As-Built Drawing Services

As-built drawing services redraw a building as it stands from the measurements, photos or scan data supplied with the project, without a site visit, for renovation, record or permit use. Asking for as-built drawing services costs nothing: the quote is free and arrives within 24 hours.

As-built sheets show an existing building as dimensioned plans, elevations and sections

As-built drawing services redraw an existing building as dimensioned floor plans, elevations and sections. The set also has a roof plan and the site plan of the building as it stands. Where the supplied photos, scans or measurements show them, the set also carries reflected ceiling, MEP or structural as-built sheets.

An as-built is drawn from measurements, photos, scans or existing drawings

An as-built starts from hand measurements and sketches, photos with measurements, point cloud or scan data, or existing drawings, PDFs and old plans. Our drafters draw every project remotely, so a sheet shows only what these files show.

Your hand measurements and sketches.
PHOTO02
Photos, with the measurements noted.
SCAN03
Point cloud or scan data you already hold.
OLD PLANS04
Existing drawings, PDFs or old plans to update.

An as-built is as accurate as the measurements it is drawn from

A sheet is drawn to what the supplied measurements, photos or scans show, so its accuracy is the accuracy of the inputs. Where a measurement is missing or two inputs conflict, we ask before drawing and do not guess. We state no tolerance or percentage.

?Missing or conflicting? We ask before drawing.

As-built drawings are kept as records and used to start renovations

Building owners and property managers keep as-built drawings as record drawings. Architects and designers start a renovation or an addition from them, and general contractors read existing conditions from them before tenant or renovation work. Permit sets use them as existing-conditions sheets.

A building that has been scanned can be drawn from its scan

Scan data already in hand goes straight in. We draw from a point cloud supplied with the project and do not scan or measure on site. A Revit model of the building, not drawings, is scan to BIM, which has its own page.

An as-built set reaches you after a self-check, a peer check and a lead's review

An as-built set has three review stages: the drafter's self-check, a second drafter's peer check and a lead's final QA/QC review. Unlimited revisions within the agreed scope go with the set.

QA 1The drafter's self-check
QA 2A second drafter's peer check

FIXED QUOTEPayment waits on your acceptance of the fixed quote: you pay only if you accept the quote. There's no charge for asking for it.
Ahead of any quote request, what an as-built set costs is covered on the cost page.

The as-built set becomes the base for the next drawings

The as-built set is the base the next drawings are drawn on. New or proposed site work for the same project belongs to civil drafting, and a permit set that needs existing-conditions sheets builds on this one.
