Measured building surveyors in Bowes Park
DrawingsDirect provides measured building surveys for Bowes Park and the wider N11 district from £200. You receive laser-measured existing plans that planning, building regulations and party wall drawings can all be drawn from. Haringey Council granted 30% of the 60 larger home extension prior approvals it determined in the two years to June 2026.

What you get from a Bowes Park measured survey
Existing plans, measured on site by laser and drawn to scale, for a fixed fee from £200. Where a project sits close to neighbours, a few centimetres on the survey can decide whether an extension fits, so the measurements are taken before any design work begins.
See the measured building survey service for the full description, or our pricing for what usually comes next.
Party wall notices and drawings start from the same measurements
Building near a shared boundary usually means telling the neighbours. The GOV.UK guide to party walls says you must tell your neighbours before building work near or on a shared property boundary, known as a party wall.
DrawingsDirect prepares and serves a party wall notice for £45 per adjoining owner. Party wall drawings, which are sections and details for the notices and the surveyors dealing with them, cost £195. The party wall notices and drawings page explains the service.


In the two years to June 2026, Haringey Council determined 60 prior approval applications for larger home extensions, granted 18 of them and so granted 30% (our analysis of MHCLG planning application statistics, table PS1).
Daylight and topographic surveys are different reports
A measured building survey is often confused with two other reports. A daylight assessment studies how much light reaches a window. A topographic survey maps ground levels and site features. A measured building survey records the building itself. If you need one of the first two, a measured survey will not replace it, though we can still measure the building your design starts from.
What Haringey has decided on larger extensions and certificates
In the two years to June 2026, Haringey Council determined 60 prior approval applications for larger home extensions, granted 18 of them and so granted 30% (our analysis of MHCLG planning application statistics, table PS1).
Over the same two years it decided 706 certificates of lawful development (our analysis of the same table).
The national register lists 33 conservation-area entries and 25 article 4 direction entries for Haringey (our analysis of MHCLG Planning Data Platform datasets, retrieved 14 August 2026). The register is incomplete for many councils, so an entry found is a lead and an empty result is not proof of absence; Haringey's conservation area map gives the answer for your road.
