonette only, with drainage-related information treated as important for the extension design work.

02.

Schedule access and site coordination

We agreed an attendance window and shared surveyor contact details to streamline access on the day. We also requested the on-site contact information so any last-minute coordination could be handled quickly, ensuring the visit proceeded smoothly within the agreed timeframe.

03.

On-site measured building survey

Our surveyor completed the measured survey on site, capturing the information required for producing existing drawings. Drainage-related items were checked where possible; during the visit we recorded that there was no visible manhole in the front or rear gardens.

04.

CAD drafting and draft issue

We converted survey data into a structured set of existing drawings and issued a draft drawing pack for review. This allowed the client team to verify key elements and confirm the drawing set met the needs of the wrap-around extension project before final release.
