Avoid Delays. Avoid Rejections. Using Our 3-Step Process

The Land Registry isn’t forgiving — one small mistake and your plans go straight back, wasting weeks and piling on costs. That’s why we’ve stripped the process down to four clear steps that get your plans accepted first time, so you can hit deadlines without the drama.

Step 4

We Capture Your Property (Properly)

We’ll carry out a LiDAR scan of your property for millimetre accuracy. In some cases, we can even work directly from existing floor plans you already have

We Produce Your Compliant Plan

Within 48 hours of the scan, we deliver a Land Registry compliant plan that meets every requirement — clear, accurate, and ready to submit.

Step 3

Your Solicitor Submits. You Relax.

We pass the finished plan to your solicitor, who submits it to HM Land Registry. With over 1,000 approvals under our belt, you can be confident yours will be next.

Review on behalf of my parents- Mr & Mrs Sparrow We were really struggling to get our Land Registry plans approved due to confusing and unhelpful advice from a solicitor. Then we spoke to Kev — and what a difference! With just one quick call, he clearly explained what needed to be done and suggested we submit both our own and our neighbour’s plans together. Thanks to his expert advice, everything was approved straight away. He completed the plans quickly, efficiently, and at a very reasonable price. No stress, no hassle — just a great service from start to finish. Absolutely brilliant. Highly recommend Kev to anyone needing Land Registry Compliant Plans.

Kevin is flexible, listens to what has been asked. He is knowlegeable about ideas and suggestions and gives you leave options. The plans were clear to read and were done to a professional high standard. If you live in Essex and want a good value price then Kevin is the man to contact. My plans were submitted on Monday as the price is going out and they were done in a timely manner.

Kev from Surv Design was incredibly helpful when we needed land registry compliant plans drawn up for our leasehold property. After a couple of months when our buyers solicitor came back asking for revisions to be made, we received these within a couple of days. Thank you Kev for making a stressful process much easier! We are very grateful for your time and help!

Kev and the team have been amazing at working with me to ensure my planning application goes through smoothly. I live in a conservation area so it was daunting to even begin the process but Kev put me at ease straight away. Communication has been great and I would highly recommend Surv Design.

My experience in dealing with Mr Kev Miller of Essex Architects and Party Wall Surveyors is one of thankfulness. Having discussed my problem with Kev, which he fully understood, I sent him some follow-up details which were used by him to give a quick response. I am extremely grateful for his time, knowledge and understanding in dealing with my problem.

Land Registry Compliant Plans

“Property transactions often require a plan that meets HM Land Registry’s mapping and presentation standards. SurvDesign prepares accurate, clearly annotated lease and title plans that show boundaries, demised areas and rights of way so applications are accepted first time.”

What Is a Land Registry Compliant Plan?

A plan that follows HM Land Registry (HMLR) guidance on scale, orientation, colouring and clarity so the legal extent of property can be recorded unambiguously.

Lease plan vs title plan

A lease plan defines the demised premises within a building or estate and is referenced in the lease. A title plan illustrates the registered title extent for freehold/leasehold ownership.

Lease plan vs title plan

A lease plan defines the demised premises within a building or estate and is referenced in the lease. A title plan illustrates the registered title extent for freehold/leasehold ownership.

What Your Plan Will Show

Boundaries & scale

A clearly edged boundary at an appropriate scale (typically 1:100 to 1:500 for site plans and 1:100 or 1:200 for internal layouts) with dimensions where needed.

Demised area, common parts & rights

Colour‑coded areas for demised premises, common parts, rights of way and areas reserved. Notes explain any shared structures or retained parts.

Access, parking & outbuildings

Marked entrances/exits, bin/bike stores, parking bays, garages and external spaces within or outside the demise.

When You Need One

New leases & sales

Required for granting or varying leases, especially where the extent differs from existing records.

Transfers of part & split titles

Needed when dividing land or buildings into multiple titles or altering boundaries.

Resolving boundary questions

Helpful evidence in boundary clarifications and deed updates.
