HRBs / BSR (High Risk Buildings)

High-accuracy surveys and design support for High Risk Buildings (HRBs), delivered using advanced drone technology, mobile LiDAR scanning, and in-house architectural expertise.

Everything is completed in-house. No outsourcing. No delays between survey and design.

Supporting Safer High Risk Buildings

Accurate building information is essential for the safe management, refurbishment, and compliance of High Risk Buildings. As building safety regulations continue to evolve, reliable survey data has never been more important.

Using advanced drone technology, mobile LiDAR scanning, and in-house architectural expertise, we capture complex buildings quickly and accurately, providing the information needed to support Building Safety Regulator submissions and compliant project delivery.

Built for Complex Building Environments

High Risk Buildings present unique surveying challenges, from restricted access and occupied buildings to complex façades, roof structures, and intricate internal layouts.

Using RTK drone technology, mobile LiDAR scanning, and advanced SLAM systems, we capture accurate building data quickly and safely, delivering coordinated information that supports design, compliance, and construction with minimal disruption.

Faster Data for BSR Applications

Building Safety Regulator submissions depend on accurate, coordinated building information. Outdated drawings and incomplete records can lead to delays, additional costs, and unnecessary site visits.

By combining surveying and architectural design within one in-house team, we produce coordinated drawings and documentation that streamline the submission process, reduce inconsistencies, and help projects progress more efficiently.

Advanced Survey Technology for High-Rise Buildings

Our investment in specialist surveying equipment allows us to operate safely across complex environments where traditional methods can be slow or impractical.

Our technology includes:

  • RTK-enabled drone surveying for highly accurate external data capture
  • Mobile LiDAR scanning for rapid internal and external surveying
  • SLAM technology for complex or GPS-restricted environments
  • Thermal imaging for identifying moisture ingress, insulation defects, and roof issues
  • High-density point cloud capture for accurate modelling and documentation

This combination enables us to survey large buildings efficiently while maintaining the accuracy required for complex design and compliance projects.

Reduced Disruption. Improved Safety.

Surveying occupied High Risk Buildings requires a safe and efficient approach. Our methods reduce the need for extensive scaffolding, minimise work at height, and limit disruption to residents and building users.

Using drone technology and mobile LiDAR scanning, we quickly capture accurate internal and external building data, creating a safer surveying process while helping projects stay on schedule.

From Survey to Design

Unlike many surveying providers, we combine surveying and architectural design within one in-house team. Captured survey data is transformed directly into coordinated drawings, digital models, and planning-ready documentation, removing unnecessary delays between project stages.

This integrated approach improves coordination and provides accurate, reliable information to support refurbishment, fire safety improvements, façade remediation, and Building Safety Regulator submissions.
