Rutland

Laser scanning in Rutland

Gardens on slopes, stone houses that are never square, and new homes on the edge of Oakham and Uppingham. Rutland is a county where accurate measurement makes the design work.

Covering: Oakham, Uppingham, Ketton, Cottesmore, Empingham, Barleythorpe and the Rutland villages, all within our standard travel radius. Every Dimensure service is available.

Gardens and period homes

Rutland's villages are built in ironstone and limestone, often on rising ground, with walled gardens, terraces and steps. That's beautiful to live with and hard to measure by hand. A garden scan records every level, wall and tree so a garden designer can work with the slope rather than discover it, and a measured building survey captures the uneven walls and deep window reveals of an older house exactly as they are.

New homes in Oakham and Uppingham

Oakham has grown steadily, with developments such as Barleythorpe on its north-western edge, and Uppingham and the larger villages have seen new phases too. For the groundworkers and builders on those sites we offer plot and oversite checks, road layer scans and tarmac depth surveys, the same as anywhere else we work.

Questions we get asked

Do you cover the whole of Rutland?

Yes: Oakham, Uppingham, Ketton, Cottesmore, Empingham, Barleythorpe and every village in between, all within our standard travel radius.

Why scan a Rutland garden before designing it?

Many Rutland gardens slope, sit behind stone walls or surround older houses with low damp-proof courses. A scan captures every level and wall so the design works on the ground and the landscaper's quote is based on real quantities.

Can you survey a stone cottage for an extension?

Yes. Ironstone and limestone cottages are rarely square or level, which is exactly what a laser scan records. Your architect gets accurate plans and elevations, plus the point cloud.
