Our San Francisco As-Built Drawing Services— Measured Drawings & Floor Plans
We provide LiDAR-based as-built services across San Francisco, supplying measured drawings, accurate floor plans, elevations, and 3D models in CAD and Revit. Our team documents existing conditions for architects, contractors, engineers, developers, and property owners to support renovation, restoration, and new-design workflows.
San Francisco and Bay Area Specific Expertise
Our as-built services are tailored specifically to the unique needs of San Francisco and the greater Bay Area. We understand the local building codes, seismic retrofit requirements, and regulations surrounding Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) that are critical for successful project approvals. Whether you are planning a seismic upgrade, an ADU addition, or a commercial building renovation, our team ensures accurate as-built documentation that complies with all regional standards. This local expertise helps streamline permitting processes and supports sustainable, code-compliant construction projects in the dynamic Bay Area environment.
Measured Drawings, CAD & Revit Deliverables
For architects, engineers, and contractors, LiDAR-based as-built services produce reliable measured drawings and CAD-ready files that speed design and eliminate on-site unknowns. Our 3D laser scanning captures millions of points in minutes to document existing conditions with sub-centimeter precision (typical ±2–3 mm; accuracy depends on site conditions and range).
We routinely provide sample deliverables (sample DWG and point-cloud extract) so clients can verify format and level of detail before a job starts.

Why Choose LiDAR Scanning in San Francisco
We combine LiDAR scanning with focused field verification to document existing conditions for historic projects. Our measured drawings and reports capture ornate facades, interior millwork, and irregular geometries with the attention to detail preservation architects expect—producing compliance-ready plans and files to support Historic Preservation Commission review and adaptive reuse work.
From downtown high-rises to neighborhood retail, our commercial as-built services give developers, property managers, and contractors the measured drawings, CAD/BIM files, and site information needed to advance construction and leasing decisions. We capture accurate floor plans, elevations, MEP information, and point clouds to support tenant improvements, seismic retrofits, and construction coordination.
Measured floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, and MEP capture minimize site disruption and accelerate TI design. Our precise plans reduce coordination time between architects, engineers, and contractors and help keep your project on schedule.
We document existing conditions for soft-story upgrades and seismic retrofit programs, supplying structural-ready files that engineers use for effective retrofit design and permitting.
Certified BOMA area calculations and rentable-area plans support leasing strategy and ensure correct billable space. Ask for sample DWG and Revit exports to verify format and level of detail.
Case Study: Historic Building Scan in San Francisco
One of our recent projects involved scanning a historic Victorian-era building in San Francisco’s Pacific Heights neighborhood. The project required capturing intricate architectural details and irregular geometries to support a sensitive restoration and adaptive reuse plan. Using LiDAR scanning combined with thorough field verification, we produced highly detailed as-built drawings, including floor plans, exterior elevations, roof plans, and MEP layouts. Our precise point cloud data allowed the preservation architects to develop restoration strategies that honored the building’s original design while meeting modern code requirements. This project exemplifies our commitment to quality, attention to detail, and expertise in handling complex San Francisco building projects.
