Floor planning in Greenford UB6, measured on site
Floor planning in Greenford starts with a visit: we laser-measure every room of your UB6 house or flat and draw each level to scale, from £275. You get a plan you can hand to an estate agent, a solicitor or a lender, and the same survey can later carry an extension design.

A scaled plan of every level, taken from the building itself
A floor plan from DrawingsDirect is a dimensioned drawing of each storey of your home: room sizes, wall thicknesses, and where the doors, windows and stairs sit. Nothing is traced from an old brochure or guessed from photographs, because the plan is drawn from measurements taken in the property.
Greenford owners usually ask for one for a sale or letting listing, a lease plan for a flat, a record of the layout before a refurbishment, or simply to know what they have before deciding on building work. Tell us the use at the start and we draw to suit it, for example adding room areas for a marketing plan.
What happens on the survey visit
One of our team visits and measures each room with a laser distance meter rather than a tape, working through every floor you want drawn. Access to all rooms, including the loft hatch and any garage, keeps the plan complete and avoids a second trip.
The drawings are prepared back at the studio by chartered architectural technologists (MCIAT). Because there is no design to develop and nothing goes to the council, a floor plans instruction is a lighter piece of work than a planning set. Our guide to what a measured building survey records explains the difference if you are unsure which you need.
Ealing has 31 conservation-area entries on the national register, in our analysis of the MHCLG Planning Data Platform conservation area and Article 4 direction datasets.
What floor plans cost in Greenford
Our fixed fee for floor plans and a measured survey starts at £275. The final figure depends on the size of the home and how many floors are drawn, and we confirm it before the visit is booked, so there is no charge you have not agreed. The full list is on our pricing page.
Using the same survey to plan an extension in Ealing borough
Greenford is in the London Borough of Ealing, so any extension, loft or outbuilding is decided by Ealing Council. If you think you may build later, the measured survey behind your floor plan becomes the existing-layout drawing, and the proposal is drawn on top of it.
The council's recent workload shows which route people take. In the latest four quarters Ealing Council made 946 householder decisions and granted 825 of them, according to our analysis of MHCLG planning application statistics. Prior approvals made up 55% of those householder decisions, and the council decided 96% of the remaining householder applications within the statutory eight-week period.
Two quieter routes matter for Greenford semis and terraces. Over the latest eight quarters, our analysis of MHCLG planning application statistics shows Ealing Council determined 193 larger home extension prior approvals and refused 155 of them, so a single-storey rear extension under that scheme needs accurate drawings and a careful check of the limits. The same figures record 1,473 certificates of lawful development decided by the council, the route many owners use to confirm that a loft or rear extension is permitted development. The government's permitted development technical guidance sets out those limits.
Check designations and the appeal record before you commit
Ealing has 31 conservation-area entries on the national register, in our analysis of the MHCLG Planning Data Platform conservation area and Article 4 direction datasets. That register can be incomplete, so look up your street on Ealing Council's own conservation area map, and ask the council about any Article 4 direction, before you rely on permitted development.
If an application is refused, an appeal is possible. Householder appeals against Ealing Council were allowed in 43% of decided cases, according to our analysis of the Planning Inspectorate Casework Database. That is a record of past cases, not a forecast for yours, and a clear set of drawings from the start is the better use of your time. You can read more about the service on our London floor plans page.
