A floor plan service built around how estate agents work

Floor plans for estate agents do not have to mean booking a surveyor or buying specialist software. With Sketchplan, your team sketches and measures during a valuation, photography or instruction appointment you are already making, uploads the notes, and receives a professional floor plan suitable for Rightmove, Zoopla, OnTheMarket and property particulars — based on the measurements you supply.

Agency workflow

Capture the floor plan during visits you already make

Agents are normally already visiting the property to conduct a valuation or market appraisal, meet the vendor, take marketing notes, arrange or capture photography, check room details and prepare the property particulars.

Instead of arranging another appointment for a surveyor or photographer to return, your team can sketch the layout and record the main measurements while already at the property. Upload the notes after the appointment and Sketchplan handles the professional redrawing.

Avoid another property visit

Reduce the need to coordinate a separate measuring appointment with the vendor, tenant or landlord.

Get listings prepared sooner

Submit the sketch as soon as the appointment is complete so the floor plan can be prepared alongside the photography and particulars.

Keep control of your costs

Pay for the plans you need without purchasing specialist scanning equipment or maintaining another software subscription.

Deliver a consistent agency style

Use clean and consistent floor plans across every negotiator, branch and instruction.

Strengthen your marketing package

Make professional floor plans part of your standard sales or lettings presentation.

Handle occasional or regular orders

Use Sketchplan for selected premium instructions or integrate it into a higher-volume agency workflow.

How it works

How it works for estate agents

Four clear steps from a valuation sketch to a portal-ready floor plan — without specialist software or a separate measuring appointment.

  1. 1

    Sketch the property

    Draw each floor separately and show how the rooms connect. The sketch does not need to be neat or drawn to scale.

  2. 2

    Add the measurements

    Record the main wall dimensions and mark doors, windows, stairs, built-in cupboards and unusual features. Prefer metres or millimetres.

  3. 3

    Upload your notes

    Photograph or scan the sketch and upload it through the Sketchplan ordering platform. Include extra notes or property photographs where the layout is difficult to explain.

  4. 4

    Receive the finished plan

    Sketchplan redraws the information into a clean, professional floor plan suitable for online portals, brochures and property particulars.

What you receive

What the finished floor plan can include

A clean, marketing-ready plan drawn from the sketch and measurements you provide — not an on-site certified survey.

  • Room names
  • Room dimensions
  • Doors and windows
  • Hallways and landings
  • Staircases
  • Built-in cupboards and storage
  • Bay windows
  • Conservatories
  • Garages
  • Balconies and terraces
  • Gardens or external areas where supported and clearly supplied
  • Floor-level labels
  • Total area where offered and supported by the supplied measurements
  • Clean image files suitable for portals and print
  • Consistent presentation across multiple properties

Your finished plan reflects the information you provide

Sketchplan redraws the customer’s sketch and measurements. It does not independently visit, inspect or measure the property.

The accuracy of the finished floor plan depends on the accuracy and completeness of the sketch and measurements supplied. Sketchplan checks the information for obvious inconsistencies, but cannot independently verify dimensions without attending the property.

Examples

Sales & lettings

Floor plans for sales and lettings

Sketchplan supports different agency departments with the same sketch-and-redraw workflow — from first instruction through to ongoing property management.

Residential sales

Produce clear floor plans for property portals, brochures, valuation presentations and sales particulars.

Residential lettings

Help prospective tenants understand room arrangement, storage, access and property layout before arranging a viewing.

New instructions

Capture the sketch during the market appraisal or instruction appointment and begin preparing the marketing package immediately.

Property management

Redraw older plans or create clear reference layouts from existing measurements and notes.

HMOs and room lets

Produce clear layout plans showing bedroom positions, shared areas and circulation where suitable for marketing or internal reference. Marketing plans do not automatically satisfy HMO licensing, fire safety or statutory requirements.

Land and new homes teams

Create clean marketing layouts from supplied sketches, existing plans or developer information where supported.

Help buyers understand the property before they view

A professional floor plan complements photography. It shows how rooms connect across a property — information that is harder to piece together from photos alone.

Photographs show rooms; floor plans show how they connect

Buyers and tenants can assess the position of bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas, and understand stairs, storage and circulation before they book a viewing.

Help people decide whether the property is suitable

A clear layout makes it easier to judge whether a terraced house, flat, maisonette or HMO room arrangement matches what someone is looking for — before they travel to view.

Support a more complete marketing package

Vendors and landlords may see a professional floor plan as part of a thorough presentation alongside photography and well-written property particulars.

Strengthen your pitch for the instruction

When competing for an instruction, including floor plans in the proposed marketing package can demonstrate a clear, consistent approach to presenting the property.

Winning instructions

Make floor plans part of your valuation presentation

When a vendor compares several agents, the quality and completeness of the proposed marketing package can influence their decision. Offering professional photography, accurate particulars and a clear floor plan demonstrates a thorough approach to presenting the property.

  • Show vendors what their finished floor plan could look like.
  • Explain that the layout will appear across the online listing and brochure.
  • Present a consistent agency marketing standard.
  • Include floor plans across standard, premium or enhanced marketing packages.
  • Avoid explaining complex scanning equipment or measuring technology.

Compare options

A simpler way to produce property floor plans

With Sketchplan, your team captures the layout and measurements while already at the property, and the professional redrawing is handled for you. This avoids the learning curve of specialist software and can reduce the need for a separately booked appointment.

Sketchplan assumes a tape or laser measure and something to sketch on — tools most agents already carry. Software, survey and scanning needs vary by product and provider. This comparison does not name or rank specific competitors.

Sketch tips

Your sketch does not need to look professional

Readability and completeness matter more than presentation. A clear layout with main wall measurements is enough for Sketchplan to redraw.

  • Draw each floor separately.
  • Show the external outline where possible.
  • Mark how each room connects.
  • Record the main wall measurements in metres or millimetres.
  • Mark the position of doors and windows.
  • Show the direction of stairs.
  • Include cupboards, utility spaces and en suites.
  • Label rooms clearly.
  • Note ceiling restrictions, split levels or unusual angles where relevant.
  • Add overall dimensions when available.
  • Photograph the sketch directly from above.
  • Check that all handwriting and measurements are visible.
  • Include additional photographs or notes for complex layouts.
