Welcome to Lewis Surveying Associates

Whether you want a kitchen extension or full house renovation we can generate accurate scale floor plans, elevations, and cross sections. Using AutoCAD to create technical drawings of the existing layout we are then able to produce design solutions for your home extension or renovation.

Working alongside our clients, we can create accurate detailed CAD drawings including among other objects; man-made features, physical boundary details, tree positions, contours and natural terrain.

We can provide a full range of drawings from the initial concepts sketches through to detailed design for planning and construction. We have extensive experience in the adaptation and extension of existing buildings, old and new. Using both hand drawn and Autocad drawings we can capture a design solution that meets the needs of the Client and any Regulatory approvals process.

Our experience extends over 20 years as consultant to The National Trust, English Heritage and private property owners. Over that period, expertise in survey and conservation planning has developed to embrace the repair and restoration of historic structures, including Ancient Monuments, Listed Country houses and Commercial premises.

With the latest developments in 3D modelling software we are able to use the photogrammetric processing of digital images to generate 3D spatial data.

We can provide Clients with an in depth Building Survey report to support their decisions to buy or rent a new house or commercial premises.

Projects have covered a wide range from the repair of Wordsworth House and Gardens in Cockermouth following the floods of 2010 to the repair of a storm damaged Grade I listed office block in Newcastle.

We have achieved significant success in obtaining Planning Permissions for developments; for Historic Properties, Rural Buildings in Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Properties in National Parks as well as for Urban Housing and Commercial Premises.

Our qualified team can assist both landlords and tenants through the claims and liabilities for repairs arising both during and on the termination of a lease. At the beginning of the lease we can also help inform the Client of their responsibilities for repair and support any tenancy agreement negotiations.

We have the depth of experience to provide accurate estimates for rebuilding costs needed for adequate insurance cover. This is especially important for listed buildings which will likely require reinstatement with traditional materials and techniques.
