Residential Construction 3D Laser Scanning & Drone Services

Existing Conditions 3D laser scanning services and drone imagery services provide accurate, high-quality residential as-built drawings, models, and virtual tours that can be used to make decisions about every aspect of your home renovation project. The accurate LiDAR point clouds we capture removes human error from the documentation process, and can be transformed into 2D CAD drawings, floorplans, elevations, sections, reflected ceiling plans, 3D BIM models, and drone video and images, delivering precise as-built details to plan renovations, maintenance, and repairs. Incorporating 3D laser scanning into your residential construction project is a strategic investment that can lead to substantial cost savings over time.

What are the Benefits of 3D Laser Scanning Residential Homes?

Accurate and Efficient Data Capture

When as-built drawings do not match the current conditions, making changes to the property could result in costly mistakes during construction. We have extensive experience working with homeowners, who trust us to deliver residential as-built documentation with unparalleled accuracy and efficiency.

Reliable Documentation

Our 3D laser scanning services, 2D CAD drawings, 3D BIM models, and drone video & imagery provide comprehensive as-built measurements of existing site conditions to better estimate renovation costs and avoid unnecessary demolition or rework due to inaccurate assumptions about the house layout.

Streamline Workflows

Accurate as-builts help to coordinate with architects and contractors for smoother project execution. By trusting the experts at Existing Conditions, you will receive exact locations of structural elements, MEP, and utility lines to prevent errors and accidents during renovations, ensuring that accuracy and safety is maintained throughout any construction work.

Improved Collaboration

Utilize accurate digital data and models to improve communication and coordination with your team, identify hazards to keep all workers safe, reduce errors and reworks, and deliver your project on time and on budget.
