Standard Property Photography & Floor Plan

Properties must be ready to photograph upon photographer’s arrival. The photographer has several appointments scheduled throughout the day so customers must adhere to their allotted time to avoid an additional charges.

It’s common for the property owner to move items from one room to another during the photo session. Moving highchairs, boxed items, children’s toys, clothes racks are all common. We can easily work around this when the customer plans in advance. Please plan accordingly so we can provide you with the best imagery possible. Most photography packages include 60 minutes of the photographer’s time which is plenty of time for photographs.

Photographing exterior front and garden photos are weather dependant. If it’s drizzling, exterior images cannot be taken and garden shots will only be taken from a rear window or door. Alternatively, you can take 3-4 mobile photos on a sunnier day and we will edit your images at no additional charge. Bin removal is also weather dependant but sometimes, we are able to digitally remove bins at no additional charge.

Appointments do not include photographing amenities such as a fitness centre, rooftop garden, pool, or common areas. An additional £25 fee will apply to photograph amenities and includes up to 30 minutes of additional time. Please select and add this option at checkout to allow the additional time needed.

Floor Plan Appointment Expectations

As the plan is designed to document the total size of the property, the planner will need access to all rooms and auxiliary spaces in order to obtain the measurements so you need to ensure that access is freely available. The planner cannot assume a measurement, or take your word for it, so plan ahead - it will make the appointment much quicker!

Typically, professional plans will include a measurement of the outside spaces (if practical) as well as garages or storage spaces or rooms. They do not typically include the measurement of loft spaces. Planners are only able to document the spaces as they sit and are unable to add any detail for potential space, regardless of whether planning is already obtained (if you have separate documents for this, they should be supplied to the agents or directly to the viewer).

What Floor Plans Does Not Include

Whilst every effort is taken to ensure that all measurements are accurate and provide a fair representation of the property, it should be noted that floorplans are created with a disclaimer that they are ‘Illustrations for identification purposes only’. As a result, they should not be used for any architectural, construction or planning purposes.

In many homes, particularly period properties, not all rooms are perfectly square, even though they might seem like it to the naked eye - or the plan. Therefore, plans should also not be relied upon for the purposes of buying furniture etc. A floor plan should also never be considered as any type of ‘survey’ on the property. No assumptions should be made in relation to structural integrity, location of supporting walls, extension potential or similar.
