Capture what machines can’t
Visual surveys remain essential for many roads and footways
Visual Condition Surveys
Trusted, consistent defect data for places where automation can’t reach.
When You Need Eyes on the Surface
Not every asset can be surveyed by machine. From footways and rural roads to high-footfall urban areas, many surface types still require human judgment-delivered in a structured, standardised format.
WDM’s Visual Condition Surveys provide the accuracy, consistency, and quality control you need to make evidence-based decisions. Whether for routine monitoring, targeted schemes, or funding submissions, our certified teams collect what automated surveys can’t-without compromising on speed or reliability.
We also offer other visual survey types including RMMS, Safety Inspections, and NRMCS-all backed by comprehensive planning, QA, and data delivery processes.
Why WDM?
We’ve delivered thousands of UKPMS-compliant visual surveys across the UK. Our methods remove the inconsistency often associated with manual inspections-combining certified surveyors, software tools, and tightly managed QA processes.
Whether you’re targeting footways, shared surfaces, or rural carriageways, WDM ensures you get accurate, auditable results to back every maintenance decision.
Professional Assessments with Proven Methods
Our in-house surveyors use accredited software and tailored approaches depending on the asset and level of detail required. Each method is aligned to UKPMS and delivers directly usable outputs for maintenance planning.
