Survey intelligence for smarter office investment, refurbishment & asset management.

With increasing pressure to improve sustainability performance, meet EPC requirements and enhance occupier experience, many property owners are prioritising refurbishment, retrofit and repositioning projects over new-build developments. Rising construction costs, higher borrowing rates and ongoing planning constraints have accelerated investment in existing commercial office assets.

Whether supporting a refurbishment programme, portfolio review, acquisition strategy or asset repositioning project, Lane & Frankham delivers accurate surveying services across commercial office buildings of all sizes. By providing reliable spatial data and building intelligence, we help landlords, developers, investors and asset managers make informed decisions that maximise asset value and long-term performance.

Our services

Using the latest laser scanning and surveying technologies, we efficiently capture accurate building information while minimising disruption to occupiers and day-to-day operations. Our survey deliverables provide clients and design teams with a comprehensive understanding of their existing assets:

  • Laser scanning and point cloud capture
  • Measured building surveys
  • ESG and EPC baseline surveys
  • 360° virtual tours and walkthroughs
  • GIA, GEA and IPMS area measurements
  • 2D CAD drawings and 3D Revit models
  • Underground utility mapping
  • UAV surveys
  • Topographical surveys
  • Solar PV and renewable energy feasibility surveys.

Our survey data also supports the assessment and planning of critical building systems and infrastructure, including HVAC, BMS, MEP services, lighting, lifts, water and drainage networks, façades, cladding and glazing.

A collaborative partner for commercial office projects

We work closely with our clients to provide the survey information they need at every stage of the asset lifecycle.

From early-stage feasibility studies and capital expenditure planning through to refurbishment, retrofit and ongoing asset management, our survey methodologies are tailored to programme requirements, project objectives and budget considerations.

We recognise that many office projects require practical, targeted survey outputs rather than highly detailed modelling or extensive drawing packages. Our experienced survey consultants advise on the most appropriate deliverables for each project, ensuring the information captured today continues to support future development, operational and investment decisions.

By providing accurate existing building data from the outset, we help reduce project risk, improve design coordination and support the successful delivery of workplace improvements, sustainability initiatives and asset optimisation programmes.

Above all, we combine advanced survey technology with extensive commercial property expertise to help clients make confident, data-led decisions that enhance building performance, occupier experience and long-term asset value.
