A survey (survey plan) is the operation of measuring, drawing and representing to scale the elements of a construction, of an ensemble of constructions or of a constructive detail.  It represents an essential part that must precede any intervention to an existing building. The survey (survey plan) is an essential part of the drafting of intervention projects for existing buildings: consolidations, rehabilitations, refunctioning, transformations, etc. In addition to this practical purpose, the survey (survey plan) represents a research instrument, as it highlights the defining elements of the space, the typology of the plan, the composition of the facades, the decoration and construction elements. Surveys performed with the help of laser scanning equipment have a high level of precision, which facilitates superior technical detail. Works of this type – survey plan – can be of many types and can contain an array of graphical and text information, depending on their requirements. Thus, the result can be a survey plan that contains general quotas, the destinations and areas, as well as information with regard to the width and height of the empty spaces and parapets (what we refer to as a standard survey). In addition, another type of survey – the architectural survey – can be represented by a series of plans, facades and sections for various levels with a high degree of detail and information with regard to the fittings, equipment, installation, furniture, etc. The architectural survey – a more complex work – is not the object of our presentation.

The purpose of a survey (survey plan)?

The purpose of a survey plan is to realize a technical documentation that is as precise and complete as possible for buildings with regard to which there is no available data (plans, sections, facades, details), as well as for those the initial project of which exists, but, for various reasons (execution errors, transformations, degradation) is no longer in accordance with the real situation.

The price of a survey plan/building survey/apartment survey depends on the area and the level of detail. For an accurate evaluation, a visit to the site and the establishment of the working conditions (the content of a survey plan) are generally necessary.

For information purposes, the price of topography measurements in order to draft a survey plan for a normal apartment is around RON 90 (for Bucharest and Ilfov County).

For real-estate agencies, land register companies, including certified natural persons and other types of clients with a significant work volume, discounts can be negotiated.  

For commercial spaces, storage/manufacturing spaces, open-space type office buildings and other buildings with a special destination, reduced compartmentalization and/or a very large surface, the prices shall be negotiated based on the requirements.   

The prices are valid for standard surveys in Bucharest.
