Portrait works where inaccurate property information inflates what an organisation pays: business rates, surface water drainage charges and insurance premiums. One method underpins all three, and it starts with measuring the building rather than accepting the record.
For qualifying instructions the LiDAR scan is arranged at no upfront survey charge under signed terms. Our fee applies only if a qualifying reduction, refund or agreed saving is achieved.
Rateable value, classification and reliefs reviewed against the measured property and challenged through VOA check and challenge.
Drainage charges audited against measured surfaces and actual drainage routes, with backdated reclaims where billing was wrong.
Policy data corrected mid-term on measured evidence, so premiums track the real risk rather than a cautious estimate.
A conversation and a desktop review of bills, policies, plans and records. Free, and sometimes the end of the matter.
We confirm whether the case suits the no reduction, no fee route and whether LiDAR capture is needed.
The property is measured and the records are checked against the facts. You see the findings in full.
Challenges, corrections and reclaims are pursued to a conclusion, with outcomes reported in writing.
The same measured capture supports a wider set of work: spatial data packs for projects and facilities teams, and the Landscape and Perspective platforms that hold and interrogate the evidence.
